The assembly of the viral replicase complex (VRC) on subcellular membranes is a key step in the replication process of plus-stranded RNA viruses. In this work, we have identified lethal and temperature sensitive (ts) point mutations within the essential p33:p33/p92 interaction domain of p33 and p92 replication proteins of Cucumber necrosis virus, a tombusvirus. Mutations within the p33:p33/p92 interaction...
The emergence of resistance breaking (RB) variants starting from the avirulent Potato virus Y NN strain (PVY NN ) was analyzed after imposing different selective host constraints. Tobacco resistance to PVY NN is conferred by va in both NC745 and VAM genotypes, but VAM carries an extra resistance gene, va2. RB-variants emerged only in NC745 and unexpectedly accumulated higher in the...
Neutralization of flaviviruses requires engagement of the virion by antibodies with a stoichiometry that exceeds a required threshold. Factors that modulate the number of antibodies bound to an individual virion when it contacts target cells impact neutralization potency. However, the contribution of cellular factors to the potency of neutralizing antibodies has not been explored systematically. Here...
Periplaneta fuliginosa densovirus (PfDNV) is a single-stranded DNA virus, belonging to Densovirinae subfamily, Parvoviridae family. Parvovirus nonstructural protein 1 (NS1) contains various activities required for parvoviral DNA replication, like endonuclease, helicase and ATPase, which are regulated by serine/threonine phosphorylation. However, for PfDNV, NS1 endonuclease activity has not been determined...
Peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) is an important pathogen that seriously influences the productivity of small ruminants worldwide. Although PPRV is known to induce apoptosis in infected cells, the interaction between PPRV and permissive cells requires further elucidation. Here, we provide the first evidence that PPRV infection triggered autophagy in Vero cells based on the appearance of abundant...
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is severely limited in its natural host, primary human keratinocytes. Our data show HPV infectivity in primary keratinocytes is over 100- and 1,000-fold lower than in established keratinocyte cell lines NIKS and HaCaT, respectively. Here, we show that the basal level of autophagy in primary human foreskin keratinocytes (HFKs) is higher than in immortalized keratinocytes,...
