Diagnostic Potential of Parechovirus Capsid Proteins [PDF]
ABSTRACT To study humoral and cellular immunity against human parechovirus type 1 (HPEV1), the viral capsid proteins VP0, VP1, and VP3 were expressed and purified as glutathione S -transferase (GST)-tagged recombinant proteins. The fusion proteins were used to raise antisera in rabbits.

A kinase chaperones hepatitis B virus capsid assembly and captures capsid dynamics in vitro. [PDF]
The C-terminal domain (CTD) of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) core protein is involved in regulating multiple stages of the HBV lifecycle. CTD phosphorylation correlates with pregenomic-RNA encapsidation during capsid assembly, reverse transcription, and viral ...

The capsid protein of human immunodeficiency virus: designing inhibitors of capsid assembly [PDF]
The mature capsid of human immunodeficiency virus, HIV‐1, is formed by the assembly of copies of a capsid protein (CA). The C‐terminal domain of CA, CTD, is able to homodimerize and most of the dimerization interface is formed by a single α‐helix from each monomer.

Assembly and Translocation of Papillomavirus Capsid Proteins [PDF]
ABSTRACT The major and minor capsid proteins of polyomavirus are preassembled in the cytoplasm and translocated to the nucleus only as a VP1-VP2/VP3 complex. In this study, we describe independent nuclear translocation of the L1 major protein and the L2 minor capsid protein of human papillomavirus type 33 by several approaches.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

The capsid proteins of orthoflavivirus are interchangeable for West Nile virus assembly
Orthoflavivirus virions consist of an envelope enclosing a nucleocapsid core. A critical step in orthoflavivirus assembly is the encapsidation of genomic RNA by the capsid protein to form the nucleocapsid.

The Hsv Ul17 Protein: Its Role In Capsid Assembly, Tegumentation, And Intranuclear Capsid Mobility [PDF]
Employing a novel anti-pUL17 antibody I have resolved details of the physical relationship between the minor capsid protein, pUL17, and the herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) capsid and tegument layers.
