Cryo-electron microscopy structure of yeast Ty retrotransposon virus-like particles [PDF]
, 1997 The virus−like particles (VLPs) produced by the yeast retrotransposon Ty1 are functionally related to retroviral cores. These particles are unusual in that they have variable radif.

The expression of hybrid HIV:Ty virus-like particles in yeast.
Nature, 1987 The yeast retrotransposon, Ty, encodes a set of proteins that are assembled into virus-like particles, Ty-VLPs (refs 1, 2). These proteins include Ty-VLP structural proteins, a protease that mediates cleavage of primary translation products and a reverse

Detection of DOPA-melanin in the dimorphic fungal pathogen Penicillium marneffei and its effect on macrophage phagocytosis in vitro. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The fungal pathogen Penicillium marneffei produces melanin-like pigment in vitro. The synthetic pathway of melanin and its possible influence in the protective yeast cells surviving within macrophage cells are not known. In this work, P.

Rescue of Infectious Sindbis Virus by Yeast Spheroplast-Mammalian Cell Fusion
Viruses, 2021 Sindbis virus (SINV), a positive-sense single stranded RNA virus that causes mild symptoms in humans, is transmitted by mosquito bites. SINV reverse genetics have many implications, not only in understanding alphavirus transmission, replication cycle ...

Alveolar macrophage response to yeasts and inert particles [PDF]
Medical Mycology, 1996 Interactions between alveolar macrophages (AM) from rats and a yeast with relatively high pathogenicity (Candida albicans), a yeast with low pathogenicity (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and an inert control particle (amorphous silica) of similar diameters, 3-4 microns, were studied.
