Rotavirus VP2 Core Shell Regions Critical for Viral Polymerase Activation [PDF]
ABSTRACT The innermost VP2 core shell of the triple-layered, icosahedral rotavirus particle surrounds the viral genome and RNA processing enzymes, including the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (VP1). In addition to anchoring VP1 within the core, VP2 is also an essential cofactor that triggers the polymerase to initiate double ...

The peptide motif of the single dominantly expressed class I molecule of the chicken MHC can explain the response to a molecular defined vaccine of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) [PDF]
In contrast to typical mammals, the chicken MHC (the BF-BL region of the B locus) has strong genetic associations with resistance and susceptibility to infectious pathogens as well as responses to vaccines.

Construction of cell line stably expressing IBDV VP 2 protein mutants
A couple of primers was designed on the base of VP2 gene sequence of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) HZ2 strain, and the VP2 gene was successfully cloned into eukaryotic expression vector pDsRed2-N1.

Pseudospin-Resolved Transport Spectroscopy of the Kondo Effect in a Double Quantum Dot
We report measurements of the Kondo effect in a double quantum dot (DQD), where the orbital states act as pseudospin states whose degeneracy contributes to Kondo screening.

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.

Rotavirus 993/83, isolated from calf faeces, closely resembles an avian rotavirus [PDF]
Polypeptides from purified virions of the calf rotavirus (RV) isolate 993/83 and those from the pigeon RV isolate PO-13 comigrated on SDS-polyacrylamide gels. Two polypeptides of 45K and 47K were detected at the position of VP6.

Viral proteins expressed in the protozoan parasite Eimeria tenella are detected by the chicken immune system [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Eimeria species are parasitic protozoa that cause coccidiosis, an intestinal disease commonly characterised by malabsorption, diarrhoea and haemorrhage that is particularly important in chickens.

Chicken infectious bursal disease (IBD) is still incompletely controlled worldwide. Although IBD virus (IBDV) VP2 DNA vaccine was considered a safe vaccine for IBD prevention, the immunogenicity by itself remains poor, resulting in the failure of ...
