Modeling and Alanine Scanning Mutagenesis Studies of Recombinant Pokeweed Antiviral Protein [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2000
The Phytolacca americana-derived naturally occurring ribosome inhibitory protein pokeweed antiviral protein (PAP) is an N-glycosidase that catalytically removes a specific adenine residue from the stem loop of ribosomal RNA. We have employed molecular modeling studies using a novel model of PAP-RNA complexes and site-directed mutagenesis combined with ...

Pediatric Pulmonary Epstein‐Barr Virus‐Positive Diffuse Large B‐Cell Lymphoma: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

open access: yesCase Reports in Pathology, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
Non‐Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) is a common malignancy of childhood; however, a lung primary presentation is an uncommon finding, as is finding an association with the Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV). We report the case of a 23‐month‐old female who developed EBV‐associated diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that was initially thought to be pneumonia ...

Immunomodulation and Anti‐Inflammatory Effects of Garlic Compounds

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
The benefits of garlic to health have been proclaimed for centuries; however, only recently have Allium sativum and its derivatives been proposed as promising candidates for maintaining the homeostasis of the immune system. The complex biochemistry of garlic makes it possible for variations in processing to yield different preparations with differences

Evolution of New Variants/Mutants of JE Virus, Its Effect on Neurovirulence, Antigenicity, Host Immune Responses and Disease Transmission in Endemic Areas

open access: yesJournal of Viruses, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
This paper highlights various reasons of evolution of new mutants/variants of JE virus and its effects on neurovirulence, antigenicity, host immune responses, and disease transmission in endemic areas. Virus is reorganizing its genome by making sequence alterations, single site mutations, cluster specific reversions, and amino acid substitutions in ...

Inhibition of herpes simplex virus DNA synthesis by pokeweed antiviral protein [PDF]

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1983
Pokeweed antiviral protein at a concentration of 3 microM inhibited both the synthesis and release of infectious herpes simplex virus type 1 in cell culture by 90 and 99%, respectively. Addition of pokeweed antiviral protein to Vero cell monolayers before virus infection was 10 to 15% more effective in reducing virus yields than was the simultaneous ...

An Update in the Use of Antibodies to Treat Glioblastoma Multiforme

open access: yesAutoimmune Diseases, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
Glioblastoma is a deadly brain disease and modest improvement in survival has been made. At initial diagnosis, treatment consists of maximum safe surgical resection, followed by temozolomide and chemoirradiation or adjuvant temozolomide alone. However, these treatments do not improve the prognosis and survival of patients.

A novel case of autosomal recessive CARD11 loss‐of‐function underlying impaired antiviral immunity and a review of literature

open access: yesClinical &Translational Immunology, Volume 15, Issue 5, 2026.
We report on a patient homozygous for a novel autosomal recessive loss‐of‐function CARD11 variant, with susceptibility to live attenuated virus (LAV) vaccines and impaired clearance of multiple naturally acquired respiratory viral infections. Inborn errors of immunity affecting the CARD11‐BCL10‐MALT1 (CBM) complex should be considered in individuals ...
