Structural Polypeptides of Machupo Virus
Journal of General Virology, 1978 The structural proteins of an arenavirus pathogen, Machupo virus, were compared to the structural proteins of two previously characterized non-pathogenic arenaviruses, Pichinde and Tacaribe, in SDS-polyacrylamide gels. Similarities in mol. wt. of the major structural proteins from both pathogenic and non-pathogenic viruses were apparent; however, some ...

Coronavirus in human diseases: Mechanisms and advances in clinical treatment
MedComm, Volume 1, Issue 3, Page 270-301, December 2020., 2020 Current mechanisms of anti‐CoV therapeutic strategies. The idea to disturb the normal life cycle of the virus provides significant insights into the clinical treatment strategies. All of SARS‐CoV, MERS‐CoV, and SARS‐CoV‐2 encode structure proteins (like S protein), nonstructure proteins (eg, PLpro, 3CLpro, RdRp, and helicase), and accessory proteins ...

Computational backbone design enables soluble engineering of transferrin receptor apical domain
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 88, Issue 12, Page 1569-1577, December 2020., 2020 Abstract Supply of iron into human cells is achieved by iron carrier protein transferrin and its receptor that upon complex formation get internalized by endocytosis. Similarly, the iron needs to be delivered into the brain, and necessitates the transport across the blood‐brain barrier. While there are still unanswered questions about these mechanisms,

Plasmodium vivax Reticulocyte Binding Proteins for invasion into reticulocytes
Cellular Microbiology, Volume 22, Issue 1, January 2020., 2020 Abstract Plasmodium vivax is responsible for most of the malaria infections outside Africa and is currently the predominant malaria parasite in countries under elimination programs. P. vivax preferentially enters young red cells called reticulocytes. Advances in understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms of entry are hampered by the inability ...

Antibodies to the Glycoprotein GP2 Subunit Cross-React between Old and New World Arenaviruses
mSphere, 2018 Arenaviruses pose a major public health threat and cause numerous infections in humans each year. Although most viruses belonging to this family do not cause disease in humans, some arenaviruses, such as Lassa virus and Machupo virus, are the etiological
