A new inhibitor of apoptosis from vaccinia virus and eukaryotes.
A new apoptosis inhibitor is described from vaccinia virus, camelpox virus, and eukaryotic cells. The inhibitor is a hydrophobic, multiple transmembrane protein that is resident in the Golgi and is named GAAP (Golgi anti-apoptotic protein).

The Role of Host Cell Glycans on Virus Infectivity: The SARS‐CoV‐2 Case
Glycans are ubiquitously expressed sugars, coating the cell and protein surfaces. They are found on many proteins as either short and branched chains or long chains sticking out from special membrane proteins, known as proteoglycans.

Virus recognition of glycan receptors
Attachment of viruses to cell-surface receptors is the initial step in infection. Many mammalian viruses have evolved to recognize receptors that are glycans on cell-surface glycoproteins or glycolipids. Although glycans are a ubiquitous component of mammalian cells, the types of terminal structures expressed vary among different cell-types and tissues,

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 ...

Is the TAM Receptor Axl a Receptor for Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis Virus? [PDF]
ABSTRACT A recent publication indicated that overexpression of Axl, a cellular receptor that negatively regulates Toll-like receptor signaling, enhanced the entry of viruses pseudotyped with the glycoprotein of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) in vitro .

Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Identification and expression of a murine cytomegalovirus early gene coding for an Fc receptor [PDF]
Several herpesviruses, including cytomegalovirus, induce receptors for the Fc domain of murine immunoglobulin G (IgG) molecules. Viral genes coding for these receptors have been characterized only for alphaherpesviruses. In this report, we describe a new

Differential utilization of CD134 as a functional receptor by diverse strains of feline immunodeficiency virus [PDF]
The feline homologue of CD134 (fCD134) is the primary binding receptor for feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), targeting the virus preferentially to activated CD4+ helper T cells.
