Agglutination of Sindbis Virus and of Cells Infected with Sindbis Virus by Plant Lectins [PDF]
We have examined the agglutination of Sindbis virus and of chick and hamster cells infected with Sindbis virus by two of the plant lectins, concanavalin A and Ricinus communis agglutinin. Both lectins agglutinate the virus by binding to the polysaccharide chains of the envelope glycoproteins.

Sindbis virus replicons and Sindbis virus: assembly of chimeras and of particles deficient in virus RNA [PDF]
Alphaviruses are a well-characterized group of positive-strand RNA viruses. The identification of cis-acting elements in their genomes and their replication strategy have made them useful as vectors for the expression of heterologous genes. In infected cells, the nonstructural proteins, required for replication and transcription of the viral genes, are

Phosphorylated Proteins of Sindbis Virus [PDF]
The capsid and two membrane proteins of Sindbis virus, grown in chicken cells, contain 0.03 to 0.1 mol of phosphate per mol of protein.

Subgenomic reporter RNA system for detection of alphavirus infection in mosquitoes. [PDF]
Current methods for detecting real-time alphavirus (Family Togaviridae) infection in mosquitoes require the use of recombinant viruses engineered to express a visibly detectable reporter protein.

Wolbachia elevates host methyltransferase expression to block an RNA virus early during infection. [PDF]
Wolbachia pipientis is an intracellular endosymbiont known to confer host resistance against RNA viruses in insects. However, the causal mechanism underlying this antiviral defense remains poorly understood.

Sindbis Virus with a Tricomponent Genome [PDF]
ABSTRACT We established a system for propagation of Sindbis virus (SIN)-based replicons in tissue culture in the form of a tricomponent genome virus. Three RNA fragments containing complementing genetic information required for virus replication are packaged into separate viral particles, and each cell produces at least 1,000 packaged ...

In the context of climate change, globalization, and enhanced human traveling, arboviruses continue to represent a threat to public health. West Nile and Usutu viruses are mosquito-borne viruses belonging to the Flaviviridae family (Flavivirus genus) and

Biosynthesis of the Sindbis Virus Carbohydrates [PDF]
The sequence in which sugars are added to the Sindbis virus glycoproteins was studied. Infected cells contain three glycosylated virus-specific proteins: the two virion glycoproteins and the immediate precursor to the smaller virion glycoprotein. Larger Sindbis-specific proteins are not glycosylated.

Analysis of the Results of Monitoring Arbovirus Infections in the Volgograd Region in 2019
Relevance. Natural and climatic conditions, a variety of species composition of arthropods and vertebrates determine the possibility of circulation of arboviruses in the Volgograd region. The existence of natural foci of some arbovirus infections and the

Recombination between Sindbis virus RNAs [PDF]
The genome (49S RNA) of Sindbis virus is a positive-strand RNA of 11.7 kb that consists of two domains. The 5' two-thirds of the RNA codes for the proteins required for replication and transcription of the RNA. The 3' one-third codes for the structural proteins.
