A comprehensive overview on the crosstalk between microRNAs and viral pathogenesis and infection
Abstract Infections caused by viruses as the smallest infectious agents, pose a major threat to global public health. Viral infections utilize different host mechanisms to facilitate their own propagation and pathogenesis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), as small noncoding RNA molecules, play important regulatory roles in different diseases, including viral ...

The Encephalomyocarditis Virus [PDF]
The encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) is a small non-enveloped single-strand RNA virus, the causative agent of not only myocarditis and encephalitis, but also neurological diseases, reproductive disorders and diabetes in many mammalian species.

Transcription Kinetics in the Coronavirus Life Cycle
The steps involved in a Coronavirus infection are interconnected and exhibit complex kinetics, with some processes depending on each other, while others occur independently. Understanding the basic kinetics of major processes like translation, transcription, and virion assembly in the Coronavirus life cycle adds temporal resolution to the classical ...

Beyond Channel Activity: Protein-Protein Interactions Involving Viroporins [PDF]
Viroporins are short polypeptides encoded by viruses. These small membrane proteins assemble into oligomers that can permeabilize cellular lipid bilayers, disrupting the physiology of the host to the advantage of the virus. Consequently, efforts during the last few decades have been focused towards the discovery of viroporin channel inhibitors, but in ...

Plum pox virus: An overview of the potyvirus behind sharka, a harmful stone fruit disease
Plum pox virus is a member of the genus Potyvirus in the family Potyviridae. The significance of this virus is underscored by its large strain diversity, wide host range, broad geographical distribution and the great socio‐economic impact of sharka, the disease it causes. Abstract The study of Potyvirus plumpoxi (plum pox virus, PPV) has a long history,

Single-molecule conformational dynamics of viroporin ion channels regulated by lipid-protein interactions [PDF]
Classic swine fever is a highly contagious and often fatal viral disease that is caused by the classical swine fever virus (CSFV). Protein p7 of CFSV is a prototype of viroporin, a family of small, highly hydrophobic proteins postulated to modulate virus-

The Interplay Between Viral Infection and Cell Death: A Ping‐Pong Effect
Programmed cell death (PCD) is a well‐studied cellular mechanism that plays a critical role in immune responses, developmental processes, and the maintenance of tissue homeostasis. However, viruses have developed diverse strategies to bypass or manipulate the host apoptotic machinery to enhance their replication and survival.

Mouse polyomavirus infection induces lamin reorganisation
Here, we investigated the roles of lamins as important nuclear proteins in the replication cycle of the mouse polyomavirus. We detected accumulation of the major capsid protein VP1 under the nuclear lamina, defects in nuclear lamina staining and different lamin A/C phosphorylation patterns following viral infection.
