Endogenous Glycoprotein GPM6a Is Involved in Neurite Outgrowth in Rat Dorsal Root Ganglion Neurons
The peripheral nervous system (PNS) has a unique ability for self-repair. Dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons regulate the expression of different molecules, such as neurotrophins and their receptors, to promote axon regeneration after injury.

Similarity Is Not Enough: Tipping Points of Ebola Zaire Mortalities [PDF]
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.

Diverse hepatitis C virus glycoproteins mediate viral infection in a CD81-dependent manner [PDF]
We recently reported that retroviral pseudotypes bearing the hepatitis C virus (HCV) strain H and Con1 glycoproteins, genotype 1a and 1b, respectively, require CD81 as a coreceptor for virus-cell entry and infection.

Gulose as a constituent of a glycoprotein [PDF]
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.

Glycoproteins perform extra- and intracellular functions in innate and adaptive immunity by lectin-based interactions to exposed glyco-determinants. Herein, we document and mechanistically explain the formation of subcellular-specific N-glycosylation ...

Antiviral mechanisms of two broad-spectrum monoclonal antibodies for rabies prophylaxis and therapy
Rabies is an acute and lethal encephalomyelitis caused by lyssaviruses, among which rabies virus (RABV) is the most prevalent and important for public health.

Three-fold mechanism of inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 infection by the interaction of the spike glycoprotein with heparin [PDF]
Heparin has been found to have antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2. Here, by means of sliding window docking, molecular dynamics simulations and biochemical assays, we investigate the binding mode of heparin to the virus spike glycoprotein and the molecular basis for its antiviral activity.

Production, characterization, and antigen specificity of recombinant 62-71-3, a candidate monoclonal antibody for rabies prophylaxis in humans [PDF]
Rabies kills many people throughout the developing world every year. The murine monoclonal antibody (mAb) 62-71-3 was recently identified for its potential application in rabies postexposure prophylaxis (PEP).
