KI and WU Polyomaviruses: Seroprevalence Study and DNA Prevalence in SARS-CoV-2 RNA Positive and Negative Respiratory Samples [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2022 The aim of this work was to study the possible co-infection of KI and WU polyomavirus (KIPyV and WUPyV, respectively) and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in respiratory samples and to detect the seroprevalence of KIPyV and ...

A functional and structural comparative analysis of large tumor antigens reveals evolution of different importin α-dependent nuclear localization signals. [PDF]
Protein SciAbstract Nucleocytoplasmic transport regulates the passage of proteins between the nucleus and cytoplasm. In the best characterized pathway, importin (IMP) α bridges cargoes bearing basic, classical nuclear localization signals (cNLSs) to IMPβ1, which mediates transport through the nuclear pore complex.

Prevalence of DNA of fourteen human polyomaviruses determined in blood donors. [PDF]
Transfusion, 2019 Abstract BACKGROUND Human polyomaviruses (HPyVs), like herpesviruses, cause persistent infection in a large part of the population. In immunocompromised and elderly patients, PyVs cause severe diseases such as nephropathy (BK polyomavirus [BKPyV]), progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (JC polyomavirus [JCPyV]), and skin cancer (Merkel cell ...

Current and Future Point-of-Care Tests for Emerging and New Respiratory Viruses and Future Perspectives [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020 The availability of pathogen-specific treatment options for respiratory tract infections (RTIs) increased the need for rapid diagnostic tests. Besides, retrospective studies, improved lab-based detection methods and the intensified search for new viruses
