BackgroundCoronaviruses such as severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus (SCoV) and mouse hepatitis virus A59 (MHV-A59) have evolved strategies to disable the innate immune system for productive replication and spread of infection.

The influence of viral RNA secondary structure on interactions with innate host cell defences [PDF]
RNA viruses infecting vertebrates differ fundamentally in their ability to establish persistent infections with markedly different patterns of transmission, disease mechanisms and evolutionary relationships with their hosts.

Stimulation requirement and pathogenetic significance of T cells during chronic viral hepatitis.
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and Hepatitis C virus (HCV) are important causes of liver inflammation and fibrosis. More than 500 million people are persistently infected worldwide and consequently are at increased risk of developing chronic liver disease ...

Interaction of hepatitis C virus polymerase with host cell proteins [PDF]
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) interacts with host cell proteins to modify cellular pathways creating a favourable environment that facilitates its replication and persistence.

Impaired antibody response causes persistence of prototypic T cell-contained virus
CD8 T cells are recognized key players in control of persistent virus infections, but increasing evidence suggests that assistance from other immune mediators is also needed. Here, we investigated whether specific antibody responses contribute to control

White spot syndrome virus envelope protein VP28 is involved in the systemic infection of shrimp [PDF]
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is a large DNA virus infecting shrimp and other crustaceans. The virus particles contain at least five major virion proteins, of which three (VP26, VP24, and VP15) are present in the rod-shaped nucleocapsid and two (VP28 ...
