Early and Highly Suppressive ART are Main Factors Associated with Low Viral Reservoir in European Perinatally HIV Infected Children [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Future strategies aiming to achieve HIV-1 remission are likely to target individuals with small reservoir size. SETTING: We retrospectively investigated factors associated with HIV-1 DNA levels in European, perinatally HIV-infected ...

A novel cassette method for probe evaluation in the designed biochips [PDF]
A critical step in biochip design is the selection of probes with identical hybridisation characteristics. In this article we describe a novel method for evaluating DNA hybridisation probes, allowing the fine-tuning of biochips, that uses cassettes with ...

Membrane-assisted viral DNA ejection [PDF]
Genome packaging and delivery are fundamental steps in the replication cycle of all viruses. Icosahedral viruses with linear double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) usually package their genome into a preformed, rigid procapsid using the power generated by a virus-encoded packaging ATPase.

Biological Consequences of Tightly Bent DNA: The Other Life of a Macromolecular Celebrity [PDF]
The mechanical properties of DNA play a critical role in many biological functions. For example, DNA packing in viruses involves confining the viral genome in a volume (the viral capsid) with dimensions that are comparable to the DNA persistence length ...

HSV-1 not only in human vestibular ganglia but also in the vestibular labyrinth [PDF]
Reactivation of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) in the vestibular ganglion (VG) is the suspected cause of vestibular neuritis (VN). Recent studies reported the presence of HSV-1 DNA not only in human VGs but also in vestibular nuclei, a finding that ...

Identification of Epstein-Barr virus replication proteins in Burkitt’s lymphoma cells [PDF]
The working model to describe the mechanisms used to replicate the cancer-associated virus Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is partly derived from comparisons with other members of the Herpes virus family.

Drastic reorganization of the nucleus is a hallmark of herpesvirus replication. This reorganization includes the formation of viral replication compartments, the subnuclear structures in which the viral DNA genome is replicated.

Involvement of Host ATR-CHK1 Pathway in Hepatitis B Virus Covalently Closed Circular DNA Formation
The covalently closed circular (CCC) DNA of hepatitis B virus (HBV) functions as the only viral transcriptional template capable of producing all viral RNA species and is essential to initiate and sustain viral replication.
