Codon usage of human DNA viruses and its similarity to certain host genes [PDF]
Scientific ReportsCodon usages of DNA viruses had previously been shown to associate with their genome size. Codon usage of various human DNA viruses was compared to those of human genes to further understand viral codon usage and its roles in viral-host interaction ...

Tumor Tropism of DNA Viruses for Oncolytic Virotherapy [PDF]
Viruses, 2023 Oncolytic viruses (OVs) have emerged as one of the most promising cancer immunotherapy agents that selectively target and kill cancer cells while sparing normal cells. OVs are from diverse families of viruses and can possess either a DNA or an RNA genome.

Pervasive Chimerism in the Replication-Associated Proteins of Uncultured Single-Stranded DNA Viruses
Viruses, 2018 Numerous metagenomic studies have uncovered a remarkable diversity of circular replication-associated protein (Rep)-encoding single-stranded (CRESS) DNA viruses, the majority of which are uncultured and unclassified. Unlike capsid proteins, the Reps show

Activation of the DNA Damage Response by RNA Viruses
Biomolecules, 2016 RNA viruses are a genetically diverse group of pathogens that are responsible for some of the most prevalent and lethal human diseases. Numerous viruses introduce DNA damage and genetic instability in host cells during their lifecycles and some species ...

Interactions between Autophagy and DNA Viruses
Viruses, 2019 Autophagy is a catabolic biological process in the body. By targeting exogenous microorganisms and aged intracellular proteins and organelles and sending them to the lysosome for phagocytosis and degradation, autophagy contributes to energy recycling ...

The Intricate Interplay between APOBEC3 Proteins and DNA Tumour Viruses
PathogensAPOBEC3 proteins are cytidine deaminases that play a crucial role in the innate immune response against viruses, including DNA viruses. Their main mechanism for restricting viral replication is the deamination of cytosine to uracil in viral DNA during ...
