Viruses and viral proteins [PDF]

open access: yesIUCrJ, 2014
For more than 30 years X-ray crystallography has been by far the most powerful approach for determining the structures of viruses and viral proteins at atomic resolution.

Viral Hijacking of BET Proteins

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Proteins of the bromodomain and exterminal domain (BET) family mediate critical host functions such as cell proliferation, transcriptional regulation, and the innate immune response, which makes them preferred targets for viruses.

Viral organization of human proteins. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Although maps of intracellular interactions are increasingly well characterized, little is known about large-scale maps of host-pathogen protein interactions. The investigation of host-pathogen interactions can reveal features of pathogenesis and provide

Current progress on innate immune evasion mediated by Npro protein of pestiviruses

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Interferon (IFN), the most effective antiviral cytokine, is involved in innate and adaptive immune responses and is essential to the host defense against virus invasion. Once the host was infected by pathogens, the pathogen-associated molecular patterns (

SUMOylation in Viral Replication and Antiviral Defense

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2022
SUMOylation is a ubiquitination‐like post‐translational modification that plays an essential role in the regulation of protein function. Recent studies have shown that proteins from both RNA and DNA virus families can be modified by SUMO conjugation ...

The Role of Disordered Regions in Orchestrating the Properties of Multidomain Proteins: The SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid Protein and Its Interaction with Enoxaparin

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Novel and efficient strategies need to be developed to interfere with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. One of the most promising pharmaceutical targets is the nucleocapsid protein (N), responsible for genomic RNA packaging.

Mimicry between respiratory virus proteins and some human immune proteins

open access: yesИнфекция и иммунитет, 2020
A comparative analysis on search for amino acid sequences in viral proteins causing respiratory infections (or respiratory infections syndrome) homologous to amino acid sequences from some human immune proteins was performed.

The Viral Protein Corona Directs Viral Pathogenesis and Amyloid Aggregation [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
AbstractArtificial nanoparticles accumulate a protein corona layer in biological fluids, which significantly influences their bioactivity. As nanosized obligate intracellular parasites, viruses share many biophysical properties with artificial nanoparticles in extracellular environments and here we show that respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and herpes

Specific Deubiquitinating Enzymes Promote Host Restriction Factors Against HIV/SIV Viruses

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Hijacking host ubiquitin pathways is essential for the replication of diverse viruses. However, the role of deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) in the interplay between viruses and the host is poorly characterized. Here, we demonstrate that specific DUBs are

De Novo synthesis of VP16 coordinates the exit from HSV latency in vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The mechanism controlling the exit from herpes simplex virus latency (HSV) is of central importance to recurrent disease and transmission of infection, yet interactions between host and viral functions that govern this process remain unclear. The cascade
