Distinct stages in the recognition, sorting, and packaging of proTGFα into COPII-coated transport vesicles. [PDF]
In addition to its role in forming vesicles from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), the coat protein complex II (COPII) is also responsible for selecting specific cargo proteins to be packaged into COPII transport vesicles.

Portal protein functions akin to a DNA-sensor that couples genome-packaging to icosahedral capsid maturation. [PDF]
Tailed bacteriophages and herpesviruses assemble infectious particles via an empty precursor capsid (or \u27procapsid\u27) built by multiple copies of coat and scaffolding protein and by one dodecameric portal protein.

A two-stage mechanism of viral RNA compaction revealed by single molecule fluorescence [PDF]
Long RNAs often exist as multiple conformers in equilibrium. For the genomes of single-stranded RNA viruses, one of these conformers must include a compacted state allowing the RNA to be confined within the virion.

In situ structures of the genome and genome-delivery apparatus in a single-stranded RNA virus. [PDF]
Packaging of the genome into a protein capsid and its subsequent delivery into a host cell are two fundamental processes in the life cycle of a virus. Unlike double-stranded DNA viruses, which pump their genome into a preformed capsid, single-stranded ...

Bacteriophages and their structural organisation [PDF]
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 ...

Pepper Mild Mottle Virus Coat Protein Alone Can Elicit the Capsicum spp. L3 Gene-Mediated Resistance
The pepper mild mottle virus (PMMoV-S) (an L3 hypersensitive response [HR]-inducer strain) coat protein was expressed in Capsicum chinense (L3L3) plants with the heterologous potato virus X (PVX)-based expression system.

A Distance-Weighted Interaction Map Reveals a Previously Uncharacterized Layer of the Bacillus subtilis Spore Coat [PDF]
SummaryBacillus subtilis spores are encased in a protein assembly called the spore coat that is made up of at least 70 different proteins. Conventional electron microscopy shows the coat to be organized into two distinct layers. Because the coat is about
