Defective Virions of Reovirus [PDF]
When purified preparations of stock reovirus, type 3, were digested with chymotrypsin, the virions were converted into two different types of particle. These new particles could be separated from each other by isopycnic centrifugation in cesium chloride gradients. One particle banded at a buoyant density of 1.43 g/cm 3

AcrIIA8 is a putative phage structural protein of the HTJ2 family that does not inhibit Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9. [PDF]
Abstract Anti‐CRISPR (Acr) proteins are phage‐encoded anti‐defense factors that suppress CRISPR‐Cas immunity in bacteria. AcrIIA8 was previously identified as an inhibitor of Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 (SpyCas9) through functional assays of metagenomic libraries. Here, we report that AcrIIA8 does not inhibit SpyCas9 in biochemical assays under a range

Purification and Proteomics of Influenza Virions [PDF]
This chapter describes a basic workflow for analyzing the protein composition of influenza virions. In order to obtain suitable material, the chapter describes how to concentrate influenza virions from the growth media of infected cells and to purify them by ultracentrifugation through a density gradient.

Vaccinia Virus A6 Is Essential for Virion Membrane Biogenesis and Localization of Virion Membrane Proteins to Sites of Virion Assembly [PDF]
ABSTRACT Poxvirus acquires its primary envelope through a process that is distinct from those of other enveloped viruses. The molecular mechanism of this process is poorly understood, but several poxvirus proteins essential for the process have been identified in studies of vaccinia virus (VACV), the prototypical poxvirus ...

Endonucleases and simian virus 40 virions: origin of a virion-associated endonuclease [PDF]
The origin and role of the endonuclease activity associated with purified virions of simian virus 40, previously described by this and other laboratories, have been further investigated. We found that the enzymatic activity from virions of temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants is not more heat labile than that from wild-type virions.

Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

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.
