Human immunodeficiency virus type 1: Role of proteins in the context of viral life cycle
Journal of Advanced Biotechnology and Experimental Therapeutics, 2022 The Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) is a major global pandemic and of paramount public health concern. Over the years, antiretroviral therapy (ART) has emerged as the gold standard of AIDS treatment.

Upstream-binding factor is sequestered into herpes simplex virus type 1 replication compartments [PDF]
, 2009 Previous reports have shown that adenovirus recruits nucleolar protein upstream-binding factor (UBF) into adenovirus DNA replication centres. Here, we report that despite having a different mode of viral DNA replication, herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV ...

Classification of capped tubular viral particles in the family of Papovaviridae [PDF]
J.Phys.:Condens.Matter 18 (2006) S375-S387, 2005 A vital constituent of a virus is its protein shell, called the viral capsid, that encapsulates and hence provides protection for the viral genome. Viral capsids are usually spherical, and for a significant number of viruses exhibit overall icosahedral symmetry.

SARS-CoV-2 Entry Genes Are Most Highly Expressed in Nasal Goblet and Ciliated Cells within Human Airways [PDF]
Nature Medicine, 2020, 2020 The SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, the etiologic agent responsible for COVID-19 coronavirus disease, is a global threat. To better understand viral tropism, we assessed the RNA expression of the coronavirus receptor, ACE2, as well as the viral S protein priming protease TMPRSS2 thought to govern viral entry in single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) datasets ...

Proteomic and functional analyses of the virion transmembrane proteome of cyprinid herpesvirus 3 [PDF]
, 2017 Virion transmembrane proteins (VTPs) mediate key functions in the herpesvirus infectious cycle. Cyprinid herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3) is the archetype of fish alloherpesviruses. The present study was devoted to CyHV-3 VTPs.

Autophagy Proteins in Viral Exocytosis and Anti-Viral Immune Responses [PDF]
Viruses, 2017 Abstract: Autophagy-related (Atg) gene-encoded proteins were originally described for their crucial role in macroautophagy, a catabolic pathway for cytoplasmic constituent degradation in lysosomes. Recently it has become clear that modules of this machinery can also be used to influence endo- and exocytosis.

Unpicking the Secrets of African Swine Fever Viral Replication Sites
Viruses, 2021 African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a highly contagious pathogen which causes a lethal haemorrhagic fever in domestic pigs and wild boar. The large, double-stranded DNA virus replicates in perinuclear cytoplasmic replication sites known as viral ...

Expansion of Viral Genomes with Viral Protein Genome Linked Copies
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2022 Virus protein-linked genome (VPg) proteins are required for replication. VPgs are duplicated in a subset of RNA viruses however their roles are not fully understood and the extent of viral genomes containing VPg copies has not been investigated in detail.
