Viperin Poisons Viral Replication [PDF]
Cell Host & Microbe, 2018 Control of virus infection relies on the stimulation of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) that inhibit viral replication. In a recent Nature paper, Gizzi et al. (2018) discovered that the ISG viperin inhibits virus replication by generating the ribonucleotide ddhCTP, which interferes with RNA synthesis, thus offering insights into drug design.

Impact of Nuclear Export Pathway on Cytoplasmic HIV-1 RNA Transport Mechanism and Distribution
mBio, 2020 HIV-1 full-length RNA (referred to as HIV-1 RNA here) serves as the viral genome in virions and as a template for Gag/Gag-Pol translation. We previously showed that HIV-1 RNA, which is exported via the CRM1 pathway, travels in the cytoplasm mainly ...

Enhanced Viral Replication by Cellular Replicative Senescence [PDF]
Immune Network, 2016 Cellular replicative senescence is a major contributing factor to aging and to the development and progression of aging-associated diseases. In this study, we sought to determine viral replication efficiency of influenza virus (IFV) and Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) infection in senescent cells.

Analysis of the Replication Mechanisms of the Human Papillomavirus Genomes
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 The life-cycle of human papillomaviruses (HPVs) includes three distinct phases of the viral genome replication. First, the viral genome is amplified in the infected cells, and this amplification is often accompanied by the oligomerization of the viral ...

Development of Lentiviral Vectors for HIV-1 Gene Therapy with Vif-Resistant APOBEC3G
Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2019 Strategies to control HIV-1 replication without antiviral therapy are needed to achieve a functional cure. To exploit the innate antiviral function of restriction factor cytidine deaminase APOBEC3G (A3G), we developed self-activating lentiviral vectors ...
