Coxsackievirus B3 protease 3C induces cell death in eukaryotic cells
Abstract: Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) is the most common agent known to cause viral myocarditis. The viral genome encodes a single polyprotein that is cleaved to produce several proteins by virally encoded proteases. Most of this proteolytic processing is catalyzed by a cysteine protease called 3C. The 3C protease plays major role in viral replication and cellular damage. To understand the mecha...

متن کاملAntiviral activity of coxsackievirus B3 3C protease inhibitor in experimental murine myocarditis.
BACKGROUND We investigated the efficacy of a 3C protease inhibitor (3CPI) in a murine coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) myocarditis model. CVB3 is a primary cause of viral myocarditis. The CVB3 genome encodes a single polyprotein that undergoes a series of proteolytic events to produce several viral proteins. Most of this proteolysis is catalyzed by the 3C protease (3CP). METHODS AND RESULTS By way of...
متن کاملEffect of T68A/N126Y mutations on the conformational and ligand binding landscape of Coxsackievirus B3 3C protease.
3C protease of Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) plays an essential role in the viral replication cycle, and therefore, emerged as an attractive therapeutic target for the treatment of human diseases caused by CVB3 infection. In this study, we report the first account of the molecular impact of the T68A/N126Y double mutant (Mutant(Bound)) using an integrated computational approach. Molecular dynamics si...
متن کاملAmiloride is a competitive inhibitor of coxsackievirus B3 RNA polymerase.
Amiloride and its derivative 5-(N-ethyl-N-isopropyl)amiloride (EIPA) were previously shown to inhibit coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) RNA replication in cell culture, with two amino acid substitutions in the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase 3D(pol) conferring partial resistance of CVB3 to these compounds (D. N. Harrison, E. V. Gazina, D. F. Purcell, D. A. Anderson, and S. Petrou, J. Virol. 82:1465-1...
