Specific Interaction between Human Parechovirus Nonstructural 2A Protein and Viral RNA [PDF]
The functional properties of the nonstructural 2A protein are variable among different picornaviruses. The 2A protein of the human parechovirus 1 (HPEV1) has been shown to lack the proteolytic activity found in many other picornaviruses, but no particular function has been identified for HPEV1 2A. To obtain information about the role of HPEV1 2A in the

Activation of PKR by Bunyamwera virus is independent of the viral interferon antagonist NSs [PDF]
Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is a by-product of viral RNA polymerase activity, and its recognition is one mechanism by which the innate immune system is activated.

Inhibition of cellular protein secretion by norwalk virus nonstructural protein p22 requires a mimic of an endoplasmic reticulum export signal. [PDF]
Protein trafficking between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatus is central to cellular homeostasis. ER export signals are utilized by a subset of proteins to rapidly exit the ER by direct uptake into COPII vesicles for transport to the ...

MARCH8 Ubiquitinates the Hepatitis C Virus Nonstructural 2 Protein and Mediates Viral Envelopment [PDF]
The mechanisms that regulate envelopment of HCV and other viruses that bud intracellularly and/or lack late-domain motifs are largely unknown. We reported that K63 polyubiquitination of the HCV nonstructural (NS) 2 protein mediates HRS (ESCRT-0 component) binding and envelopment.

Peptides targeting dengue viral nonstructural protein 1 inhibit dengue virus production [PDF]
AbstractViruses manipulate the life cycle in host cells via the use of viral properties and host machineries. Development of antiviral peptides against dengue virus (DENV) infection has previously been concentrated on blocking the actions of viral structural proteins and enzymes in virus entry and viral RNA processing in host cells.

Functional analysis of the Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus Gc glycoprotein [PDF]
The virion glycoproteins Gn and Gc of Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus (BUNV, family Bunyaviridae) are encoded by the M RNA genome segment and have roles in both viral attachment and membrane fusion.

Towards understanding of the replication and pathogenesis of dengue infection [PDF]
Dengue is the most important human viral disease transmitted by arthropod vectors and over half of the world's population live in areas at risk of infection. Currently there is neither specific treatment nor vaccine to tackle this emerging disease. The

The Viral Replication Complex Is Associated with the Virulence of Newcastle Disease Virus [PDF]
Virulent strains of Newcastle disease virus ([NDV] also known as avian paramyxovirus type 1) can be discriminated from low-virulence strains by the presence of multiple basic amino acid residues at the proteolytic cleavage site of the fusion (F) protein.

The transient nature of bunyamwera orthobunyavirus NSs protein expression : effects of increased stability of NSs protein on virus replication [PDF]
The NSs proteins of bunyaviruses are the viral interferon antagonists, counteracting the host's antiviral response to infection. During high-multiplicity infection of cultured mammalian cells with Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus (BUNV), NSs is rapidly ...
