A physical link between the pseudorabies virus capsid and the nuclear egress complex. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Following their assembly, herpesvirus capsids exit the nucleus by budding at the inner nuclear membrane. Two highly conserved viral proteins are required for this process, pUL31 and pUL34. In this report, we demonstrate that the pUL31 component of the pseudorabies virus nuclear egress complex is a conditional capsid-binding protein ...

XMM-Newton X-ray spectroscopy of the high-mass X-ray binary 4U1700-37 at low flux [PDF]
We present results of a monitoring campaign of the high-mass X-ray binary system 4U 1700-37/HD 153919, carried out with XMM-Newton in February 2001. The system was observed at four orbital phase intervals, covering 37% of one 3.41-day orbit.

Toxoplasma gondii Syntaxin 6 is required for vesicular transport between endosomal-like compartments and the Golgi Complex [PDF]
Apicomplexans are obligate intracellular parasites that invade the host cell in an active process that relies on unique secretory organelles (micronemes, rhoptries and dense granules) localized at the apical tip of these highly polarized eukaryotes ...

Neural regulation of cancer: from mechanobiology to inflammation. [PDF]
Despite recent progress in cancer research, the exact nature of malignant transformation and its progression is still not fully understood. Particularly metastasis, which accounts for most cancer death, is a very complex process, and new treatment ...

Equine herpesvirus 1 bridles T lymphocytes to reach its target organs [PDF]
Equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV1) replicates in the respiratory epithelium and disseminates through the body via a cell-associated viremia in leukocytes, despite the presence of neutralizing antibodies. "Hijacked" leukocytes, previously identified as monocytic

The MATSim Network Flow Model for Traffic Simulation Adapted to Large-Scale Emergency Egress and an Application to the Evacuation of the Indonesian City of Padang in Case of a Tsunami Warning [PDF]
The evacuation of whole cities or even regions is an important problem, as demonstrated by recent events such as evacuation of Houston in the case of Hurricane Rita or the evacuation of coastal cities in the case of Tsunamis.

Monitoring of dynamin during the Toxoplasma gondii cell cycle [PDF]
The obligate intracellular protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii actively invades virtually all warm-blooded nucleated cells. This process results in a non-fusogenic vacuole, inside which the parasites replicate continuously until egress signaling is ...

During herpesvirus replication, newly synthesized nucleocapsids exit the nucleus by a vesicle-mediated transport, which requires the nuclear egress complex (NEC), composed of the conserved viral proteins designated as pUL31 and pUL34 in the alphaherpesviruses pseudorabies virus (PrV) and herpes simplex viruses.

The nucleo-cytoplasmic capsid egress of herpesviruses is a unique regulated process that ensures the efficiency of viral replication and release. For human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), the core of the nuclear egress complex (NEC) consists of the pUL50–pUL53 ...

Protein trafficking through the endosomal system prepares intracellular parasites for a home invasion [PDF]
Toxoplasma (toxoplasmosis) and Plasmodium (malaria) use unique secretory organelles for migration, cell invasion, manipulation of host cell functions, and cell egress. In particular, the apical secretory micronemes and rhoptries of apicomplexan parasites
