Efficient Cavity Searching for Gene Network of Influenza A Virus [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
High order structures (cavities and cliques) of the gene network of influenza A virus reveal tight associations among viruses during evolution and are key signals that indicate viral cross-species infection and cause pandemics. As indicators for sensing the dynamic changes of viral genes, these higher order structures have been the focus of attention ...

Hidden regulation of herpes simplex virus 1 pre-mRNA splicing and polyadenylation by virally encoded immediate early gene ICP27.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2019
In contrast to human cells, very few HSV-1 genes are known to be spliced, although the same pre-mRNA processing machinery is shared. Here, through global analysis of splice junctions in cells infected with HSV-1 and an HSV-1 mutant virus with deletion of

Biphasic euchromatin-to-heterochromatin transition on the KSHV genome following de novo infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The establishment of latency is an essential step for the life-long persistent infection and pathogenesis of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV).

The Role of VP16 in the Life Cycle of Alphaherpesviruses

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The protein encoded by the UL48 gene of alphaherpesviruses is named VP16 or alpha-gene-transactivating factor (α-TIF). In the early stage of viral replication, VP16 is an important transactivator that can activate the transcription of viral immediate ...

The interferon-stimulated gene IFITM3 restricts West Nile virus infection and pathogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The interferon-induced transmembrane protein (IFITM) family of proteins inhibit infection of several different enveloped viruses in cell culture by virtue of their ability to restrict entry and fusion from late endosomes.

Complete genome viral phylogenies suggests the concerted evolution of regulatory cores and accessory satellites. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
We consider the concerted evolution of viral genomes in four families of DNA viruses. Given the high rate of horizontal gene transfer among viruses and their hosts, it is an open question as to how representative particular genes are of the evolutionary ...

Epstein-Barr virus lytic infection promotes activation of Toll-like receptor 8 innate immune response in systemic sclerosis monocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: Monocytes/macrophages are activated in several autoimmune diseases, including systemic sclerosis (scleroderma; SSc), with increased expression of interferon (IFN)-regulatory genes and inflammatory cytokines, suggesting dysregulation of the ...

Genomic architecture of endogenous ichnoviruses reveals distinct evolutionary pathways leading to virus domestication in parasitic wasps

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2020
Background Polydnaviruses (PDVs) are mutualistic endogenous viruses inoculated by some lineages of parasitoid wasps into their hosts, where they facilitate successful wasp development.

Anticancer Gene Transfer for Cancer Gene Therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Gene therapy vectors are among the treatments currently used to treat malignant tumors. Gene therapy vectors use a specific therapeutic transgene that causes death in cancer cells.
