Virus-like particles in the plant hopper Javesella pellucida Fab. [PDF]

, 1970
Javesella pellucida Fab. (Homoptera, Delphacidae) is one of two plant hoppers known to transmit the pathogen called European wheat striate mosaic virus (EWSMV) (Kisimoto & Watson, 1965) which has not yet been purified or identified visually (Serjeant ...

Norwalk virus-like particles as vaccines [PDF]

Expert Review of Vaccines, 2010
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.

Viruses of protozoan parasites and viral therapy: Is the time now right?

Virology Journal, 2020
Infections caused by protozoan parasites burden the world with huge costs in terms of human and animal health. Most parasitic diseases caused by protozoans are neglected, particularly those associated with poverty and tropical countries, but the paucity ...

Efficient production of foot-and-mouth disease virus empty capsids in insect cells following down regulation of 3C protease activity [PDF]

, 2013
Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is a significant economically and distributed globally pathogen of Artiodactyla. Current vaccines are chemically inactivated whole virus particles that require large-scale virus growth in strict bio-containment with ...

Cryotomography of budding influenza a virus reveals filaments with diverse morphologies that mostly do not bear a genome at their distal end [PDF]

, 2013
Influenza viruses exhibit striking variations in particle morphology between strains. Clinical isolates of influenza A virus have been shown to produce long filamentous particles while laboratory-adapted strains are predominantly spherical.

Thermal remodelling of Alternanthera mosaic virus virions and virus-like particles into protein spherical particles.

PLoS ONE, 2021
The present work addresses the thermal remodelling of flexible plant viruses with a helical structure and virus-like particles (VLPs). Here, for the first time, the possibility of filamentous Alternanthera mosaic virus (AltMV) virions' thermal transition
