Calpains are Ca2+-regulated proteolytic enzymes that are involved in a variety of biological phenomena. Calpains process substrates by limited proteolysis to modulate various protein functions in the cell, and are thus called “modulator proteases.” CAPN3, previously called p94 or calpain-3, has unique features that are not found in any of the other 14 human calpains, or even in other proteases.For...
Transcription, replication, and segregation of human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are regulated by various host factors, but our understanding of host proteins that bind to the HPV genome is limited. Here we report the results of a search of cellular proteins that can associate with specific genomic regions of HPV type 16 (HPV16). We found that human nucleolin, an abundant nucleolar protein, was preferentially...
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) core protein is essential for virus particle formation. Using HCV core-expressing and non-expressing Huh7 cell lines, Uc39-6 and Uc321, respectively, we performed comparative proteomic studies of proteins in the 0.5% Triton X-100-insoluble fractions of cells, and found that core-expressing Uc39-6 cells had much lower vimentin content than Uc321 cells. In experiments using vimentin-overexpressing...
