Characterization of chikungunya virus-like particles. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is becoming a global concern due to the increasing number of outbreaks throughout the world and the absence of any CHIKV-specific vaccine or treatment.

Immunogenicity of Virus-like Particles Based on VP1 Protein of Bovine Norovirus [PDF]

Veterinary Sciences
Bovine Norovirus (BNoV) is a member of the enterovirus family that can cause gastroenteritis in calves. This virus poses a significant risk to calf growth and development as well as to the long-term sustainability of the cattle industry in China and ...

Octahedral small virus-like particles of dengue virus type 2 [PDF]

Journal of Virology
Flavivirus envelope (E) and precursor M (prM) proteins, when ectopically expressed, assemble into empty, virus-like particles (VLPs). Cleavage of prM to M and loss of the pr fragment converts the VLPs from immature to mature particles, mimicking a ...

RNA Control of HIV-1 Particle Size Polydispersity [PDF]

, 2014
HIV-1, an enveloped RNA virus, produces viral particles that are known to be much more heterogeneous in size than is typical of non-enveloped viruses. We present here a novel strategy to study HIV-1 Viral Like Particles (VLP) assembly by measuring the ...

Self diffusion of particles in complex fluids: temporary cages and permanent barriers [PDF]

, 2008
We study the self diffusion of individual particles in dense (non-)uniform complex fluids within dynamic density functional theory and explicitly account for their coupling to the temporally fluctuating background particles. Applying the formalism to rod-

Virus-like Particles: Measures and Biological Functions

Viruses, 2022
Virus-like particles resemble infectious virus particles in size, shape, and molecular composition; however, they fail to productively infect host cells.

Size-selective downstream processing of virus particles and non-enveloped virus-like particles

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Non-enveloped virus-like particles (VLPs) are versatile protein nanoparticles with great potential for biopharmaceutical applications. However, conventional protein downstream processing (DSP) and platform processes are often not easily applicable due to

Zika virus like particles elicit protective antibodies in mice. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018
Mosquito-borne Zika virus (ZIKV) typically causes a mild and self-limiting illness known as Zika fever. Since its recent emergence in 2014 in the American continent, ZIKV infection during pregnancy has been closely associated with a wide range of ...

Quantifying Lipid Contents in Enveloped Virus Particles with Plasmonic Nanoparticles [PDF]

, 2014
Phosphatidylserine (PS) and monosialotetrahexosylganglioside (GM1) are examples of two host-derived lipids in the membrane of enveloped virus particles that are known to contribute to virus attachment, uptake, and ultimately dissemination. A quantitative
