Structure and Uncoating of Immature Adenovirus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 2009
Maturation via proteolytic processing is a common trait in the viral world and is often accompanied by large conformational changes and rearrangements in the capsid. The adenovirus protease has been shown to play a dual role in the viral infectious cycle: (a) in maturation, as viral assembly starts with precursors to several of the structural proteins ...

nanoDSF: In vitro Label-Free Method to Monitor Picornavirus Uncoating and Test Compounds Affecting Particle Stability

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Thermal shift assays measure the stability of macromolecules and macromolecular assemblies as a function of temperature. The Particle Stability Thermal Release Assay (PaSTRy) of picornaviruses is based on probes becoming strongly fluorescent upon binding

Structural characterization of Ebola virus uncoating [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Viruses initiate infection of host cells by entering through a variety of different pathways. Their entry is concluded by the release of the viral genome into the cytoplasm, where the cellular machinery gets repurposed for virus replication. Prerequisite

Localization and functions of native and eGFP-tagged capsid proteins in HIV-1 particles.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2022
In infectious HIV-1 particles, the capsid protein (CA) forms a cone-shaped shell called the capsid, which encases the viral ribonucleoprotein complex (vRNP).

Adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV2) uncoating is a stepwise process and is linked to structural reorganization of the nucleolus.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2022
Nucleoli are membrane-less structures located within the nucleus and are known to be involved in many cellular functions, including stress response and cell cycle regulation. Besides, many viruses can employ the nucleolus or nucleolar proteins to promote

Uncoating of Clathrin-Coated Vesicles by Uncoating ATPase from Developing Peas [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1993
A cytosolic ATPase (an enzyme that dissociates clathrin from clathrin-coated vesicles in the presence of ATP) was isolated from developing pea (Pisum sativum L.) cotyledons using chromatography on ATP-agarose. After chromatography on phenyl Sepharose, the fraction with uncoating activity was enriched in a doublet of 70-kD peptides.

A Sensitive Yellow Fever Virus Entry Reporter Identifies Valosin-Containing Protein (VCP/p97) as an Essential Host Factor for Flavivirus Uncoating

open access: yesProceedings, 2020
Flaviviruses are enveloped, arthropod-borne, positive-strand RNA viruses that cause significant human disease. While the basic mechanisms of flavivirus entry and fusion are understood, little is known about the postfusion events that precede RNA ...

Monitoring SARS-CoV-2 Surrogate TGEV Individual Virions Structure Survival under Harsh Physicochemical Environments

open access: yesCells, 2022
Effective airborne transmission of coronaviruses via liquid microdroplets requires a virion structure that must withstand harsh environmental conditions.

HIV-1 uncoating by release of viral cDNA from capsid-like structures in the nucleus of infected cells

open access: yeseLife, 2021
HIV-1 replication commences inside the cone-shaped viral capsid, but timing, localization, and mechanism of uncoating are under debate. We adapted a strategy to visualize individual reverse-transcribed HIV-1 cDNA molecules and their association with ...

Uncoating of influenza virus in endosomes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 1984
The intracellular uncoating site of influenza virus was studied by measuring the fluorescence intensity of probes conjugated to the virus or the isolated hemagglutinin and also by assaying virus replication under various incubation conditions. Acidification of the viral environment was monitored by the decrease in the fluorescence intensity of ...
