Designer DNA nanostructures for viral inhibition [PDF]

open access: yesNature Protocols, 2022
Emerging viral diseases can substantially threaten national and global public health. Central to our ability to successfully tackle these diseases is the need to quickly detect the causative virus and neutralize it efficiently. Here we present the rational design of DNA nanostructures to inhibit dengue virus infection.

The Nuclear DNA Sensor IFI16 Indiscriminately Binds to and Diminishes Accessibility of the HSV-1 Genome to Suppress Infection

open access: yesmSystems, 2022
Human cells identify invading pathogens and activate immune signaling pathways through a wide array of pattern recognition receptors, including DNA sensors.

Viral DNA Polymerase Inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
© Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2009. All rights reserved. DNA viruses, as well as their host cells, require a DNA-dependent DNA polymerase to faithfully replicate their genomes. Viruses with small DNA genomes, such as papillomaviruses and polyomaviruses, have a limited coding capacity and utilize mainly the host replication machinery for their ...

SV40 utilizes ATM kinase activity to prevent non-homologous end joining of broken viral DNA replication products. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2014
Simian virus 40 (SV40) and cellular DNA replication rely on host ATM and ATR DNA damage signaling kinases to facilitate DNA repair and elicit cell cycle arrest following DNA damage.

Dangerous Liaisons: Long-Term Replication with an Extrachromosomal HPV Genome

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Papillomaviruses cause persistent, and usually self-limiting, infections in the mucosal and cutaneous surfaces of the host epithelium. However, in some cases, infection with an oncogenic HPV can lead to cancer.

Parvovirus b19 DNA CpG dinucleotide methylation and epigenetic regulation of viral expression. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
CpG DNA methylation is one of the main epigenetic modifications playing a role in the control of gene expression. For DNA viruses whose genome has the ability to integrate in the host genome or to maintain as a latent episome, a correlation has been ...

Responsiveness to basement membrane extract as a possible trait for tumorigenicity characterization

open access: yesVaccine: X, 2019
Immortalized cell lines used to produce vaccines are expected to be described in terms of their tumorigenicity. However, current in vivo tumorigenicity assays can be time-consuming and results can be equivocal, especially for weakly tumorigenic cells ...

Cellular Sensing of Viral DNA and Viral Evasion Mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Microbiology, 2014
Mammalian cells detect foreign DNA introduced as free DNA or as a result of microbial infection, leading to the induction of innate immune responses that block microbial replication and the activation of mechanisms that epigenetically silence the genes encoded by the foreign DNA.

DNA vaccination against persistent viral infection [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 1995
This study shows that DNA vaccination can confer protection against a persistent viral infection by priming CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). Adult BALB/c (H-2d) mice were injected intramuscularly with a plasmid expressing the nucleoprotein (NP) gene of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) under the control of the cytomegalovirus promoter.

Parvovirus B19 DNA detectable in hearts of patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, but absent or inactive in blood

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2021
Aims Parvovirus B19 (B19V) is often assumed to be a cause of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), based on the quantification of B19V DNA in endomyocardial biopsies (EMB).
