A saposin-lipoprotein nanoparticle system for membrane proteins. [PDF]
A limiting factor in membrane protein research is the ability to solubilize and stabilize such proteins. Detergents are used most often for solubilizing membrane proteins, but they are associated with protein instability and poor compatibility with ...

Virus-Like Particle, Liposome, and Polymeric Particle-Based Vaccines against HIV-1
It is acknowledged that vaccines remain the best hope for eliminating the HIV-1 epidemic. However, the failure to produce effective vaccine immunogens and the inability of conventional delivery strategies to elicit the desired immune responses remains a ...

Norwalk virus-like particles as vaccines [PDF]
Noroviruses (NoV) cause the great majority of epidemic nonbacterial gastroenteritis in humans. Expression of the capsid protein in recombinant systems, including insect and plant cells, yields assembly of virus-like particles (VLPs) that mimic the antigenic structure of authentic virions, and are relatively acid- and heat-stable.

A tail-like assembly at the portal vertex in intact herpes simplex type-1 virions [PDF]
Herpes viruses are prevalent and well characterized human pathogens. Despite extensive study, much remains to be learned about the structure of the genome packaging and release machinery in the capsids of these large and complex double-stranded DNA ...

Virus-like particle vaccine protects against 2009 H1N1 pandemic influenza virus in mice. [PDF]
The 2009 influenza pandemic and shortages in vaccine supplies worldwide underscore the need for new approaches to develop more effective vaccines.We generated influenza virus-like particles (VLPs) containing proteins derived from the A/California/04/2009

Escherichia coli-derived virus-like particles in vaccine development
Recombinant virus-like particle-based vaccines are composed of viral structural proteins and mimic authentic native viruses but are devoid of viral genetic materials. They are the active components in highly safe and effective vaccines for the prevention

Influenza virus morphogenesis and budding. [PDF]
Influenza viruses are enveloped, negative stranded, segmented RNA viruses belonging to Orthomyxoviridae family. Each virion consists of three major sub-viral components, namely (i) a viral envelope decorated with three transmembrane proteins ...

N-terminally myristoylated feline foamy virus Gag allows Env-independent budding of sub-viral particles [PDF]
Foamy viruses (FVs) are distinct retroviruses classified as Spumaretrovirinae in contrast to the other retroviruses, the Orthoretrovirinae. As a unique feature of FVs, Gag is not sufficient for sub-viral particle (SVP) release. In primate and feline FVs (

Bionanomaterials from plant viruses [PDF]
Plant virus capsids have emerged as useful biotemplates for material synthesis. All plant virus capsids are assembled with high-precision, three-dimensional structures providing nanoscale architectures that are highly monodisperse, can be produced in ...
