Involvement of Host ATR-CHK1 Pathway in Hepatitis B Virus Covalently Closed Circular DNA Formation
mBio, 2020 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.

Purification of Viral DNA for the Identification of Associated Viral and Cellular Proteins [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2017 The goal of this protocol is to isolate herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) DNA from infected cells for the identification of associated viral and cellular proteins by mass spectrometry. Although proteins that interact with viral genomes play major roles in determining the outcome of infection, a comprehensive analysis of viral genome associated ...

PLoS ONE, 2012 Although HCMV encodes many genes required for the replication of its DNA genome, no HCMV-encoded orthologue of the origin binding protein, which has been identified in other herpesviruses, has been identified.

Replication of Epstein-Barr Viral DNA [PDF]
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2013 Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a paradigm for human tumor viruses: it is the first virus recognized to cause cancer in people; it causes both lymphomas and carcinomas; yet these tumors arise infrequently given that most people in the world are infected with the virus. EBV is maintained extrachromosomally in infected normal and tumor cells.

ATRX promotes maintenance of herpes simplex virus heterochromatin during chromatin stress
eLife, 2018 The mechanisms by which mammalian cells recognize and epigenetically restrict viral DNA are not well defined. We used herpes simplex virus with bioorthogonally labeled genomes to detect host factors recruited to viral DNA shortly after its nuclear entry ...

DNA Scrunching in the Packaging of Viral Genomes [PDF]
The Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2016 The motors that drive double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) genomes into viral capsids are among the strongest of all biological motors for which forces have been measured, but it is not known how they generate force. We previously proposed that the DNA is not a passive substrate but that it plays an active role in force generation. This "scrunchworm hypothesis"

Advances in Cancer Biology - MetastasisWe have investigated the expression of selected genes and miRNAs that have been found to be associated with human cancer-stem cells for their involvement in the neoplastic evolution of our AGMK1-9T7 cell line from a non-tumorigenic status at passage (p ...

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.
