Evolutionary conflicts and adverse effects of antiviral factors
Human cells are equipped with a plethora of antiviral proteins protecting them against invading viral pathogens. In contrast to apoptotic or pyroptotic cell death, which serves as ultima ratio to combat viral infections, these cell-intrinsic restriction ...

Host Restriction of Lentiviruses and Viral Countermeasures: APOBEC3 and Vif [PDF]
It is becoming increasingly clear that organisms have developed a variety of mechanisms to fight against viral infection. The viruses have developed means of counteracting these defences in various ways. The APOBEC3 proteins are a mammalian-specific family of nucleic acid cytidine deaminases that block retroviral infection.

Neuronal itaconate restricts viral infection [PDF]
Zika virus infection of neurons triggers a cell death-independent pathway through the necroptotic kinases RIPK1 and RIPK3 that alters cellular metabolism to suppress viral replication.

Host-dependent restriction of mengovirus replication. II. Effect of host restriction on late viral RNA synthesis and viral maturation [PDF]
Restricted mengovirus replication in Mandin-Darby bovine kidney (MDBK) cells is characterized by a 400-fold reduction in infectious virus yield and a 40-fold increase in the production of noninfectious virus. Using conditions which insure that all MDBK cells are infected, virus-specific RNA and protein synthesis were measured in the restrictive host ...

ATRX promotes maintenance of herpes simplex virus heterochromatin during chromatin stress
The mechanisms by which mammalian cells recognize and epigenetically restrict viral DNA are not well defined. We used herpes simplex virus with bioorthogonally labeled genomes to detect host factors recruited to viral DNA shortly after its nuclear entry ...

Regulation of alphaherpesvirus infections by the ICP0 family of proteins [PDF]
Immediate-early protein ICP0 of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is important for the regulation of lytic and latent viral infection. Like the related proteins expressed by other alphaherpesviruses, ICP0 has a zinc-stabilized RING finger domain that ...

IgG2a restriction of murine antibodies elicited by viral infections. [PDF]
The isotypic distribution of IgG antibodies was determined in the serum of mice after infection with a panel of RNA and DNA viruses representative of 11 different genera. The antiviral response induced by all these viruses showed a striking preponderance of the IgG2a subclass whatever the strain of mice tested or the time elapsed after infection ...

Lack of class I H-2 antigens in cells transformed by radiation leukemia virus is associated with methylation and rearrangement of H-2 DNA [PDF]
Transformation of murine thymocytes by radiation leukemia virus is associated with reduced expression of the class I antigens encoded in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and increased methylation and altered restriction enzyme patterns of MHC ...

TRIM5α restricts poxviruses and is antagonized by CypA and the viral protein C6
AbstractHuman tripartite motif protein 5α (TRIM5α) is a well-characterized restriction factor for some RNA viruses, including HIV1–5; however, reports are limited for DNA viruses6,7. Here we demonstrate that TRIM5α also restricts orthopoxviruses and, via its SPRY domain, binds to the orthopoxvirus capsid protein L3 to diminish virus replication and ...
