CXCL10 Chemokine: A Critical Player in RNA and DNA Viral Infections. [PDF]
Viruses, 2022 Chemokines constitute a group of small, secreted proteins that regulate leukocyte migration and contribute to their activation. Chemokines are crucial inflammatory mediators that play a key role in managing viral infections, during which the profile of ...

DNA Viral Diversity, Abundance, and Functional Potential Vary across Grassland Soils with a Range of Historical Moisture Regimes. [PDF]
mBio, 2021 Soil viruses are abundant, but the influence of the environment and climate on soil viruses remains poorly understood. Here, we addressed this gap by comparing the diversity, abundance, lifestyle, and metabolic potential of DNA viruses in three grassland

Epigenetic control of Epstein Barr Virus transcription – relevance to viral life cycle? [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2013 DNA-methylation normally leads to silencing of gene expression but Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) provides an exception to the epigenetic paradigm. DNA-methylation is absolutely required for the expression of many viral genes.

Modulation of the functional interfaces between retroviral intasomes and the human nucleosome
mBio, 2023 Infection by retroviruses as HIV-1 requires the stable integration of their genome into the host cells. This process needs the formation of integrase (IN)-viral DNA complexes, called intasomes, and their interaction with the target DNA wrapped around ...

Replication Compartments—The Great Survival Strategy for Epstein–Barr Virus Lytic Replication
Microorganisms, 2022 During Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) lytic replication, viral DNA synthesis is carried out in viral replication factories called replication compartments (RCs), which are located at discrete sites in the nucleus.

HSV-1 DNA Replication—Coordinated Regulation by Viral and Cellular Factors
Viruses, 2021 DNA replication is an integral step in the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) life cycle that is coordinated with the cellular DNA damage response, repair and recombination of the viral genome, and viral gene transcription.
