The Fusion Activity of HIV-1 gp41 Depends on Interhelical Interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Infection by human immunodeficiency virus type I requires the fusogenic activity of gp41, the transmembrane subunit of the viral envelope protein. Crystallographic studies have revealed that fusion-active gp41 is a "trimer-of-hairpins" in which three ...

The full-length nsp2 replicase contributes to viral assembly in highly pathogenic PRRSV-2

open access: yesJournal of Virology
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome viruses (PRRSVs) are significant pathogens that affect the global swine industry. Its virions consist of a central core composed of nucleocapsid (N) protein, surrounded by multiple distinct viral envelope ...

Quantitative Microscopy Reveals Stepwise Alteration of Chromatin Structure during Herpesvirus Infection

open access: yesViruses, 2019
During lytic herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) infection, the expansion of the viral replication compartments leads to an enrichment of the host chromatin in the peripheral nucleoplasm.

Complex interplay of kinetic factors governs the synergistic properties of HIV-1 entry inhibitors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The homotrimeric HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env) undergoes receptor-triggered structural changes that mediate viral entry through membrane fusion. This process is inhibited by chemokine receptor antagonists (CoRAs) that block Env-receptor interactions ...

Genetic diversity of Brazilian isolates of feline immunodeficiency virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We isolated Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) from three adult domestic cats, originating from two open shelters in Brazil. Viruses were isolated from PBMC following co-cultivation with the feline T-lymphoblastoid cell line MYA-1.
