Poliovirus Mutants at Histidine 195 of VP2 Do Not Cleave VP0 into VP2 and VP4 [PDF]
ABSTRACT The final stage of poliovirus assembly is characterized by a cleavage of the capsid precursor protein VP0 into VP2 and VP4. This cleavage is thought to be autocatalytic and dependent on RNA encapsidation. Analysis of the poliovirus empty capsid structure has led to a mechanistic model for VP0 cleavage involving a conserved histidine ...

Detection of a new canine parvovirus mutant in Iran [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Canine Parvovirus (CPV) is one of the major causes of fatal gastroenteritis in young dogs. After emergence of CPV-2, two new variants were reported and named CPV-2a and CPV-2b. In 2001 the newest variant was reported and named CPV-2c.

Typing of Human Enterovirus by Partial Sequencing of VP2 [PDF]
ABSTRACT The sequencing of the VP1 hypervariable region of the human enterovirus (HEV) genome has become the reference test for typing field isolates. This study describes a new strategy for typing HEV at the serotype level that uses a reverse transcription-PCR assay targeting the central part of the VP2 capsid protein. Two pairs

Expression of recombinant 35 kDa fragment of VP2 protein of canine parvovirus using Escherichia coli expression system [PDF]
Background and Aim: Canine parvovirus (CPV) is one of the most common viral infections in dogs, causing acute hemorrhagic gastroenteritis and high mortality. Vaccination effectively prevents CPV infection.

Myristylated polyomavirus VP2: role in the life cycle of the virus [PDF]
The double-stranded genome of the small DNA tumor virus, polyomavirus, is enclosed in a capsid composed of a major protein, VP1, which associates as pentameric capsomeres into an icosahedral structure, and two minor proteins, VP2 and VP3, whose functions and positions within the structure are unknown.

Mutations in the VP2 gene of rotavirus associated with benzimidazole sensitivity
Rotavirus species A (RVA) is the etiological agent of acute gastroenteritis in young individuals of various animal species, including humans. Vaccination has helped to reduce the impact of these viruses on humans and some species of domestic mammals, but they do not confer complete immunity, so antirotavirus agents are another important control option.

As the phylogenetic organization of mammalian polyomaviruses is complex and currently incompletely resolved, we aimed at a deeper insight into their evolution by identifying polyomaviruses in host orders and families that have either rarely or not been ...
