Further Characterization of the Bifunctional HIV Entry Inhibitor sCD4-FIT45
Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2017 HIV entry into target cells is a highly sequential and time-sensitive process. In recent years, potent HIV Env-targeting antibodies, such as VRC01, have been identified.

Functional analysis of the Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus Gc glycoprotein [PDF]
, 2009 The virion glycoproteins Gn and Gc of Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus (family Bunyaviridae) are encoded by the M RNA genome segment and have roles in both viral attachment and membrane fusion.

Cell fusion and plasticity [PDF]
Cytotechnology, 2003 Cell plasticity is a central issue in stem cell biology. In many recent discussions, observation of cell fusion has been seen as a confounding factor which calls into question published results concerning cell plasticity of, particularly, adult stem cells.

Disruption of fusion results in mitochondrial heterogeneity and dysfunction [PDF]
, 2005 Mitochondria undergo continual cycles of fusion and fission, and the balance of these opposing processes regulates mitochondrial morphology. Paradoxically, cells invest many resources to maintain tubular mitochondrial morphology, when reducing both ...

Heat Stress-Induced Multiple Multipolar Divisions of Human Cancer Cells
Cells, 2019 Multipolar divisions of heated cells has long been thought to stem from centrosome aberrations of cells directly caused by heat stress. In this paper, through long-term live-cell imaging, we provide direct cellular evidences to demonstrate that heat ...
