Endocytosis in Viral Replication [PDF]
Although initially recognised as essential for the entry of certain viruses, endocytosis is now known to also play important roles in the replication of, and adaptation to, the host cell of a number of viruses. Here we consider several aspects of this association and recent results that have emerged to support this view.

Impact of Nuclear Export Pathway on Cytoplasmic HIV-1 RNA Transport Mechanism and Distribution
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 ...

Viperin Poisons Viral Replication [PDF]
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.

Enhanced Viral Replication by Cellular Replicative Senescence [PDF]
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.

Structural Insights into APOBEC3-Mediated Lentiviral Restriction
Mammals have developed clever adaptive and innate immune defense mechanisms to protect against invading bacterial and viral pathogens. Human innate immunity is continuously evolving to expand the repertoire of restriction factors and one such family of ...

Chinese Giant Salamander Iridovirus 025L Is a Viral Essential Gene
Ranavirus is a large nucleocytoplasmic DNA virus. Chinese giant salamander iridovirus (CGSIV) belongs to the ranavirus genus, and its replication involves a series of essential viral genes.

Analysis of the Replication Mechanisms of the Human Papillomavirus Genomes
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 ...
