Structures of enveloped virions determined by cryogenic electron microscopy and tomography : Advances in Virus Research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Enveloped viruses enclose their genomes inside a lipid bilayer which is decorated by membrane proteins that mediate virus entry. These viruses display a wide range of sizes, morphologies and symmetries.

Membrane Rafts: Portals for Viral Entry

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Membrane rafts are dynamic, small (10–200 nm) domains enriched with cholesterol and sphingolipids that compartmentalize cellular processes. Rafts participate in roles essential to the lifecycle of different viral families including virus entry, assembly ...

Multi-virion infectious units arise from free viral particles in an enveloped virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Many animal viruses are enveloped in a lipid bilayer taken up from cellular membranes. Because viral surface proteins bind to these membranes to initiate infection, we hypothesized that free virions may also be capable of interacting with the envelopes ...

Brilacidin as a Broad-Spectrum Inhibitor of Enveloped, Acutely Infectious Viruses

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Alphaviruses, belonging to the Togaviridae family, and bunyaviruses, belonging to the Paramyxoviridae family, are globally distributed and lack FDA-approved vaccines and therapeutics.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Enveloped Virus Flocculation and Removal in Osmolyte Solutions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Our ability to reduce infectious disease burden throughout the world has been greatly improved by the creation of vaccines. However, worldwide immunization rates are low.

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Insights into neutralization of animal viruses gained from study of influenza virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
It has long been known that the binding of antibodies to viruses can result in a loss of infectivity, or neutralization, but little is understood of the mechanism or mechanisms of this process.

Hand hygiene for prevention and control of viral infections: the role of Amuchina Gel Xgerm [Accepted for publication]

open access: yesAboutOpen
Introduction: Alcohol-based hand sanitizers are used in healthcare settings, but their efficacy against both enveloped and non-enveloped viruses requires further investigation.
