Design Principles Of Inorganic‐Protein Hybrid Materials for Biomedicine

Exploration, EarlyView.
Inorganic protein hybrid materials (IPHMs) due to editable structure present unrivalled potential at the intersection of synthetic biology and materials science. The synthesis of IPHMs with a high degree of biosafety from bioactive units represents a shift in material design and synthesis.

The antigenicity of tobacco mosaic virus

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 1999
The antigenic properties of the tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) have been studied extensively for more than 50 years. Distinct antigenic determinants called neotopes and cryptotopes have been identified at the surface of intact virions and dissociated coat protein subunits, respectively, indicating that the quaternary structure of the virus influences the ...

RNAi technology development for weed control: all smoke and no fire?

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Despite the potential of Spray‐Induced Gene Silencing in weed management several critical points such as molecular target, weed species of interest as well as delivery techniques need to be addressed. Abstract RNA interference (RNAi) technology, specifically Spray‐Induced Gene Silencing (SIGS), holds potential as an innovative approach for selective ...

Immunologic Reactions with Tobacco Mosaic Virus. [PDF]

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1928
1. Antisera were produced, separately, in rabbits to normal sap from healthy Turkish tobacco plants and to irus-sap from tobacco plants, affected with mosaic disease. 2. The immunologic reactions of the antisera were studied by means of: (a) Alexin-fixation tests.

Layer‐by‐Layer Assembly of Plant Viruses Utilizing Specific Binding

physica status solidi (a), EarlyView.
A bilayer of the tomato bushy stunt virus (TBSV) is constructed layer‐by‐layer by utilizing the specific interaction between Strep‐Tactin (an engineered type of streptavidin) and modified TBSV with Strep‐Tag II (an engineered type of biotin) side chains. A layer coverage above 84% could be achieved.

The Anatomy of Tobacco Mosaic Virus

, 1957
Publisher Summary This chapter explores those aspects of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) that help in interpreting the structure of the particle. The internal anatomy of the particle has two aspects: how are the protein and nucleic acid disposed relative to one another, and from what sort of subunits is each made. There are likewise two main techniques by

Identification and characterisation of Zucchini yellow fleck virus and a novel Nepovirus from next‐generation sequencing of mixed virus infections in cucumbers (Cucumis sativus) from Crete

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
High‐throughput sequencing from cucumber leaf samples collected in Crete, Greece, revealed mixed infections including a cucumber‐infecting isolate of Zucchini yellow fleck virus and a novel nepovirus, provisionally named cucumber nepovirus A (CuNVA).

A maize non- infectious clone from Sugarcane mosaic virus can move in detached tobacco leaves

Botan‪ical Sciences
Background: Infectious clones are copies of a virus genome produced in vitro or inside a vector and can infect inoculated healthy plants or cells. They are important tools to study the molecular biology of viruses.

Molecular Mechanics Simulations and Improved Tight-binding Hamiltonians for Artificial Light Harvesting Systems: Predicting Geometric Distributions, Disorder, and Spectroscopy of Chromophores in a Protein Environment [PDF]

, 2018
We present molecular mechanics {and spectroscopic} calculations on prototype artificial light harvesting systems consisting of chromophores attached to a tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) protein scaffold. These systems have been synthesized and characterized spectroscopically, but information about the microscopic configurations and geometry of these TMV ...
