Chinese Giant Salamander Iridovirus 025L Is a Viral Essential Gene

open access: yesViruses, 2023
Ranavirus is a large nucleocytoplasmic DNA virus. Chinese giant salamander iridovirus (CGSIV) belongs to the ranavirus genus, and its replication involves a series of essential viral genes.

A novel cassette method for probe evaluation in the designed biochips [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
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 ...

A novel immunity system for bacterial nucleic acid degrading toxins and its recruitment in various eukaryotic and DNA viral systems

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2011
The use of nucleases as toxins for defense, offense or addiction of selfish elements is widely encountered across all life forms. Using sensitive sequence profile analysis methods, we characterize a novel superfamily (the SUKH superfamily) that unites a ...

Replication of Epstein-Barr Viral DNA [PDF]

open access: yesCold 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.

Nucleotide-dependent DNA gripping and an end-clamp mechanism regulate the bacteriophage T4 viral packaging motor. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
ATP-powered viral packaging motors are among the most powerful biomotors known. Motor subunits arranged in a ring repeatedly grip and translocate the DNA to package viral genomes into capsids.

A review of DNA viral infections in psittacine birds.

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Medical Science, 2010
To date, several DNA viral infections have been reported in psittacine birds. Psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD) is characterized by symmetric feather dystrophy and loss and development of beak deformities.

VirSorter2: a multi-classifier, expert-guided approach to detect diverse DNA and RNA viruses

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2021
Viruses are a significant player in many biosphere and human ecosystems, but most signals remain “hidden” in metagenomic/metatranscriptomic sequence datasets due to the lack of universal gene markers, database representatives, and insufficiently advanced

Atomic force microscopy shows that vaccinia topoisomerase IB generates filaments on DNA in a cooperative fashion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Type IB DNA topoisomerases cleave and rejoin one strand of the DNA duplex, allowing for the removal of supercoils generated during replication and transcription.

Brd4 is displaced from HPV replication factories as they expand and amplify viral DNA. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2013
Replication foci are generated by many viruses to concentrate and localize viral DNA synthesis to specific regions of the cell. Expression of the HPV16 E1 and E2 replication proteins in keratinocytes results in nuclear foci that recruit proteins ...
