Inhibitors of the Hepatitis C Virus RNA-Dependent RNA Polymerase NS5B

Viruses, 2010
More than 20 years after the identification of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) as a novel human pathogen, the only approved treatment remains a combination of pegylated interferon-α and ribavirin.

Crystal structure of Zika virus NS5 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase

Nature Communications, 2017
The Zika virus outbreak is a global health threat and there is an urgent need for drugs against the virus. Here the authors present the structure of the RNA-dependent RNA-polymerase domain from Zika non-structural protein 5, which is a template for the ...

Targeting Emerging RNA Viruses by Engineered Human Superantibody to Hepatitis C Virus RNA-Dependent RNA Polymerase

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) is a unique and highly conserved enzyme across all members of the RNA virus superfamilies. Besides, humans do not have a homolog of this protein.

Coronavirus Cell-Associated RNA-Dependent RNA Polymerase [PDF]

, 1981
Infectious, single-stranded, nonsegmented, polyadenylated, genomic RNA has been demonstrated for the avian infectious bronchitis virus (Lomniczi and Kennedy, 1977; Schochetman et al., 1977), the mouse hepatitis virus (Lai and Stohlman, 1978; Wege et al., 1978), and the transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) of swine (Brian et al., 1980), three ...

Biochemical characterization of the fidelity of poliovirus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase

Virology Journal, 2007
Background Putative high mutation rates of RNA viruses are believed to mediate undesirable phenomena, such as emergence of drug resistance. However, very little is known about biochemical fidelity rates for viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerases.

NeoRdRp2 with improved seed data, annotations, and scoring

Frontiers in Virology
RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) is a marker gene for RNA viruses; thus, it is widely used to identify RNA viruses from metatranscriptome data. However, because of the high diversity of RdRp domains, it remains difficult to identify RNA viruses using ...

Functional Importance of the Hydrophobic Residue 362 in Influenza A PB1 Subunit

Viruses, 2023
PB1, acting as the catalytic subunit of the influenza polymerase, has numerous sequentially and structurally conserved regions. It has been observed that the slight modification of residues in PB1 would greatly affect the polymerase activity and even ...

Crosstalk between the ribosome quality control‐associated E3 ubiquitin ligases LTN1 and RNF10

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of the E3 ligase LTN1, the ubiquitin‐like modifier UFM1, or the deubiquitinating enzyme UFSP2 disrupts endoplasmic reticulum–ribosome quality control (ER‐RQC), a pathway that removes stalled ribosomes and faulty proteins. This disruption may trigger a compensatory response to ER‐RQC defects, including increased expression of the E3 ligase RNF10 ...

RNA-dependent RNA polymerases of dsRNA bacteriophages

Virus Research, 2004
Genome replication and transcription of riboviruses are catalyzed by an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP). RdRPs are normally associated with other virus- or/and host-encoded proteins that modulate RNA polymerization activity and template specificity. The polymerase complex of double-stranded dsRNA viruses is a large icosahedral particle (inner core)

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...
