A saposin-lipoprotein nanoparticle system for membrane proteins. [PDF]

, 2016
A limiting factor in membrane protein research is the ability to solubilize and stabilize such proteins. Detergents are used most often for solubilizing membrane proteins, but they are associated with protein instability and poor compatibility with ...

Morphology and ultrastructure of retrovirus particles

AIMS Biophysics, 2015
Retrovirus morphogenesis entails assembly of Gag proteins and the viral genome on the host plasma membrane, acquisition of the viral membrane and envelope proteins through budding, and formation of the core through the maturation process.

Expression of Envelope Protein (E2) of Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus in Insect Cells.

Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 1997
The gene encoding the envelope glycoprotein (E2) of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) was expressed in a baculovirus. The expressed protein was detected on the surface of infected cells by immunofluorescence. Western blotting analysis showed the presence of the expressed protein of a similar molecular size to the E2 protein.

Heterogeneous Condensation on Simplified Viral Envelope Protein Structures

ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces
Elucidating the mechanisms of heterogeneous condensation on viral and bacterial envelopes is crucial for understanding biothreat transport phenomena and optimizing capture efficiency in condensation-based detection devices. We investigate the impact of viral envelope geometric parameters [e.g., surface structure pitch-to-diameter ratio (p/d)] due to ...

Development and applications of VSV vectors based on cell tropism

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Viral vectors have been available in various fields such as medical and biological research or gene therapy applications. Targeting vectors pseudotyped with distinct viral envelope proteins that influence cell tropism and transfection efficiency is a ...

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

Journal 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 ...

Herpes Simplex Virus Cell Entry Mechanisms: An Update

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) can infect a broad host range and cause mild to life threating infections in humans. The surface glycoproteins of HSV are evolutionarily conserved and show an extraordinary ability to bind more than one receptor on the host ...

ZIKV infection activates the IRE1-XBP1 and ATF6 pathways of unfolded protein response in neural cells. [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: Many viruses depend on the extensive membranous network of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) for their translation, replication, and packaging. Certain membrane modifications of the ER can be a trigger for ER stress, as well as the accumulation ...

Recognition of viral glycoproteins by influenza A-specific cross- reactive cytolytic T lymphocytes [PDF]

, 1980
Two populations of cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL) generated after influenza A virus infection can be distinguished into one with specificity for the sensitizing hemagglutinin type and a second with cross-reactivity for antigens induced by other type-A ...

Can viral envelope proteins act as or induce proton channels?

Bioscience Reports, 1987
The mechanism of the process leading to cell-cell fusion induced by enveloped viruses at a mildly acidic pH is as yet unknown. In this report we demonstrate that the fusion events induced by three viruses of different families, namely Semliki Forest (togavirus), vesicular stomatitis (rhabdovirus) and influenza (orthomyxovirus), share common features ...
