Interaction of polyomavirus internal protein VP2 with the major capsid protein VP1 and implications for participation of VP2 in viral entry [PDF]

open access: yesEMBO Journal, 1998
A complex of the polyomavirus internal protein VP2/VP3 with the pentameric major capsid protein VP1 has been prepared by co-expression in Escherichia coli. A C-terminal segment of VP2/VP3 is required for tight association, and a crystal structure of this segment, complexed with a VP1 pentamer, has been determined at 2.2 A resolution.

Application of Bluetongue Disabled Infectious Single Animal (DISA) vaccine for different serotypes by VP2 exchange or incorporation of chimeric VP2

open access: yesVaccine, 2015
Bluetongue is a disease of ruminants caused by the bluetongue virus (BTV). Bluetongue outbreaks can be controlled by vaccination, however, currently available vaccines have several drawbacks. Further, there are at least 26 BTV serotypes, with low cross protection.

Calicivirus VP2 forms a portal-like assembly following receptor engagement [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2019
To initiate infection, many viruses enter their host cells by triggering endocytosis following receptor engagement. However, the mechanisms by which non-enveloped viruses escape the endosome are poorly understood. Here we present near-atomic-resolution cryo-electron microscopy structures for feline calicivirus both undecorated and labelled with a ...

Characterization of Rotavirus VP2 Particles

Virology, 1994
Rotavirus particles consist of three concentric proteinaceous capsid layers. The innermost capsid (core) is made of VP2. The genomic RNA and the two minor proteins VP1 and VP3 are encapsidated within this layer. Empty rVP2 particles are produced when insect cells are infected with a recombinant baculovirus which contains the bovine Rf rotavirus gene 2 (

VP2 is the major exposed protein on orbiviruses

Archives of Virology, 1991
Iodination of African horsesickness virus and epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus resulted in labeling of VP2 and not of the other capsid protein, VP5, suggesting that VP2 is the major surface exposed protein of these orbiviruses.

Parvovirus B19 VP2‐Proteins Produced in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: Comparison with VP2‐Particles Produced by Baculovirus‐Derived Vectors

Journal of Veterinary Medicine, Series B, 2005
SummaryThe capsids of human parvovirus B19 consist of two structural proteins, the minor‐capsid protein VP1 and the major‐capsid protein VP2. The latter which constitutes for 95% of the capsid are able to form virus‐like particles (VLPs) in yeast without the presence of VP1‐proteins.

Phylogenetic Analysis of Canine Parvovirus VP2 Gene in China

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, 2014
In this study, a total of 37 samples (58.0%) were found through PCR assay to be positive for canine parvovirus (CPV) of 66 suspected faecal samples of dogs collected from various cities throughout China. Eight CPV isolates could be obtained in the CRFK cell line.
