Molecular Mechanism of Arenavirus Assembly and Budding
Arenaviruses have a bisegmented negative-strand RNA genome, which encodes four viral proteins: GP and NP by the S segment and L and Z by the L segment. These four viral proteins possess multiple functions in infection, replication and release of progeny ...

ANP32B is a nuclear target of henipavirus M proteins. [PDF]
Membrane envelopment and budding of negative strand RNA viruses (NSVs) is mainly driven by viral matrix proteins (M). In addition, several M proteins are also known to be involved in host cell manipulation.

Matrix protein Osteonectin (SPARC) reduces inflammation and mortality during viral myocarditis [PDF]
Rationale: Acute viral myocarditis (VM) is one of the leading causes of heart failure in young adults, lacking specific therapy. Osteonection (SPARC) is a non-structural matrix protein modulating cell-matrix interaction in the heart, and has been implicated in cardiac remodeling.

Understanding Viral Transmission Behavior via Protein Intrinsic Disorder Prediction: Coronaviruses [PDF]
Besides being a common threat to farm animals and poultry, coronavirus (CoV) was responsible for the human severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic in 2002-4. However, many aspects of CoV behavior, including modes of its transmission, are yet to

Nipah shell disorder, modes of infection, and virulence [PDF]
The Nipah Virus (NiV) was first isolated during a 1998–9 outbreak in Malaysia. The outbreak initially infected farm pigs and then moved to humans from pigs with a case-fatality rate (CFR) of about 40%.

The Ebola virus matrix protein clusters phosphatidylserine, a critical step in viral budding [PDF]
AbstractPhosphatidylserine (PS) has been shown to be a critical lipid factor in the assembly and spread of numerous lipid enveloped viruses. Here, we describe the ability of the Ebola virus (EBOV) matrix protein eVP40 to induce clustering of PS and promote viral budding in vitro, as well as the ability of an FDA approved drug, fendiline, to reduce PS ...
