VGEA: an RNA viral assembly toolkit. [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2021
Next generation sequencing (NGS)-based studies have vastly increased our understanding of viral diversity. Viral sequence data obtained from NGS experiments are a rich source of information, these data can be used to study their epidemiology, evolution, transmission patterns, and can also inform drug and vaccine design.

The direct and indirect drivers shaping RNA viral communities in grassland soils [PDF]

open access: yesmSystems
Recent studies have revealed diverse RNA viral communities in soils. Yet, how environmental factors influence soil RNA viruses remains largely unknown. Here, we recovered RNA viral communities from bulk metatranscriptomes sequenced from grassland soils ...

Packaging of viral RNAs in virions of adenoviruses [PDF]

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2009
Earlier, we detected viral RNAs packaged in the porcine adenovirus (PAdV) -3 virions. Using Southern blot analysis, we further demonstrated that the viral RNAs were predominantly packaged in CsCl purified mature capsids (containing viral genome) than ...

Amuvatinib Blocks SARS-CoV-2 Infection at the Entry Step of the Viral Life Cycle

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the causative agent of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). SARS-CoV-2 propagation is mediated by the protein interaction between viral proteins and host cells.

Defective viral genomes as therapeutic interfering particles against flavivirus infection in mammalian and mosquito hosts

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Defective viral genomes (DVGs) can interfere with virus replication and provide a potential approach to control infection. Here, Rezelj et al. use a combined experimental evolution and computational approach to identify DVG sequences that optimally ...

Reovirus Low-Density Particles Package Cellular RNA

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Packaging of segmented, double-stranded RNA viral genomes requires coordination of viral proteins and RNA segments. For mammalian orthoreovirus (reovirus), evidence suggests either all ten or zero viral RNA segments are simultaneously packaged in a ...

Viral RNAs Are Unusually Compact [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
A majority of viruses are composed of long single-stranded genomic RNA molecules encapsulated by protein shells with diameters of just a few tens of nanometers. We examine the extent to which these viral RNAs have evolved to be physically compact molecules to facilitate encapsulation. Measurements of equal-length viral, non-viral, coding and non-coding

A viral deubiquitylating enzyme targets viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase and affects viral infectivity [PDF]

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal, 2011
Selective protein degradation via the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) plays an essential role in many major cellular processes, including host-pathogen interactions. We previously reported that the tightly regulated viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of the positive-strand RNA virus Turnip yellow mosaic virus (TYMV) is degraded by the UPS in ...
