Membrane Integration of Poliovirus 2B Viroporin [PDF]
ABSTRACT Virus infections can result in a variety of cellular injuries, and these often involve the permeabilization of host membranes by viral proteins of the viroporin family. Prototypical viroporin 2B is responsible for the alterations in host cell membrane permeability that take place in enterovirus-infected cells. 2B protein

Viroporin activity of murine hepatitis virus E protein [PDF]
The viroporin activity of the E protein from murine hepatitis virus (MHV), a member of the coronaviruses, was analyzed. Viroporins are a growing family of viral proteins able to enhance membrane permeability, promoting virus budding. Initially, the MHV E gene was inducibly expressed in Escherichia coli cells, leading to the arrest of bacterial growth ...

Viroporine sind kleine virale Ionenkanäle, die bei Virusinfektionen eine wesentliche Rolle spielen. Mittels oberflächenverstärkter Infrarotabsorptionsspektroskopie verfolgen und quantifizieren wir ausgedehnte Strukturveränderungen während der Öffnung des Influenza‐A‐Viroporins, des M2‐Protonenkanals, in einer Modellmembran.

In Support of Simian Polyomavirus 40 VP4 as a Later Expressed Viroporin
Simian virus 40 VP4 was discovered in 2007 as a later expressed viral protein initiated from a downstream Met on the VP2/VP3 transcript. VP4’s role as a viroporin involved in viral release was supported in a series of additional articles that ...

Background: SARS-CoV-2 has undergone mutations, yielding clinically relevant variants. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that in SARS-CoV-2, two highly conserved Orf3a and E channels directly related to the virus replication were a target for the detection and

Viroporins are small viral ion channels that play essential roles during viral infections. Using surface‐enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy we track and quantify the large‐scale structural changes during opening of the Influenza A viroporin, the M2 proton channel, in a model membrane.

Discovery and Characterization of the Phospholemman/SIMP/Viroporin Superfamily [PDF]
Using bioinformatic approaches, we present evidence of distant relatedness among the Ephemerovirus Viroporin family, the Rhabdoviridae Putative Viroporin U5 family, the Phospholemman family, and the Small Integral Membrane Protein family. Our approach is based on the transitivity property of homology complemented with five validation criteria: (1 ...

Picornaviruses are associated with acute and chronic diseases. The clinical manifestations of infections are often mild, but infections may also lead to respiratory symptoms, gastroenteritis, myocarditis, meningitis, hepatitis, and poliomyelitis, with ...
