Identification of Epstein-Barr virus replication proteins in Burkitt’s lymphoma cells [PDF]
The working model to describe the mechanisms used to replicate the cancer-associated virus Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is partly derived from comparisons with other members of the Herpes virus family.

Complexities associated with expression of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) lytic origins of DNA replication. [PDF]
EBV has two lytic origins (oriLyt) of DNA replication lying at divergent sites on the viral genome within a duplicated sequence (DS). The latter contains potential hairpin loops, ‘hinge’ elements and the promoters for transcripts from viral genes BHLF1 ...

Keratinocyte differentiation-dependent human papillomavirus gene regulation [PDF]
Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) cause diseases ranging from benign warts to invasive cancers. HPVs infect epithelial cells and their replication cycle is tightly linked with the differentiation process of the infected keratinocyte.

IFN-gamma-mediated suppression of coronavirus replication in glial-committed progenitor cells. [PDF]
The neurotropic JHM strain of mouse hepatitis virus (JHMV) replicates primarily within glial cells following intracranial inoculation of susceptible mice, with relative sparing of neurons.

Slowly replicating lytic viruses: pseudolysogenic persistence and within-host competition [PDF]
We study the population dynamics of lytic viruses which replicate slowly in dividing host cells within an organism or cell culture, and find a range of viral replication rates that allows viruses to persist, avoiding extinction of host cells or dilution of viruses at too rapid or too slow viral replication.

As ultimate parasites, viruses depend on host factors for every step of their life cycle. On the other hand, cells evolved multiple mechanisms of detecting and interfering with viral replication.

Counteraction of HCV-induced oxidative stress concurs to establish chronic infection in liver cell cultures [PDF]
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a blood-borne pathogen causing acute and chronic hepatitis. A significant number of people chronically infected with HCV develop cirrhosis and/or liver cancer.

Visualization of DNA G-quadruplexes in herpes simplex virus 1-infected cells [PDF]
We have previously shown that clusters of guanine quadruplex (G4) structures can form in the human herpes simplex-1 (HSV-1) genome. Here we used immunofluorescence and immune-electron microscopy with a G4-specific monoclonal antibody to visualize G4 ...

Classification of capped tubular viral particles in the family of Papovaviridae [PDF]
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.
