Identification of Capsid/Coat Related Protein Folds and Their Utility for Virus Classification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The viral supergroup includes the entire collection of known and unknown viruses that roam our planet and infect life forms. The supergroup is remarkably diverse both in its genetics and morphology and has historically remained difficult to study and ...

The Journey of in vivo Virus Engineered Dendritic Cells From Bench to Bedside: A Bumpy Road

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Dendritic cells (DCs) are recognized as highly potent antigen-presenting cells that are able to stimulate cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses with antitumor activity.

In vivo retroviral-mediated transfer of a marker-gene in ornithine transcarbamylase-deficient Spf(ash) mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Gene therapy is a new therapeutic approach for inherited metabolic hepatopathies. The authors studied the potential application of such a strategy to the correction of ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency by in vivo protocol of retroviral-mediated

Impact of BoLA‐DRB3 Polymorphisms on Clonality of Bovine Leukaemia Virus‐Infected Cells of Cattle With Lymphoma

open access: yesHLA, Volume 107, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) infects cattle, integrates into the host genome as a provirus, and induces a persistent infection that remains asymptomatic but can cause leukaemia/lymphoma. Most BLV‐infected cell clones are created by massive depletion, and a few of these infected cell clones expand through the mitotic cycle, leading to the onset

The Role of Viral and Bacterial Infections in the Etiology of Behçet's Disease

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 1, January 2026.
Bacterial and viral pathogens may play a key role in Behçet's disease (BD) pathogenesis by triggering autoimmunity, molecular mimicry, or microbiome disruption. These infectious agents could initiate inflammatory pathways, contributing to BD's diverse clinical manifestations.

Cryo-electron Microscopy Structure of the Native Prototype Foamy Virus Glycoprotein and Virus Architecture.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2016
Foamy viruses (FV) belong to the genus Spumavirus, which forms a distinct lineage in the Retroviridae family. Although the infection in natural hosts and zoonotic transmission to humans is asymptomatic, FVs can replicate well in human cells making it an ...

Strategic Preparedness of Broad‐Spectrum Antivirals for Rapid Response Towards Next Pandemics

open access: yesSmall Science, Volume 6, Issue 1, January 2026.
Nanoengineered broad‐spectrum antivirals (BSAs) represent a transformative approach to pandemic preparedness. Unlike virus‐specific drugs requiring separate development, BSAs act across multiple viral families through nanoengineering strategies that enhance solubility, bioavailability, and host‐targeted activity.

Extension of the viral ecology in humans using viral profile hidden Markov models. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
When human samples are sequenced, many assembled contigs are "unknown", as conventional alignments find no similarity to known sequences. Hidden Markov models (HMM) exploit the positions of specific nucleotides in protein-encoding codons in various ...
