The Antiviral Activity of Polyphenols
Polyphenols demonstrate remarkable antiviral properties by effectively disrupting multiple biochemical processes essential for viral replication. ABSTRACT Polyphenols are secondary metabolites produced by a large variety of plants. These compounds that comprise the class of phenolic acids, stilbenes, lignans, coumarins, flavonoids, and tannins have a ...

Defined mutations in the 5' nontranslated sequence of Sindbis virus RNA [PDF]
We have constructed 24 deletion mutants which contain deletions of from 1 to 15 nucleotides in the 5' nontranslated region of Sindbis virus RNA and tested the effect of these mutations on virus replication.

The serine capsid protease (CP) catalyzes a crucial process of the alphaviral replication cycle; therefore, it constitutes an interesting therapy target. Herein, the O'nyong‐nyong virus CP profile activity with a specific fluorogenic substrate is analyzed and examines the inhibitory activity of a new series of phosphonic analogs of tryptophan and ...

ABSTRACT Globally, mosquito‐borne diseases (MBD) cause the highest morbidity and mortality in humans and animals. Currently, in Canada, endemic MBDs that are significant public health problems are all zoonoses and are caused primarily by West Nile virus, Eastern equine encephalitis virus, and Californian serogroup viruses, including the Jamestown ...

Derivatives of MOPS: promising scaffolds for SARS coronaviruses Macro domain‐targeted inhibition
The SARS‐CoV/CoV‐2 genome encodes non‐structural protein 3, which contains a ‘Macro domain’. This protein domain exhibits antagonistic activity against interferon signaling, which disrupts the host innate immune response and can thus mediate viral escape, highlighting its therapeutic potential.

Silver Nanoparticle‐Mediated Antiviral Efficacy against Enveloped Viruses: A Comprehensive Review
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) exhibit broad‐spectrum antiviral activity by targeting key viral structures and processes. They disrupt viral envelopes, compromising integrity, and bind to nucleocapsids, impairing viral replication. AgNPs also inhibit glycoprotein interactions, preventing viral attachment and entry into host cells.

Use of a lambda gt11 expression library to localize a neutralizing antibody-binding site in glycoprotein E2 of Sindbis virus [PDF]
The Sindbis virus envelope contains two species of integral membrane glycoproteins, E1 and E2. These proteins form heterodimers, and three dimeric units assemble to form spikes incorporated into the viral surface which play an important role in the ...

ABSTRACT Alphaviruses are re‐emerging vector‐born pathogens that cause arthralgia or encephalitic diseases on a global scale. While a vaccine against chikungunya virus was recently approved, no vaccines currently exist for other alphaviruses, nor are there antiviral drugs for the treatment of alphavirus infections. Alphaviruses have positive‐strand RNA
