Complementation of Deletion of the Vaccinia Virus E3L Gene by theEscherichia coliRNase III Gene
This work investigated whether the Escherichia coli RNase III gene, rnc+, could complement vp1080, a mutant vaccinia virus that is deleted of its E3L gene. Like E3L, rnc+ codes for a dsRNA binding protein that contains an additional nucleolytic activity.

Complementation of Vaccinia Virus Lacking the Double-Stranded RNA-Binding Protein Gene E3L by Human Cytomegalovirus [PDF]
ABSTRACT The cellular response to viral infection often includes activation of pathways that shut off protein synthesis and thereby inhibit viral replication. In order to enable efficient replication, many viruses carry genes such as the E3L gene of vaccinia virus that counteract these host antiviral pathways.

Use of a negative selectable marker for rapid selection of recombinant vaccinia virus
Vaccinia virus has been a powerful tool in molecular biology and vaccine development. The relative ease of inserting and expressing foreign genes combined with its broad host range has made it an attractive antigen delivery system against many ...

Modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) is a highly attenuated virus strain being developed as a vaccine for delivery of viral and recombinant antigens. The MVA genome lacks functional copies of numerous genes interfering with host response to infection ...

Variola virus E3L Zα domain, but not its Z-DNA binding activity, is required for PKR inhibition [PDF]
Responding to viral infection, the interferon-induced, double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)–activated protein kinase PKR phosphorylates translation initiation factor eIF2α to inhibit cellular and viral protein synthesis. To overcome this host defense mechanism, many poxviruses express the protein E3L, containing an N-terminal Z-DNA binding (Zα) domain and a C ...

ABSTRACT Teacher well‐being has garnered increasing attention in language education, as it plays a vital role in shaping both their professional lives and student learning. Although its importance is recognised, further research is still needed to gain a more comprehensive understanding of language teachers' well‐being.

At artificial bait sites, raccoon dogs (Nyctereutes procyonoides) exhibited delayed temporal responses to red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) despite dominating direct encounters. In contrast, the invasive masked palm civet (Paguma larvata) showed no significant temporal responses toward either native species (raccoon dogs and red foxes), despite consistently ...

Cholesteryl ester transfer protein decreases high-density lipoprotein and severely aggravates atherosclerosis in APOE*3-Leiden mice [PDF]
OBJECTIVE - The role of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) in the development of atherosclerosis is still undergoing debate. Therefore, we evaluated the effect of human CETP expression on atherosclerosis in APOE*3-Leiden (E3L) mice with a ...
