Why enveloped viruses need cores -- the contribution of a nucleocapsid core to viral budding [PDF]
, 2017 During the alphavirus lifecycle, a nucleocapsid core buds through the cell membrane to acquire an outer envelope of lipid membrane and viral glycoproteins. However, the presence of a nucleocapsid core is not required for assembly of infectious particles.

Distant sequence similarity between hepcidin and the novel coronavirus spike glycoprotein: a potential hint at the possibility of local iron dysregulation in COVID-19 [PDF]
Biol. Direct 15 (2020) 19, 2020 The spike glycoprotein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19, has attracted attention for its vaccine potential and binding capacity to host cell surface receptors. Much of this research focus has centered on the ectodomain of the spike protein. The ectodomain is anchored to a transmembrane region, followed by a cytoplasmic tail.

A Novel Class of Elicitin-like Genes from Phytophthora infestans
Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1997 Elicitins are a family of structurally related proteins that induce hypersensitive response in specific plant species. Two Phytophthora infestans cDNAs, inf2A and inf2B, potentially encoding novel elicitin-like proteins, were isolated from a cDNA library

Similarity Is Not Enough: Tipping Points of Ebola Zaire Mortalities [PDF]
, 2014 In early 2014 an outbreak of a slightly mutated Zaire Ebola subtype appeared in West Africa which is less virulent than 1976 and 1994 strains. The numbers of cases per year appear to be ~ 1000 times larger than the earlier strains, suggesting a greatly enhanced transmissibility.

Gulose as a constituent of a glycoprotein [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1992 The aldohexose gulose was identified as a constituent of a hydroxyproline‐rich glycopeptide derived from the glycoprotein SSG 185. This glycoprotein is part of the extracellular matrix of the green alga Volvox carteri. The gulose residue occupies a terminal position in the corresponding saccharide.
