Defensive‐lipid droplets: Cellular organelles designed for antimicrobial immunity
Summary Microbes have developed many strategies to subvert host organisms, which, in turn, evolved several innate immune responses. As major lipid storage organelles of eukaryotes, lipid droplets (LDs) are an attractive source of nutrients for invaders.

Abstract To study viral infection, the direct structural visualization of the viral life cycle consisting of virus attachment, entry, replication, assembly and transport is essential. Although conventional electron microscopy (EM) has been extremely helpful in the investigation of virus–host cell interactions, three‐dimensional (3D) EM not only ...

A little less aggregation a little more replication: Viral manipulation of stress granules
Viruses depend entirely on host machinery and therefore aim to conquer the host and defeat its defenses to co‐opt its resources for its own replication. Improved understanding of how viruses counteract host immune responses such as stress granule assembly, detailed here, will inform future antiviral therapeutic strategies.

Fijiviral P9‐2 protein but not RNA was shown to induce cell death by targeting the plasma membrane in plant cells, suggesting that this protein could be responsible for a programmed cell death‐like process in infected tissues with hyperplasia. Abstract Southern rice black‐streaked dwarf virus (SRBSDV; Fijivirus, Reoviridae) has become a threat to ...

Background In China, the rice pathogen Rice yellow stunt virus (RYSV), a member of the genus Nucleorhabdovirus in the family Rhabdoviridae, was a severe threat to rice production during the1960s and1970s.

Fluorescence fluctuation‐based super‐resolution microscopy: Basic concepts for an easy start
Abstract Due to the wave nature of light, optical microscopy has a lower‐bound lateral resolution limit of approximately half of the wavelength of visible light, that is, within the range of 200 to 350 nm. Fluorescence fluctuation‐based super‐resolution microscopy (FF‐SRM) is a term used to encompass a collection of image analysis techniques that rely ...

Hijack it, change it: how do plant viruses utilize the host secretory pathway for efficient viral replication and spread? [PDF]
The secretory pathway of eukaryotic cells has an elaborated set of endomembrane compartments involved in the synthesis, modification, and sorting of proteins and lipids.

Poxviruses replicate in cytoplasmic structures called factories and each factory begins as a single infecting particle. Sixty-years ago Cairns predicted that this might have effects on vaccinia virus (VACV) recombination because the factories would have ...

Ultrastructural Characteristics and Viral Replication Sites in Chloroplasts of Kimchi Cabbage Cells infected with Turnip Yellow Mosaic Virus [PDF]
A significant number of vesicles developed at the inner edge of chloroplasts of kimchi cabbage cells infected with turnip yellow mosaic virus (TYMV). The vesicle found in the chloroplasts are typical ultrastructures resulting from infection of TYMV.
