Multi-virion infectious units arise from free viral particles in an enveloped virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Many animal viruses are enveloped in a lipid bilayer taken up from cellular membranes. Because viral surface proteins bind to these membranes to initiate infection, we hypothesized that free virions may also be capable of interacting with the envelopes ...

Structural conservation in a membrane-enveloped filamentous virus infecting a hyperthermophilic acidophile [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
International audienceDifferent forms of viruses that infect archaea inhabiting extreme environments continue to be discovered at a surprising rate, suggesting that the current sampling of these viruses is sparse.

EMC1-dependent stabilization drives membrane penetration of a partially destabilized non-enveloped virus

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Destabilization of a non-enveloped virus generates a membrane transport-competent viral particle. Here we probe polyomavirus SV40 endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-to-cytosol membrane transport, a decisive infection step where destabilization initiates this non-

A non-enveloped arbovirus released in lysosome-derived extracellular vesicles induces super-infection exclusion.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2020
Recent developments on extracellular vesicles (EVs) containing multiple virus particles challenge the rigid definition of non-enveloped viruses. However, how non-enveloped viruses hijack cell machinery to promote non-lytic release in EVs, and their ...

Role for Influenza Virus Envelope Cholesterol in Virus Entry and Infection [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2003
ABSTRACT Enveloped viruses are highly dependent on their lipid envelopes for entry into and infection of host cells. Here, we have examined the role of cholesterol in the virus envelope, using methyl-β-cyclodextrin depletion. Pretreatment of virions with methyl-β-cyclodextrin efficiently depleted envelope cholesterol from influenza virus and ...

Insights into neutralization of animal viruses gained from study of influenza virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
It has long been known that the binding of antibodies to viruses can result in a loss of infectivity, or neutralization, but little is understood of the mechanism or mechanisms of this process.

A Practical and Scalable VIRADEL Workflow for SARS-CoV-2 Wastewater Surveillance in Resource-Limited Communities

open access: yesCOVID
Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) allows for early surveillance of viral pathogens, including SARS-CoV-2. Simplified low-cost approaches are needed to deploy WBE surveillance in resource-limited small-island settings, where high sensitivity must be ...

Pathogen reduction in human plasma using an ultrashort pulsed laser. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Pathogen reduction is a viable approach to ensure the continued safety of the blood supply against emerging pathogens. However, the currently licensed pathogen reduction techniques are ineffective against non-enveloped viruses such as hepatitis A virus ...

Universal Virucidal Activity of Calcium Bicarbonate Mesoscopic Crystals That Provides an Effective and Biosafe Disinfectant

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
We investigated the virucidal effects in solution of a new type of disinfectant, calcium bicarbonate mesoscopic crystals, designated CAC-717, against various types of virus.

Genome analysis of a Glossina pallidipes salivary gland hypertrophy virus reveals a novel, large, double-stranded circular DNA virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Several species of tsetse flies can be infected by the Glossina pallidipes salivary gland hypertrophy virus (GpSGHV). Infection causes salivary gland hypertrophy and also significantly reduces the fecundity of the infected flies. To better understand the
