Maturation of retroviruses [PDF]

Current Opinion in Virology, 2019
During retrovirus maturation, cleavage of the precursor structural Gag polyprotein by the viral protease induces architectural rearrangement of the virus particle from an immature into a mature, infectious form. The structural rearrangement encapsidates the viral RNA genome in a fullerene capsid, producing a diffusible viral core that can initiate ...

Endogenous retroviruses of non-avian/mammalian vertebrates illuminate diversity and deep history of retroviruses. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2018
The deep history and early diversification of retroviruses remains elusive, largely because few retroviruses have been characterized in vertebrates other than mammals and birds.

Larger mammalian body size leads to lower retroviral activity [PDF]

, 2014
Retroviruses have been infecting mammals for at least 100 million years, leaving descendants in host genomes known as endogenous retroviruses (ERVs). The abundance of ERVs is partly determined by their mode of replication, but it has also been suggested ...

Retroviral Infection and Commensal Bacteria Dependently Alter the Metabolomic Profile in a Sterile Organ

Viruses, 2023
Both viruses and bacteria produce “pathogen associated molecular patterns” that may affect microbial pathogenesis and anti-microbial responses. Additionally, bacteria produce metabolites, while viruses could change the metabolic profiles of the infected ...

Discovery of an endogenous foamy virus in primitive ruminant chevrotains

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Foamy viruses (FVs) are a class of complex retroviruses that could lead to persistent infections in specific species. FVs have two evolutionary characteristics: the first is co-evolution with the host, and the second is difficulty going through the ...

The extraordinary evolutionary history of the reticuloendotheliosis viruses [PDF]

, 2013
The reticuloendotheliosis viruses (REVs) comprise several closely related amphotropic retroviruses isolated from birds. These viruses exhibit several highly unusual characteristics that have not so far been adequately explained, including their extremely

Complement Proteins as Soluble Pattern Recognition Receptors for Pathogenic Viruses

Viruses, 2021
The complement system represents a crucial part of innate immunity. It contains a diverse range of soluble activators, membrane-bound receptors, and regulators.

Dynein Regulators Are Important for Ecotropic Murine Leukemia Virus Infection [PDF]

, 2016
Indexación: Web of Science.During the early steps of infection, retroviruses must direct the movement of the viral genome into the nucleus to complete their replication cycle.

Molecular evolution of HIV-1 integrase during the 20 years prior to the first approval of integrase inhibitors

Virology Journal, 2017
Background Detailed knowledge of the evolutionary potential of polymorphic sites in a viral protein is important for understanding the development of drug resistance in the presence of an inhibitor. We therefore set out to analyse the molecular evolution

Structural Analysis of Retrovirus Assembly and Maturation

Viruses, 2021
Retroviruses have a very complex and tightly controlled life cycle which has been studied intensely for decades. After a virus enters the cell, it reverse-transcribes its genome, which is then integrated into the host genome, and subsequently all ...
