Recombinant Sheep Pox Virus Proteins Elicit Neutralizing Antibodies

Viruses, 2016
The aim of this work was to evaluate the immunogenicity and neutralizing activity of sheep pox virus (SPPV; genus Capripoxvirus, family Poxviridae) structural proteins as candidate subunit vaccines to control sheep pox disease.

Phylogenetic analysis of strains of Orf virus isolated from two outbreaks of the disease in sheep in Greece

Virology Journal, 2012
Background Although orf is endemic around the world, there are few descriptions of Orf virus strains and comparisons of these strains. We report the sequence and phylogenetic analysis of the partial B2L gene of Orf virus from two outbreaks of the disease

Involvement of C4 protein of beet severe curly top virus (family Geminiviridae) in virus movement. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: Beet severe curly top virus (BSCTV) is a leafhopper transmitted geminivirus with a monopartite genome. C4 proteins encoded by geminivirus play an important role in virus/plant interaction.

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

Substrate‐Dependent Crosslinking by the Cytochrome P450 From Aminopyruvatide Biosynthesis

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Substitutions in the aminopyruvatide precursor peptide altered the C─C linkage formed from a YLY motif by the P450 ApyO to a N─C linkage in a WLY motif. Moreover, constitutional isomers crosslinked by C─C and C─O linkages were formed from YYY or YWY motifs. ABSTRACT Cytochrome P450s catalyze an array of reactions including crosslinking of aromatic side
