Recombinant Proteins: A Molecular Tool to Understand Marine Adhesion and to Advance Biomaterials

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 3, 19 January 2026.
The production of recombinant proteins represents a fundamental step in the characterisation of marine invertebrate adhesives and in the development of bio‐inspired glues. The association of these proteins with other components such as ions, proteins, polysaccharides, or polymers enables the fabrication of biomaterials for various healthcare ...

An Open Receptor-Binding Cavity of Hemagglutinin-Esterase-Fusion Glycoprotein from Newly-Identified Influenza D Virus: Basis for Its Broad Cell Tropism

PLOS Pathogens, 2016
Influenza viruses cause seasonal flu each year and pandemics or epidemic sporadically, posing a major threat to public health. Recently, a new influenza D virus (IDV) was isolated from pigs and cattle. Here, we reveal that the IDV utilizes 9-O-acetylated sialic acids as its receptor for virus entry.

Development of a Porcine Cell Line Stably Expressing Ephrin‐B2 for Nipah Virus Research and Diagnostic Testing

Microbiology and Immunology, Volume 70, Issue 1, Page 36-46, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Nipah virus (NiV) is a highly pathogenic zoonotic virus transmitted from bats to humans through pigs as a crucial intermediate host. NiV outbreaks pose significant public health and economic threats, especially for pig farmers. Although the World Organization for Animal Health recommends African green monkey‐derived Vero cells for NiV ...

Influenza Surveillance in the Central African Republic From 2015 to 2018 to Inform Vaccination and Treatment Strategies

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 20, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Surveillance of influenza infections and virus characterisation are essential to guide prevention strategies. In the Central African Republic (CAR), data on influenza viruses are patchy and poorly documented. Objective To study the clinical, seasonal, genetic and phenotypic characteristics of influenza viruses circulating in the CAR

Molecular changes in agroinfiltrated leaves of Nicotiana benthamiana expressing suppressor of silencing P19 and coronavirus‐like particles

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 99-130, January 2026.
Summary The production of coronavirus disease 2019 vaccines can be achieved by transient expression of the spike (S) protein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in agroinfiltrated leaves of Nicotiana benthamiana. Relying on bacterial vector Agrobacterium tumefaciens, this process is favoured by co‐expression of viral silencing suppressor

Expression of a constitutively active nitrate reductase increases SARS‐CoV‐2 Spike protein production in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves that otherwise show traits of senescence

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 204-223, January 2026.
Summary The production of coronavirus disease 2019 vaccines can be achieved by transient expression of the Spike (S) protein of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 in agroinfiltrated leaves of Nicotiana benthamiana, a process promoted by the co‐expression of viral silencing suppressor P19.

[Disulfide maturation of the glycoproteins of influenza virus hemagglutinin and neuraminidase in infected cells].

Voprosy virusologii, 1987
Fractionation by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) demonstrated that in the infected cells the newly synthesized influenza virus glycoproteins, hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA), differ from mature proteins of virus particles. After some time of life in the cells the differences are levelled.
