Generation of an Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell‐Derived Alveolar Type II In Vitro Model to Study Influenza A Virus Infection and Drug Treatments

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Patient‐specific induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can be differentiated into alveolar type II cells (iAT2s), expanded as 3D alveolospheres, and grown at physiologically relevant air–liquid interface (ALI). This study shows for the first time the infectability of iAT2s by the influenza A virus (IAV) and proves their responsiveness to the well ...

Guanylate-binding protein 5 antagonizes viral glycoproteins independently of furin processing

mBio
Guanylate-binding protein (GBP) 5 is an interferon-inducible cellular factor with broad anti-viral activity. Recently, GBP5 has been shown to antagonize the glycoproteins of a number of enveloped viruses, in part by disrupting the host enzyme furin. Here

Conformational and lipid bilayer-perturbing properties of Marburg virus GP2 segments containing the fusion loop and membrane-proximal external region/transmembrane domain

Heliyon, 2019
Fusion of host and viral membranes is a crucial step during infection by enveloped viruses. In the structurally-defined “class I″ viral glycoproteins, the formation of a highly stable α-helical bundle by the ectodomain of the fusion subunit (e.g., GP2 ...
