IFITM3 Reduces Retroviral Envelope Abundance and Function and Is Counteracted by glycoGag
Interferon-induced transmembrane (IFITM) proteins are encoded by many vertebrate species and exhibit antiviral activities against a wide range of viruses.

Upstream-binding factor is sequestered into herpes simplex virus type 1 replication compartments [PDF]
Previous reports have shown that adenovirus recruits nucleolar protein upstream-binding factor (UBF) into adenovirus DNA replication centres. Here, we report that despite having a different mode of viral DNA replication, herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV ...

The role of integration and clonal expansion in HIV infection: live long and prosper
Integration of viral DNA into the host genome is a central event in the replication cycle and the pathogenesis of retroviruses, including HIV. Although most cells infected with HIV are rapidly eliminated in vivo, HIV also infects long-lived cells that ...

Escalation of error catastrophe for enzymatic self-replicators [PDF]
It is a long-standing question in origin-of-life research whether the information content of replicating molecules can be maintained in the presence of replication errors.

Here the authors describe multiple structures of the replicative helicase MCM2-7 in complex with Dbf4-dependent kinase (DDK). These structures reveal why the kinase specifically recognizes the MCM2-7 double-hexamer over the single-hexamer and explain how

Mechanism of Viral Glycoprotein Targeting by Membrane-Associated RING-CH Proteins
Viral envelope glycoproteins are an important structural component on the surfaces of enveloped viruses that direct virus binding and entry and also serve as targets for the host adaptive immune response.

Reversal of terminal differentiation and control of DNA replication [PDF]
DNA replication in mammalian cells occurs in discrete nuclear foci. Here we show that terminally differentiated myotubes can be induced to reenter S phase and show the same pattern of replication foci as cycling cells.

Restriction of Influenza A Virus by SERINC5
Serine incorporator 5 (Ser5), a transmembrane protein, has recently been identified as a host antiviral factor against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 and gammaretroviruses like murine leukemia viruses (MLVs). It is counteracted by HIV-1 Nef and MLV

Genetic and physical mapping of DNA replication origins in Haloferax volcanii [PDF]
The halophilic archaeon Haloferax volcanii has a multireplicon genome, consisting of a main chromosome, three secondary chromosomes, and a plasmid. Genes for the initiator protein Cdc6/Orc1, which are commonly located adjacent to archaeal origins of DNA ...

Chk1 inhibits replication factory activation but allows dormant origin firing in existing factories [PDF]
Replication origins are licensed by loading MCM2-7 hexamers before entry into S phase. However, only ∼10% of licensed origins are normally used in S phase, with the others remaining dormant.
