FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.

Primate TRIM5 proteins form hexagonal nets on HIV-1 capsids
eLife, 2016 TRIM5 proteins are restriction factors that block retroviral infections by binding viral capsids and preventing reverse transcription. Capsid recognition is mediated by C-terminal domains on TRIM5α (SPRY) or TRIMCyp (cyclophilin A), which interact weakly

Identification and characterization of multiple TRIM proteins that inhibit hepatitis B virus transcription. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Tripartite motif (TRIM) proteins constitute a family of over 100 members that share conserved tripartite motifs and exhibit diverse biological functions. Several TRIM proteins have been shown to restrict viral infections and regulate host cellular innate

Journal of General Virology, 2005 The rotavirus capsid is made up of three concentric protein layers. The outer layer, consisting of VP7 and VP4, is lost during virus entry into the host cell. Rotavirus field isolates can be adapted to high-titre growth in tissue culture by treatment with trypsin and by supplementing the culture medium with trypsin, which cleaves VP4 into two fragments,

Importin 7 mediates the nuclear import of HIV‐1 integrase via a specific interacting interface
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.HIV‐1 integrase enables viral DNA integration into the host genome. By binding to the core domain of the host protein Importin 7 via its C‐terminal domain, the integrase is transported across the nuclear membrane into the nucleus, where integration of the viral genome into host DNA takes place. This translocation is a critical step for subsequent viral

Adeno‐associated virus serotype 2 capsid variants for improved liver‐directed gene therapy
Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract Background and Aims Current liver‐directed gene therapies look for adeno‐associated virus (AAV) vectors with improved efficacy. With this background, capsid engineering is explored. Whereas shuffled capsid library screenings have resulted in potent liver targeting variants with one first vector in human clinical trials, modifying natural ...

Structure of the herpesvirus major capsid protein [PDF]
The EMBO Journal, 2003 Herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) virions are large, complex enveloped particles containing a proteinaceous tegument layer connected to an icosahedral capsid. The major capsid protein, VP5 (149 kDa), makes up both types of capsomere, pentons and hexons. Limited trypsin digestion of VP5 identified a single stable 65 kDa fragment which represents a proposed
