Nuclear Import of Viral DNA Genomes [PDF]
Traffic, 2003 The genomes of many viruses traffic into the nucleus, where they are either integrated into host chromosomes or maintained as episomal DNA and then transcriptionally activated or silenced. Here, we discuss the existing evidence on how the lentiviruses, adenoviruses, herpesviruses, hepadnaviruses and autonomous parvoviruses enter the nucleus.

Epigenetic control of Epstein Barr Virus transcription – relevance to viral life cycle?
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.

Nature Communications, 2022 cGAS senses viral DNA and forms cytosolic cGAS-DNA granules to mediate anti-DNA viral signaling pathway. Here the authors show that PCBP2 interacts with cGAS and antagonizes condensation of cGAS-DNA granules, thus maintaining host immune homeostasis.

Microbiologia Medica, 2006 Proviral HIV-1 DNA can represent an alternative viral marker to RNA viral load during the follow-up of HIV-1 infected individuals. Sequential blood samples of 12 patients under antiretroviral treatment from 1997 with two NRTIs, who refused to continue ...

Viral oncoproteins target the DNA methyltransferases [PDF]
Oncogene, 2006 Small DNA tumour viruses have evolved a number of mechanisms to drive nondividing cells into S phase. Virally encoded oncoproteins such as adenovirus E1A and human papillomavirus (HPV) E7 can bind an array of cellular proteins to override proliferation arrest. The DNA methyltransferase Dnmt1 is the major mammalian enzyme responsible for maintaining CpG

Preparation of Viral DNA from Nucleocapsids [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2011 Viruses are obligate cellular parasites, and thus the study of their DNA requires isolating viral material away from host cell contaminants and DNA. Several downstream applications require large quantities of pure viral DNA, which is provided by this protocol.

The role of unintegrated DNA in HIV infection
Retrovirology, 2011 Integration of the reverse transcribed viral genome into host chromatin is the hallmark of retroviral replication. Yet, during natural HIV infection, various unintegrated viral DNA forms exist in abundance. Though linear viral cDNA is the precursor to an

Recombination-dependent concatemeric viral DNA replication
Virus Research, 2011 The initiation of viral double stranded (ds) DNA replication involves proteins that recruit and load the replisome at the replication origin (ori). Any block in replication fork progression or a programmed barrier may act as a factor for ori-independent remodelling and assembly of a new replisome at the stalled fork. Then replication initiation becomes

NS1-mediated DNMT1 degradation regulates human bocavirus 1 replication and RNA processing.
PLoS PathogensMethylation of the DNA genome plays an important role in viral gene inactivation. However, the role of DNA methylation in human bocavirus (HBoV) remains unclear.
