Capsid Proteins are Necessary for Replication of a Parvovirus [PDF]
AbstractDespite tight genetic compression, viral genomes are often organized in functional gene clusters, a modular structure that might favor their evolvability. This has greatly facilitated biotechnological developments, such as the recombinant Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) systems for gene therapy.

The M gene segment of influenza A virus has been shown to be a contributing factor to the high growth phenotype. However, it remains largely unknown why matrix protein 1 (M1), the major structural protein encoded by M gene, exhibits pH-dependent ...

The consequences of replicating in the wrong orientation: Bacterial chromosome duplication without an active replication origin [PDF]
Chromosome replication is regulated in all organisms at the assembly stage of the replication machinery at specific origins. In Escherichia coli the DnaA initiator protein regulates the assembly of replication forks at oriC.

Identification of a Novel 81-kDa Component of the Xenopus Origin Recognition Complex [PDF]
The Xenopus origin recognition complex is essential for chromosomal DNA replication in cell-free extracts. We have immunopurified the Xenopus origin recognition complex with anti-Xorc2 antibodies and analyzed its composition and properties.

Myxoma virus protein M029 is a dual function immunomodulator that inhibits PKR and also conscripts RHA/DHX9 to promote expanded host tropism and viral replication. [PDF]
Myxoma virus (MYXV)-encoded protein M029 is a member of the poxvirus E3 family of dsRNA-binding proteins that antagonize the cellular interferon signaling pathways.

Regulation of DNA Replication after Heat Shock by Replication Protein A-Nucleolin Interactions [PDF]
Heat shock inhibits replicative DNA synthesis, but the underlying mechanism remains unknown. We investigated mechanistic aspects of this regulation in melanoma cells using a simian virus 40 (SV40)-based in vitro DNA replication assay. Heat shock (44 degrees C) caused a monotonic inhibition of cellular DNA replication following exposures for 5-90 min ...

Srs2 is a super-family 1 helicase that promotes genome stability by dismantling toxic DNA recombination intermediates. However, the mechanisms by which Srs2 remodels or resolves recombination intermediates remain poorly understood.

FAM111A protects replication forks from protein obstacles via its trypsin-like domain
DNA-protein crosslinks represent obstacles on genomic DNA that can hamper progression of replication forks. Here, the authors reveal that FAM111A, a PCNA-interacting protein, plays part in mitigating the effect of protein obstacles on replication forks.
