Bluetongue Virus Entry into Cells [PDF]
ABSTRACT Bluetongue virus (BTV) is a member of the Orbivirus genus within the Reoviridae family. Like those of other members of the family, BTV particles are nonenveloped and contain two distinct capsids, namely, an outer capsid and an inner capsid or core. The two outer

Viral entry and escape from antibody-mediated neutralization influence hepatitis C virus reinfection in liver transplantation [PDF]
End-stage liver disease caused by chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a leading cause for liver transplantation (LT). Due to viral evasion from host immune responses and the absence of preventive antiviral strategies, reinfection of the graft is

Acid dependent infection of Hela and Vero cells by BTV-10 occurs from within early-endosomes following virus uptake by clathrin-mediated endocytosis (Forzan et al., 2007: J Virol 81: 4819-4827).

Entry properties and entry inhibitors of a human H7N9 influenza virus. [PDF]
The recently identified human infections with a novel avian influenza H7N9 virus in China raise important questions regarding possible risk to humans. However, the entry properties and tropism of this H7N9 virus were poorly understood.

A capsid-encoded PPxY-motif facilitates adenovirus entry. [PDF]
Viruses use cellular machinery to enter and infect cells. In this study we address the cell entry mechanisms of nonenveloped adenoviruses (Ads). We show that protein VI, an internal capsid protein, is rapidly exposed after cell surface attachment and ...

Single virus tracking of Ebola virus entry through lipid rafts in living host cells
Ebola virus (EBOV) is one of the most pathogenic viruses in humans which can cause a lethal hemorrhagic fever. Understanding the cellular entry mechanisms of EBOV can promote the development of new therapeutic strategies to control virus replication and ...

HCMV spread and cell tropism are determined by distinct virus populations. [PDF]
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) can infect many different cell types in vivo. Two gH/gL complexes are used for entry into cells. gH/gL/pUL(128,130,131A) shows no selectivity for its host cell, whereas formation of a gH/gL/gO complex only restricts the ...

Arming vaccinia virus for pancreatic cancer oncolytic virotherapy [PDF]
PhDVaccinia virus is a 250-300nm enveloped DNA virus from the poxvirus family and is used as a vector for oncolytic viral gene therapy. No unique cell surface receptor has been identified for Vaccinia virus and the reasons for its tropism for cancer ...
