Pharmacological Induction of Heme Oxygenase-1 Impairs Nuclear Accumulation of Herpes Simplex Virus Capsids upon Infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is an inducible enzyme that is expressed in response to physical and chemical stresses, such as ultraviolet radiation, hyperthermia, hypoxia, reactive oxygen species (ROS), as well as cytokines, among others.

Genetic Code Expansion and Bio-Orthogonal Labeling Reveal Intact HIV-1 Capsids inside the Nucleus

open access: yesmBio, 2022
Microscopy is one of the few techniques that can directly observe the HIV-1 capsid as it traverses the cell. However, an extrinsic or intrinsic label is needed to facilitate detection and this can perturb capsid behavior. Now, S. Schifferdecker, V. Zila,

Maturation of Papillomavirus Capsids [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2005
ABSTRACT The papillomavirus capsid is a nonenveloped icosahedral shell formed by the viral major structural protein, L1. It is known that disulfide bonds between neighboring L1 molecules help to stabilize the capsid. However, the kinetics of inter-L1 disulfide bond formation during particle morphogenesis have not previously been examined.

The DNA Ejection Process in Bacteriophage λ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Bacteriophages have long served as model systems through which the nature of life may be explored. From a physical or mechanical point of view, phages are excellent examples of natural nanotechnology: they are nanometer-scale systems which depend ...

HIV-1 Capsid Core: A Bullet to the Heart of the Target Cell

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The first step of the intracellular phase of retroviral infection is the release of the viral capsid core in the cytoplasm. This structure contains the viral genetic material that will be reverse transcribed and integrated into the genome of infected ...

How to Assemble a Capsid [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2007
Retroviral capsids are composed of hexagonal arrays of the viral CA protein. In this issue of Cell, Ganser-Pornillos et al. (2007) provide a molecular model of the hexagonal HIV-1 CA lattice obtained from a new electron cryomicroscopic reconstruction. This study reveals the three principal stabilizing interfaces in the capsid lattice and explains how ...

Cluster J Mycobacteriophages: Intron Splicing in Capsid and Tail Genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Bacteriophages isolated on Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2155 represent many distinct genomes sharing little or no DNA sequence similarity. The genomes are architecturally mosaic and are replete with genes of unknown function.

Bacteriophages and their structural organisation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Viruses are extremely small infectious particles that are not visible in a light microscope, and are able to pass through fine porcelain filters. They exist in a huge variety of forms and infect practically all living systems: animals, plants ...

The In Silico Prediction of Hotspot Residues that Contribute to the Structural Stability of Subunit Interfaces of a Picornavirus Capsid

open access: yesViruses, 2020
The assembly of picornavirus capsids proceeds through the stepwise oligomerization of capsid protein subunits and depends on interactions between critical residues known as hotspots.
