Infectivity of the DNA from four isolates of JC virus [PDF]
The infectivity of JC virus DNA was demonstrated in its most permissive cell culture, primary human fetal glial cells. The amount of infectivity observed in these heterogeneous cultures varied considerably between batches of cells. Contrary to results obtained with the papovaviruses simian virus 40 and BK virus, the calcium technique (F. L.

A DNA Microarray-Based Assay to Detect Dual Infection with Two Dengue Virus Serotypes
Here; we have described and tested a microarray based-method for the screening of dengue virus (DENV) serotypes. This DNA microarray assay is specific and sensitive and can detect dual infections with two dengue virus serotypes and single-serotype ...

The DNA Polymerases of Vaccinia Virus-infected Animal Cells
Increased DNA polymerase (E.C. 2.7.7.7) activity after infection with vaccinia virus has been found in several different host cell systems (Magee, 1962; Green, Pina & Chagoya, 1964; Jungwirth & Joklik, 1965). Various lines of evidence indicate that this increase results from the formation of a new DNA polymerase (Jungwirth & Joklik, 1965; Magee ...

Virology. A virus that infects a hyperthermophile encapsidates A-form DNA. [PDF]
Extremophiles, microorganisms thriving in extreme environmental conditions, must have proteins and nucleic acids that are stable at extremes of temperature and pH. The nonenveloped, rod-shaped virus SIRV2 (Sulfolobus islandicus rod-shaped virus 2) infects the hyperthermophilic acidophile Sulfolobus islandicus, which lives at 80°C and pH 3. We have used

Histone demethylase LSD1 restricts influenza A virus infection by erasing IFITM3-K88 monomethylation. [PDF]
The histone demethylase LSD1 has been known as a key transcriptional coactivator for DNA viruses such as herpes virus. Inhibition of LSD1 was found to block viral genome transcription and lytic replication of DNA viruses.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...
