Epitranscriptomic regulation of viral replication

open access: yesBiochimica 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 ...

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Architecture of viral replication factories

open access: yesOncotarget, 2015
Compartmentalization of intracellular membrane is a marked characteristic during the pathogenesis of many viruses, which provides a microenvironment for virus to evade the host RNA interference defense response on one hand, and confines various host factors as well as metabolites in a stable space so that they can act in concert to complete virus ...

Viral Macrodomains: Unique Mediators of Viral Replication and Pathogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Microbiology, 2018
Viruses from the Coronaviridae, Togaviridae, and Hepeviridae families ​all contain genes that encode a conserved protein domain, called a macrodomain; however, the role of this domain during infection has remained enigmatic. The recent discovery that mammalian macrodomain proteins enzymatically remove ADP-ribose, a common post-translation modification,

Noise cancellation: viral fine tuning of the cellular environment for its own genome replication. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2010
Productive replication of DNA viruses elicits host cell DNA damage responses, which cause both beneficial and detrimental effects on viral replication.

Rab14 regulates the transport of human papillomavirus to the trans‐Golgi network for infectious cell entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

Crystal structure of the catalytic domain of HIV-1 restriction factor APOBEC3G in complex with ssDNA

open access: yesNature 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 ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

HIV-1 RNA genome packaging: it’s G-rated

open access: yesmBio
A member of the Retroviridae, human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), uses the RNA genome packaged into nascent virions to transfer genetic information to its progeny.

Mutations in the C-terminus of HBoV NS1 affect the function of NP1

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Human bocavirus 1 (HBoV1) is an autonomous parvovirus in the Bocaparvovirus genus. The multifunctional nuclear protein NP1 is involved in viral replication.
