Passaging of a Newcastle disease virus pigeon variant in chickens results in selection of viruses with mutations in the polymerase complex enhancing virus replication and virulence [PDF]
Some Newcastle disease virus (NDV) variants isolated from pigeons (pigeon paramyxovirus type 1; PPMV-1) do not show their full virulence potential for domestic chickens but may become virulent upon spread in these animals.

Studying viral populations with tools from quantum spin chains [PDF]
We study Eigen's model of quasi-species, characterized by sequences that replicate with a specified fitness and mutate independently at single sites. The evolution of the population vector in time is then closely related to that of quantum spins in imaginary time.

During retrovirus assembly, Gag packages unspliced viral RNA as the virion genome. Genome packaging is usually specific with occasional exceptions of cross-packaging RNA from distantly related retroviruses.

Myxoma virus protein M029 is a dual function immunomodulator that inhibits PKR and also conscripts RHA/DHX9 to promote expanded host tropism and viral replication. [PDF]
Myxoma virus (MYXV)-encoded protein M029 is a member of the poxvirus E3 family of dsRNA-binding proteins that antagonize the cellular interferon signaling pathways.

Phosphorylated STAT5 directly facilitates parvovirus B19 DNA replication in human erythroid progenitors through interaction with the MCM complex. [PDF]
Productive infection of human parvovirus B19 (B19V) exhibits high tropism for burst forming unit erythroid (BFU-E) and colony forming unit erythroid (CFU-E) progenitor cells in human bone marrow and fetal liver.

Low-Level HIV-I Replication and the Dynamics of the Resting CD4(+) T Cell Reservoir for HIV-I in the Setting of HAART [PDF]
In the setting of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), plasma levels of human immunodeficiency type-I (HIV-I) rapidly decay to below the limit of detection of standard clinical assays.

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

Dengue virus (DENV) utilizes the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) for replication and assembling. Accumulation of unfolded proteins in the ER lumen leads to ER stress and unfolded protein response (UPR).
