Enhancement of fish mortality by rhabdovirus infection after immunization with a viral nucleoprotein peptide [PDF]

, 1993
A similar sequence to a mouse immunodominant CTL peptide (SYVLQGN, single-letter amino acid code, conserved amino acids underlined) identified in the nucleoproteins of several strains of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) (37) was found in the ...

Protective Effects of Hydrolyzed Nucleoproteins from Salmon Milt against Ethanol-Induced Liver Injury in Rats

Marine Drugs, 2016
Dietary nucleotides play a role in maintaining the immune responses of both animals and humans. Oral administration of nucleic acids from salmon milt have physiological functions in the cellular metabolism, proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis ...

Strategies for enhancing sensitivity in lateral flow assays

VIEW, EarlyView.
Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are essential for cost‐effective, rapid point‐of‐care diagnostics. However, conventional colourimetric LFAs often lack the sensitivity required for low‐abundance biomarkers. This review evaluates six enhancement strategies: flow modulation, sample preconcentration, advanced reporters, chemical signal amplification, structural

Early Humoral Response Correlates with Disease Severity and Outcomes in COVID-19 Patients

Viruses, 2020
The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by SARS-CoV-2, continues to spread globally with significantly high morbidity and mortality rates. Antigen-specific responses are of unquestionable value for clinical management of COVID-19 patients.

Proteostasis of organelles in aging and disease

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Cells rely on regulated proteostasis mechanisms to keep their internal compartments functioning properly. When these mechanisms fail, damaged proteins accumulate, disrupting organelles, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi, and lysosomes, as well as membraneless organelles, such as stress granules, processing bodies, the ...

Differences in RNA Binding Between Segmented and Non-Segmented Negative-Strand Virus Nucleocapsids

Microorganisms
Segmented and non-segmented negative-strand RNA viruses share the same general pathway for genome transcription, which generates messenger RNA, and genome replication which duplicates the viral RNA.

The nucleoprotein of Marburg virus is phosphorylated

Journal of General Virology, 1994
The nucleoprotein (NP) of Marburg virus (MBG), a filovirus, is encoded by the gene closest to the 3' end of the non-segmented negative-strand RNA genome. Sequence comparison has indicated that NP is the functional equivalent to the nucleoproteins of paramyxoviruses and rhabdoviruses. Expression of recombinant NP in two eukaryotic systems using vaccinia

Human APOBEC3G suppresses homologous recombination and LIG4‐independent end joining in DNA double‐strand break repair

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Chromosomal DNA double‐strand breaks (DSBs) are repaired by homologous recombination and nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ). Recent work has additionally established theta‐mediated end‐joining (TMEJ) as a mechanism for DSB joining. Cells lacking NHEJ and TMEJ can repair DSBs in a homology‐dependent manner.

BLIMP‐1 and CD39 expression define human effector memory regulatory T cells in blood and recall responses to viruses

Immunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.
This study found that BLIMP‐1 is highly expressed in activated effector/memory human regulatory T cells, especially CD39+ Tregs, where it is associated with increased IL‐10 production and a conserved phenotype across blood and lung tissues during immune responses such as SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.

The purification of influenza virus nucleoproteins for x-ray crystallography. [PDF]

, 2017
The object of this work is three influenza virus nucleoproteins (NP). The two major surface glycoproteins, hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA), are currently the main vaccine targets. However, both HA and NA have high mutation rates and as a result
