Activation of MDA5 requires higher-order RNA structures generated during virus infection.
Recognition of virus presence via RIG-I (retinoic acid inducible gene I) and/or MDA5 (melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5) initiates a signaling cascade that culminates in transcription of innate response genes such as those encoding the alpha/beta interferon (IFN-alpha/beta) cytokines. It is generally assumed that MDA5 is activated by long molecules of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) pro...
متن کاملA New Class of Spatial Covariance Functions Generated by Higher-order Kernels
Covariance functions and variograms play a fundamental role in exploratory analysis and statistical modelling of spatial and spatio-temporal datasets. In this paper, we construct a new class of spatial covariance functions using the Fourier transform of some higher-order kernels. Moreover, we extend this class of spatial covariance functions to the spatio-temporal setting using the idea used in...
متن کاملDynamics of viral RNA synthesis during measles virus infection.
We propose a reference model of the kinetics of a viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (vRdRp) activities and its regulation during infection of eucaryotic cells. After measles virus infects a cell, mRNAs from all genes immediately start to accumulate linearly over the first 5 to 6 h and then exponentially until approximately 24 h. The change from a linear to an exponential accumulation correlate...
متن کاملVaccinia Virus Infection Requires Maturation of Macropinosomes
The prototypic poxvirus, vaccinia virus (VACV), occurs in two infectious forms, mature virions (MVs) and extracellular virions (EVs). Both enter HeLa cells by inducing macropinocytic uptake. Using confocal microscopy, live-cell imaging, targeted RNAi screening and perturbants of endosome maturation, we analyzed the properties and maturation pathway of the macropinocytic vacuoles containing VACV...
متن کاملPacking of a specific gene into higher order structures following repression of RNA synthesis
Transcription of the Balbiani ring (BR) genes of the dipteran Chironomus tentans was inhibited by teh nucleoside analogue DRB (5,6-dichloro-1-beta-D-ribofuranosyl benzimidazole). The BR genes were emptied of RNA polymerases and the subsequent packing of the genes was monitored by transmission electron microscopy. The thin chromatin axis of the transcriptionally active genes condensed into a thi...
