Epstein–Barr Virus: How Its Lytic Phase Contributes to Oncogenesis

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Epstein–Barr Virus (EBV) contributes to the development of lymphoid and epithelial malignancies. While EBV’s latent phase is more commonly associated with EBV-associated malignancies, there is increasing evidence that EBV’s lytic phase plays a role in ...

The role of bacteriophages in shaping bacterial composition and diversity in the human gut

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The microbiota of the gut has continued to co-evolve alongside their human hosts conferring considerable health benefits including the production of nutrients, drug metabolism, modulation of the immune system, and playing an antagonistic role against ...

Regulation of Lytic and Non-Lytic Functions of Gasdermin Pores

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 2022
Pyroptosis is a necrotic form of cell death that was initially found to be induced upon activation of inflammatory caspases by inflammasome complexes. Mechanistically, pyroptosis induction requires cleavage of the caspase substrate gasdermin D (GSDMD), and the release of the GSDMD N-terminal fragment, which targets the plasma membrane to form large β ...

Targeting Host Cellular Factors as a Strategy of Therapeutic Intervention for Herpesvirus Infections

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Herpesviruses utilize various host factors to establish latent infection, survival, and spread disease in the host. These factors include host cellular machinery, host proteins, gene expression, multiple transcription factors, cellular signal pathways ...

Replication Region Analysis Reveals Non-lambdoid Shiga Toxin Converting Bacteriophages

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Shiga toxin is the major virulence factor of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC), and the gene encoding it is carried within the genome of Shiga toxin-converting phages (Stx phages).

Unveiling Ecological and Genetic Novelty within Lytic and Lysogenic Viral Communities of Hot Spring Phototrophic Microbial Mats

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2021
Viruses exert diverse ecosystem impacts by controlling their host community through lytic predator-prey dynamics. However, the mechanisms by which lysogenic viruses influence their host-microbial community are less clear.

KSHV Activates Unfolded Protein Response Sensors but Suppresses Downstream Transcriptional Responses to Support Lytic Replication

open access: yesProceedings, 2020
Herpesviruses usurp host cell protein synthesis machinery to convert viral mRNAs into proteins, and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to ensure the proper folding, post-translational modification and trafficking of secreted and transmembrane viral proteins.
