Combined approaches to flexible fitting and assessment in virus capsids undergoing conformational change [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Fitting of atomic components into electron cryo-microscopy (cryoEM) density maps is routinely used to understand the structure and function of macromolecular machines.

Endosomal ions and serum promote enterovirus uncoating

open access: yes, 2020
Enterovirusten B ryhmään kuuluva Echovirus 1 on RNA-virus, jonka tiedetään infektoivan soluja ei-happamien endosomien välityksellä ja kerääntyvän neutraaleihin multivesikulaarisiin kappaleisiin.

Unraveling the motions behind Enterovirus 71 uncoating

open access: yes, 2018
Enterovirus 71 can be a severe pathogen in small children and immunocompromised adults. Virus uncoating is a critical step in the infection of the host cell; however, the mechanisms that control this process remain poorly understood.

Virus uncoating is required for apoptosis induction in cultured mammalian cells infected with African horse sickness virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Infection of cultured mammalian cells with African horse sickness virus (AHSV) is known to induce cell death. To date, the trigger(s) of this response, the apoptotic pathways activated during AHSV infection and the functional consequences of apoptosis ...

Replication of Alphaviruses: A Review on the Entry Process of Alphaviruses into Cells

open access: yesAdvances in Virology, 2011
Alphaviruses are small, enveloped viruses, ~70 nm in diameter, containing a single-stranded, positive-sense, RNA genome. Viruses belonging to this genus are predominantly arthropod-borne viruses, known to cause disease in humans.

A sensor-adaptor mechanism for enterovirus uncoating from structures of EV71

open access: yes, 2012
Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is a major agent of hand, foot and mouth disease in children that can cause severe central nervous system disease and death. No vaccine or antiviral therapy is available.

The effect of capsid mutations on HIV-1 uncoating

open access: yes, 2007
Efficient uncoating requires not only an optimal cellular environment, but also some intrinsic properties of the viral capsid protein itself. Using an in vitro uncoating model, we demonstrated that substitution of each serine residue with alanine at the ...

Probing recombinant AAV capsid integrity and genome release after thermal stress by mass photometry

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development
Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) are gaining traction as delivery vehicles for gene therapy although the molecular understanding of AAV-transgene release is still limited.

Studying Factors that Contribute to Uncoating of Enteroviruses

open access: yes, 2020
Enteroviruses are small, non-enveloped viruses with a positive sense single stranded RNA genome. They cause different diseases in humans, usually with symptoms of common cold, but also more severe acute and chronic infections such as encephalitis and ...

Modulation of foot-and-mouth disease virus pH threshold for uncoating correlates with differential sensitivity to inhibition of cellular Rab GTPases and decreases infectivity in vivo

open access: yes, 2015
The role of cellular Rab GTPases that govern traffic between different endosome populations was analysed on foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) infection. Changes of viral receptor specificity did not alter Rab5 requirement for infection.
