Cross- and Co-Packaging of Retroviral RNAs and Their Consequences [PDF]
Retroviruses belong to the family Retroviridae and are ribonucleoprotein (RNP) particles that contain a dimeric RNA genome. Retroviral particle assembly is a complex process, and how the virus is able to recognize and specifically capture the genomic RNA (gRNA) among millions of other cellular and spliced retroviral RNAs has been the subject of ...

Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Mechanisms of Messenger RNA Packaging and Export
The packaging and export of messenger RNA (mRNA) are essential cellular pathways that bridge the nuclear and cytoplasmic phases of eukaryotic gene expression. During their nuclear maturation, mRNAs are packaged by proteins into mRNA ribonucleoproteins (mRNPs).

Packaging in a yeast double-stranded RNA virus [PDF]
The yeast virus ScV-L1 has only two genes, cap and pol, which encode the capsid polypeptide and the viral polymerase, respectively. The second gene is translated only as a cap-pol fusion protein. This fusion protein is responsible for recognition of a specific small stem and loop region of the viral plus strands, of 19 to 31 bases in length, ensuring ...

RNA-RNA interactions in viral genome packaging
RNA ist eines der am häufigsten vorkommenden Makromoleküle und spielt bei allen biologischen Prozessen eine wesentliche Rolle. Diese Doktorarbeit besteht aus zwei Projekten, die sich auf die RNA-Struktur und RNA-RNA-Interaktionen bei der viralen Genomverpackung konzentrieren.

Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Packaging host RNAs in small RNA viruses [PDF]
Viruses from all walks of life employ diverse strategies to ensure the specific encapsidation of their own viral genomes and to avoid the packaging of host nucleic acids. While the packaging of host nucleic acid may attenuate viral infectivity, this may also have extended biological implications.

Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

Influenza A virus packaging depends on interactions between nucleoprotein (NP) and viral RNA (vRNA), but the pattern of NP binding is unclear. Using PAR-CLIP, Williams et al.
