Reactivation of human herpesvirus-6 in natalizumab treated multiple sclerosis patients. [PDF]
The alpha(4) integrin antagonist natalizumab was shown to be effective in patients with immune-mediated disorders but was unexpectedly associated with JC polyomavirus associated progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) in two multiple sclerosis ...

Brain tumors of owl monkeys inoculated with JC virus contain the JC virus genome [PDF]
The DNA from astrocytomas that developed in adult owl monkeys 16 to 36 months after intracranial inoculation with JC virus (JCV) was examined for the presence of the JCV genome by hybridization to cloned JCV DNA. The JCV genome was found to be integrated into the cellular DNA in all tumors examined.

JC polyoma virus and kidney disease [PDF]
To the Editor: In a recent article, Divers et al.1 describe the interaction between apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) genotypes and JC viruria, and their relationship with nondiabetic nephropathy in African Americans. The authors found that in African Americans with two APOL1 risk alleles, the prevalence of kidney disease was lower for those with JC viruria ...

Human polyomavirus JC virus genome [PDF]
The complete DNA sequence of the human JC virus, which was found to consist of 5,130 nucleotide pairs, is presented. The amino acid sequence of six proteins could be deduced: the early, nonstructural proteins, large T and small t antigens; the late capsid proteins, VP1, VP2, and VP3; and the agnogene product encoded within the late leader sequence ...

JC Virus Agnoprotein Colocalizes with Tubulin [PDF]
The human polyomavirus JC (JCV) encodes an agnoprotein that consists of 71 amino acid residues, with a molecular weight of approximately 8 kDa, from the late protein coding region. The agnoprotein of JCV shares 50% to 60% homology with those of simian virus 40 (SV40) and BK virus (BKV), and the carboxyl-terminal region of JCV agnoprotein is relatively ...
