The RING-CH ligase K5 antagonizes restriction of KSHV and HIV-1 particle release by mediating ubiquitin-dependent endosomal degradation of tetherin [PDF]
Tetherin (CD317/BST2) is an interferon-induced membrane protein that inhibits the release of diverse enveloped viral particles. Several mammalian viruses have evolved countermeasures that inactivate tetherin, with the prototype being the HIV-1 Vpu ...

Molecular, genetic, virological, and biochemical analysis in combination with global proteome and phosphoproteome profiling and functional assays were applied to study the role of PR130 in the context of HSV‐1 replication. The observations reveal that host‐intrinsic mechanisms regulate HSV‐1 replication and highlight PR130 as a susceptibility factor of

Human herpesvirus 6A accelerates AIDS progression in macaques
Although HIV is the necessary and sufficient causative agent of AIDS, genetic and environmental factors markedly influence the pace of disease progression.

Pseudorabies virus (PRV), an emerging zoonotic α‐herpesvirus, causes life‐threatening human encephalitis. We identified a broad‐spectrum neutralizing antibody 6F7 targeting PRV gD. It blocks gD‐Nectin‐1 binding and membrane fusion, inhibiting replication across all PRV variants, representing a promising candidate for anti‐PRV therapy.

Construction and characterization of a glycoprotein E deletion mutant of bovine herpesvirus type 1.2 strain isolated in Brazil [PDF]
This paper describes the construction and characterization of a Brazilian strain of bovine herpesvirus type 1.2a (BoHV-1.2a) with a deletion of the glycoprotein E (gE) gene. The deletion was introduced by co-transfection of a deletion fragment containing

Clinical‐Stage Nanatinostat Triggers Productive Epstein‐Barr Virus Lytic Replication
ABSTRACT A phase 1b/2 study of the all‐oral “kick‐and‐kill” combo nanatinostat + valganciclovir (nana‐val) showed a ~40% overall response rate in patients with relapsed/refractory Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV)‐associated lymphomas. Despite the promising results in these difficult‐to‐treat cancers, there is little known about the effects of nanatinostat on ...

Human herpesvirus-6A and -6B encode viral immunoevasins that downregulate class I MHC molecules [PDF]
Like all other members of the herpesvirus family, the closely related human herpesviruses-6 and -7 (HHV-6,7) persist in their host throughout life. In so doing, without exception, every member of the herpesvirus family has evolved mechanisms to avoid ...

ABSTRACT The infection theory of dementia states that viral infections and chronic inflammation play a role in its pathogenesis. We aimed to test whether testing positive for inherited chromosomally‐integrated human herpesvirus 6 (iciHHV‐6) is associated with an increased dementia incidence, inflammation, and other dementia risk factors. We included n =

Comparative genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic reannotation of human herpesvirus 6
Background Human herpesvirus-6A and -6B (HHV-6) are betaherpesviruses that reach > 90% seroprevalence in the adult population. Unique among human herpesviruses, HHV-6 can integrate into the subtelomeric regions of human chromosomes; when this occurs in ...

Recent Advances in the Molecular Mechanisms of Bacterial Anti‐Phage Defence Systems
Panoptes as an example for an antiphage system consists of OptS producing a cyclic dinucleotide that prevents activation of OptE, a transmembrane protein. Phage T4 infection introduces the sponge protein Acb2 that adsorbs the cyclic dinucleotide thus activating OptE which disrupts the cell membrane aborting phage infection.
