The Revisited Genome of Bacillus subtilis Bacteriophage SPP1
Viruses, 2018 Bacillus subtilis bacteriophage SPP1 is a lytic siphovirus first described 50 years ago. Its complete DNA sequence was reported in 1997. Here we present an updated annotation of the 44,016 bp SPP1 genome and its correlation to different steps of the ...

Virus assembly, allostery and antivirals [PDF]
Trends in Microbiology, 2011 Assembly of virus capsids and surface proteins must be regulated to ensure that the resulting complex is an infectious virion. In this review, we examine assembly of virus capsids, focusing on hepatitis B virus and bacteriophage MS2, and formation of glycoproteins in the alphaviruses.

Human Cytomegalovirus Egress: Overcoming Barriers and Co-Opting Cellular Functions
Viruses, 2021 The assembly of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and other herpesviruses includes both nuclear and cytoplasmic phases. During the prolonged replication cycle of HCMV, the cell undergoes remarkable changes in cellular architecture that include marked ...

Viruses, 2017 In the tailed bacteriophages, DNA is packaged into spherical procapsids, leading to expansion into angular, thin-walled mature capsids. In many cases, this maturation is accompanied by cleavage of the major capsid protein (CP) and other capsid-associated

Influenza virus assembly and budding
Virology, 2011 Influenza A virus causes seasonal epidemics, sporadic pandemics and is a significant global health burden. Influenza virus is an enveloped virus that contains a segmented negative strand RNA genome. Assembly and budding of progeny influenza virions is a complex, multi-step process that occurs in lipid raft domains on the apical membrane of infected ...

Hepatitis C Virus: Assembly and Release of Virus Particles [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2010 Hepatitis C virus is a blood-borne virus that typically establishes a chronic infection in the liver, which often results in cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Progress in understanding the complete virus life cycle has been greatly enhanced by the recent availability of a tissue culture system that produces infectious virus progeny.

Role of Hepatitis C Virus Envelope Glycoprotein E1 in Virus Entry and Assembly
Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 Hepatitis C virus (HCV) glycoproteins E1 and E2 form a heterodimer to constitute viral envelope proteins, which play an essential role in virus entry. E1 does not directly interact with host receptors, and its functions in viral entry are exerted mostly ...

Bluetongue virus assembly and exit pathways. [PDF]
Adv Virus Res, 2020 Bluetongue virus (BTV) is an insect-vectored emerging pathogen of wild ruminants and livestock in many parts of the world. The virion particle is a complex structure of consecutive layers of protein surrounding a genome of 10 double-stranded (ds) RNA segments. BTV has been studied extensively as a model system for large, nonenveloped dsRNA viruses.

CryoEM of Viral Ribonucleoproteins and Nucleocapsids of Single-Stranded RNA Viruses
Viruses, 2023 Single-stranded RNA viruses (ssRNAv) are characterized by their biological diversity and great adaptability to different hosts; traits which make them a major threat to human health due to their potential to cause zoonotic outbreaks.
