Structure and Neutralization of Viral Fusion Proteins

open access: yes, 2023
Emerging infectious diseases remain persistent threats that are challenging to predict. Humanity has faced many terrible pandemics and will face more, but to pinpoint the specific time and place of an outbreak, the type of pathogen, and the consequences is effectively impossible.

Multiple ETS family transcription factors bind mutant p53 via distinct interaction regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mutant p53 gain‐of‐function is thought to be mediated by interaction with other transcription factors. We identify multiple ETS transcription factors that can bind mutant p53 and found that this interaction can be promoted by a PXXPP motif. ETS proteins that strongly bound mutant p53 were upregulated in ovarian cancer compared to ETS proteins that ...

Hepatitis C Virus Assembly Imaging

open access: yesViruses, 2011
Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) assembly process is the least understood step in the virus life cycle. The functional data revealed by forward and reverse genetics indicated that both structural and non-structural proteins are involved in the assembly process ...

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

Control of Alphavirus Replication in Neurons

open access: yesProceedings, 2020
Sindbis virus causes age-dependent encephalomyelitis in mice. Young mice and immature neurons replicate the virus to high titers and die from infection while older mice and mature neurons restrict replication and survive infection.

Structural basis for the recognition of SARS-CoV-2 by full-length human ACE2

open access: yesScience, 2020
How SARS-CoV-2 binds to human cells Scientists are racing to learn the secrets of severe acute respiratory syndrome–coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which is the cause of the pandemic disease COVID-19. The first step in viral entry is the binding of the viral

Structures of viral membrane proteins by high-resolution cryoEM [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Virology, 2014
Cryo electron microscopy (cryoEM) has emerged as an excellent tool for resolving high-resolution three-dimensional structures of membrane proteins in a lipid-containing environment with interacting partners. The near atomic resolution structures of Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus and dengue virus revealed transmembrane helices in lipid bilayers ...

In situ molecular organization and heterogeneity of the Legionella Dot/Icm T4SS

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present a nearly complete in situ model of the Legionella Dot/Icm type IV secretion system, revealing its central secretion channel and identifying new components. Using cryo‐electron tomography with AI‐based modeling, our work highlights the structure, variability, and mechanism of this complex nanomachine, advancing understanding of bacterial ...

Structural Virology: The Key Determinants in Development of Antiviral Therapeutics

open access: yesViruses
Structural virology has emerged as the foundation for the development of effective antiviral therapeutics. It is pivotal in providing crucial insights into the three-dimensional frame of viruses and viral proteins at atomic-level or near-atomic-level ...

LUJO HEMORRHAGIC FEVER

open access: yesВопросы вирусологии, 2017
Lujo hemorrhagic fever (LHF) is a viral disease accompanied with fever, headache, vomiting, diarrhea, arthralgia, myalgia and numerous signs of hemorrhagic syndrome. LHF causes a clinical syndrome remarkably similar to Lassa hemorrhagic fever.
