A New Mechanistic Model for Viral Cross Protection and Superinfection Exclusion
Plants pre-infected with a mild variant of a virus frequently become protected against more severe variants of the same virus through the cross protection phenomenon first discovered in 1929. Despite its widespread use in managing important plant virus diseases, the mechanism of cross protection remains poorly understood. Recent investigations in our labs, by analyzing the whole-plant dynamics ...
متن کاملSuperinfection exclusion by bacteriophage T7.
Only two of the early genes of bacteriophage T7 were found to play a significant role in exclusion of superinfecting bacteriophage T3 particles; genes 0.3 and 1. Protein synthesis by the preinfecting phage particle was not required for efficient exclusion. These findings are discussed with regard to the known functions of these genes during T7 development.
متن کاملA Mathematical Model for Flood Protection
Many regions in the world are protected against flooding by a dike, which may be either natural or artificial. We deal with a model for finding the optimal heights of such a dike in the future. It minimizes the sum of the investments costs for upgrading the dike in the future and the expected costs due to flooding. The model is highly nonlinear, nonconvex, and infinite-dimensional. Despite this...
متن کاملgD-Independent Superinfection Exclusion of Alphaherpesviruses.
UNLABELLED Many viruses have the capacity to prevent a cell from being infected by a second virus, often termed superinfection exclusion. Alphaherpesviruses, including the human pathogen herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) and the animal herpesvirus pseudorabies virus (PRV), encode a membrane-bound glycoprotein, gD, that can interfere with subsequent virion entry. We sought to characterize the timin...
متن کاملRequirement of Protein Synthesis for Bacteriophage stX 174 Superinfection Exclusion
Within 5 to 10 min at 37 C, bacteria infected by bacteriophage OX174 acquire the ability to exclude superinfecting OX particles from reproducing themselves. The superinfecting phage are blocked at a stage prior to synthesis of the parental replicative form molecule; the superinfecting deoxyribonucleic acid remains as intact (infective) single strands. Establishment of superinfection exclusion a...
