Proteins of Vesicular Stomatitis Virus and of Phenotypically Mixed Vesicular Stomatitis Virus-Simian Virus 5 Virions [PDF]
The identity of the glycoprotein of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) as the spike protein has been confirmed by the removal of the spikes with a protease from Streptomyces griseus , leaving bullet-shaped particles bounded by a smooth membrane.

Evaluating Temperature Sensitivity of Vesicular Stomatitis Virus–Based Vaccines
Use of the vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV)–based Ebola virus vaccine during outbreaks and the potential use of a similar VSV-based Lassa virus vaccine has raised questions about the vaccines’ stability should the cold chain fail.

Measuring Genetic Robustness in Vesicular Stomatitis Virus
Genetic robustness is the ability of a genome to incorporate mutations with the result of no fitness changes. Thus, more robust viruses have an increased neutral mutation rate.

The nucleocapsid of vesicular stomatitis virus [PDF]
The nucleocapsid of vesicular stomatitis virus serves as the genomic template for transcription and replication. The viral genomic RNA is sequestered in the nucleocapsid in every step of the virus replication cycle. The structure of the nucleocapsid and the entire virion revealed how the viral genomic RNA is encapsidated and packaged in the virus.

Activation of Nrf2 signaling augments Vesicular Stomatitis Virus Oncolysis via Autophagy-Driven Suppression of Antiviral Immunity [PDF]
Oncolytic viruses (OVs) offer a promising therapeutic approach to treat multiple types of cancer. In this study, we show that the manipulation of the anti-oxidant network via transcription factor Nrf2 augments vesicular stomatitis virus Δ51 (VSVΔ51 ...
