Characterization of the DNA binding activity of structural protein VP1 from chicken anaemia virus
Background Chicken anaemia virus (CAV) is commonly found in poultry. VP1 is the sole structural protein of CAV, which is the major component responsible for capsid assembly. The CAV virion consists of the VP1 protein and a viral genome. However, there is

The Role of VP1 Amino Acid Residue 145 of Enterovirus 71 in Viral Fitness and Pathogenesis in a Cynomolgus Monkey Model. [PDF]
Enterovirus 71 (EV71), a major causative agent of hand, foot, and mouth disease, occasionally causes severe neurological symptoms. We identified P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) as an EV71 receptor and found that an amino acid residue 145 in the

Mechanism of Action of VP1-001 in cryAB(R120G)-Associated and Age-Related Cataracts
Purpose We previously identified an oxysterol, VP1-001 (also known as compound 29), that partially restores the transparency of lenses with cataracts. To understand the mechanism of VP1-001, we tested the ability of its enantiomer, ent-VP1-001, to bind ...

Identification of a conserved B-cell epitope on duck hepatitis A type 1 virus VP1 protein.
BackgroundThe VP1 protein of duck hepatitis A virus (DHAV) is a major structural protein that induces neutralizing antibodies in ducks; however, B-cell epitopes on the VP1 protein of duck hepatitis A genotype 1 virus (DHAV-1) have not been characterized ...

PRMT5 Facilitates Infectious Bursal Disease Virus Replication through Arginine Methylation of VP1
Post-translational modification of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) VP1 is important for the regulation of its polymerase activity. Investigation of the significance of specific modification of VP1 can lead to better understanding of viral ...

HSV1 VP1-2 deubiquitinates STING to block type I interferon expression and promote brain infection
Bodda et al. show that the deubiquitinase activity of the HSV1 VP1-2 protein inhibits induction of type I interferon in the brain. This is mediated through deubiquitination of the signaling protein STING, thus preventing activation of host defense after ...
