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.

Noise cancellation: viral fine tuning of the cellular environment for its own genome replication. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2010 Productive replication of DNA viruses elicits host cell DNA damage responses, which cause both beneficial and detrimental effects on viral replication.

Stress Granules in the Viral Replication Cycle [PDF]
Viruses, 2011 As intracellular parasites, viruses require a host cell in order to replicate. However, they face a series of cellular responses against infection. One of these responses is the activation of the double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-activated protein kinase R (PKR). PKR phosphorylates the α subunit of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 (eIF2α), which in

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 Turnip yellow mosaic virus (TYMV) is a positive-strand RNA virus infecting plants. The TYMV 140K replication protein is a key organizer of viral replication complex (VRC) assembly, being responsible for recruitment of the viral polymerase and for ...

UGGT1 enhances enterovirus 71 pathogenicity by promoting viral RNA synthesis and viral replication. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2017 Positive-strand RNA virus infections can induce the stress-related unfolded protein response (UPR) in host cells. This study found that enterovirus A71 (EVA71) utilizes host UDP-glucose glycoprotein glucosyltransferase 1 (UGGT1), a key endoplasmic ...

Replication of Epstein-Barr Viral DNA [PDF]
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2013 Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a paradigm for human tumor viruses: it is the first virus recognized to cause cancer in people; it causes both lymphomas and carcinomas; yet these tumors arise infrequently given that most people in the world are infected with the virus. EBV is maintained extrachromosomally in infected normal and tumor cells.

Crystal structure of the catalytic domain of HIV-1 restriction factor APOBEC3G in complex with ssDNA
Nature Communications, 2018 APOBEC3G (A3G) is a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) cytidine deaminase that restricts HIV-1. Here the authors provide molecular insights into A3G substrate recognition by determining the 1.86 Å resolution crystal structure of its catalytic domain bound to ...

Epitranscriptomic regulation of viral replication
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Gene Regulatory Mechanisms, 2017 RNA plays central roles in biology and novel functions and regulation mechanisms are constantly emerging. To accomplish some of their functions within the cell, RNA molecules undergo hundreds of chemical modifications from which N6-methyladenosine (m6A), inosine (I), pseudouridine (ψ) and 5-methylcytosine (5mC) have been described in eukaryotic mRNA ...
