RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation as a tool to investigate plant miRNA processing interference by regulatory proteins of diverse origin [PDF]
, 2018 Background: Due to the nature of viral RNA genomes, RNA viruses depend on many RNA-binding proteins (RBP) of viral and host origin for replication, dissemination and evasion of host RNA degradation pathways.

Mapping the phosphoproteome of influenza A and B viruses by mass spectrometry [PDF]
, 2012 Protein phosphorylation is a common post-translational modification in eukaryotic cells and has a wide range of functional effects. Here, we used mass spectrometry to search for phosphorylated residues in all the proteins of influenza A and B viruses ...

The interferon-induced exonuclease ISG20 exerts antiviral activity through upregulation of type I interferon response proteins [PDF]
, 2018 The host immune responses to infection lead to the production of type I interferon (IFN), and the upregulation of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) reduces virus replication and virus dissemination within a host.

Viral RNAs Are Unusually Compact
PLoS 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

Small molecules targeting viral
WIREs RNA, 2016 Highly conserved noncoding RNA (ncRNA) elements in viral genomes and transcripts offer new opportunities to expand the repertoire of drug targets for the development of antiinfective therapy. Ligands binding to ncRNA architectures are able to affect interactions, structural stability or conformational changes and thereby block processes essential for ...

Viruses, 2016 Infectious retrovirus particles contain two copies of unspliced viral RNA that serve as the viral genome. Unspliced retroviral RNA is transcribed in the nucleus by the host RNA polymerase II and has three potential fates: (1) it can be spliced into ...

The interplay between viral-derived miRNAs and host immunity during infection [PDF]
, 2019 MicroRNAs are short non-coding RNAs that play a crucial role in the regulation of gene expression during cellular processes. The host-encoded miRNAs are known to modulate the antiviral defense during viral infection.

Nucleotide sequence and genomic organization of an ophiovirus associated with lettuce big-vein disease [PDF]
, 2002 The complete nucleotide sequence of an ophiovirus associated with lettuce big-vein disease has been elucidated. The genome consisted of four RNA molecules of approximately 7ò8, 1ò7, 1ò5 and 1ò4 kb.

Packaging of viral RNAs in virions of adenoviruses
Virology 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 ...

Characterization of the putative wobbly possum disease virus : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Veterinary Virology at Massey University, Manawatū, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2017 The objective of this PhD was to characterise a marsupial arterivirus, termed wobbly possum disease virus (WPDV), and to confirm aetiological involvement of the virus in the development of a neurological disease of the Australian brushtail possum ...
