DeepHBV: a deep learning model to predict hepatitis B virus (HBV) integration sites
Background The hepatitis B virus (HBV) is one of the main causes of viral hepatitis and liver cancer. HBV integration is one of the key steps in the virus-promoted malignant transformation.

Recombinant Adeno-associated Virus Transduction and Integration
Recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) holds promise as a gene therapy vector for a multitude of genetic disorders such as hemophilia, cystic fibrosis, and the muscular dystrophies. Given the variety of applications and tissue types toward which these vectors may be targeted, an understanding of rAAV transduction is crucial for the effective ...

Towards an integrated molecular model of plant–virus interactions [PDF]
The application in recent years of network theory methods to the study of host-virus interactions is providing a new perspective to the way viruses manipulate the host to promote their own replication. An integrated molecular model of such pathosystems require three detailed maps describing, firstly, the interactions between viral elements, secondly ...

Integrative functional genomics decodes herpes simplex virus 1 [PDF]
AbstractThe predicted 80 open reading frames (ORFs) of herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) have been intensively studied for decades. Here, we unravel the complete viral transcriptome and translatome during lytic infection with base-pair resolution by computational integration of multi-omics data.

Directed DNA shuffling of retrovirus and retrotransposon integrase protein domains. [PDF]
Chimeric proteins are used to study protein domain functions and to recombine protein domains for novel or optimal functions. We used a library of chimeric integrase proteins to study DNA integration specificity.

Integrase residues that determine nucleotide preferences at sites of HIV-1 integration: implications for the mechanism of target DNA binding [PDF]
Retroviruses favor target-DNA (tDNA) distortion and particular bases at sites of integration, but the mechanism underlying HIV-1 selectivity is unknown. Crystal structures revealed a network of prototype foamy virus (PFV) integrase residues that distort ...

Viral Hybrid Vectors for Somatic Integration - Are They the Better Solution? [PDF]
The turbulent history of clinical trials in viral gene therapy has taught us important lessons about vector design and safety issues. Much effort was spent on analyzing genotoxicity after somatic integration of therapeutic DNA into the host genome. Based
