Intracellular sensing of viral genomes and viral evasion [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental & Molecular Medicine, 2019
AbstractDuring viral infection, virus-derived cytosolic nucleic acids are recognized by host intracellular specific sensors. The efficacy of this recognition system is crucial for triggering innate host defenses, which then stimulate more specific adaptive immune responses against the virus.

Viral Genomics and Bioinformatics [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2010
From the recognition by Ivanovski in 1892 that tobacco mosaic disease is caused and transmitted by fine pore filtrates [1], viruses have been isolated, characterized, identified and studied from animals, plants, protists, bacteria and even other viruses [2,3].

Packing nanomechanics of viral genomes [PDF]

open access: yesThe European Physical Journal E, 2008
We investigate the osmotic equilibrium between a bulk polyethylene glycol (PEG) solution and DNA tightly packed in a spherical capsid. We base our analysis on the equations of thermodynamic equilibrium in terms of osmotic pressure. The equality between external osmotic pressure of PEG and osmotic pressure of tightly packed DNA gives us the DNA ...

Distinct genetic architectures and environmental factors associate with host response to the γ2-herpesvirus infections

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Disease prognosis after infection with Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus and Epstein-Barr Virus is highly variable. Here the authors carry out epidemiological and genetic analysis of a Ugandan cohort and suggest complex interactions may influence ...

PCIP-seq: simultaneous sequencing of integrated viral genomes and their insertion sites with long reads

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2021
The integration of a viral genome into the host genome has a major impact on the trajectory of the infected cell. Integration location and variation within the associated viral genome can influence both clonal expansion and persistence of infected cells.

Keratinocyte differentiation-dependent human papillomavirus gene regulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) cause diseases ranging from benign warts to invasive cancers. HPVs infect epithelial cells and their replication cycle is tightly linked with the differentiation process of the infected keratinocyte.

INVERTED REPEATS IN VIRAL GENOMES [PDF]

open access: yesFluctuation and Noise Letters, 2005
We investigate 738 complete genomes of viruses to detect the presence of short inverted repeats. The number of inverted repeats found is compared with the prediction obtained for a Bernoullian and for a Markovian control model. We find as a statistical regularity that the number of observed inverted repeats is often greater than the one expected in ...

Development of a minigenome cassette for Lettuce necrotic yellows virus: A first step in rescuing a plant cytorhabdovirus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Rhabdoviruses are enveloped negative-sense RNA viruses that have numerous biotechnological applications. However, recovering plant rhabdoviruses from cDNA remains difficult due to technical difficulties such as the need for concurrent in planta ...

Genomic Analysis of Viral Outbreaks [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Virology, 2016
Genomic analysis is a powerful tool for understanding viral disease outbreaks. Sequencing of viral samples is now easier and cheaper than ever before and can supplement epidemiological methods by providing nucleotide-level resolution of outbreak-causing pathogens.

Complete Genome Sequence of Elephant Endotheliotropic Herpesvirus 4, the First Example of a GC-Rich Branch Proboscivirus

open access: yesmSphere, 2016
A novel group of mammalian DNA viruses called elephant endotheliotropic herpesviruses (EEHVs) belonging to the Proboscivirus genus has been associated with nearly 100 cases of highly lethal acute hemorrhagic disease in young Asian elephants worldwide ...
