Molecular Characterization of the Epstein-Barr Virus BGLF2 Gene, its Expression, and Subcellular Localization
Background: Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) is a universal herpes virus which can cause a life-long and largely asymptomatic infection in the human population. However, the exact pathogenesis of the EBV infection is not well known.Objective: A comprehensive bioinformatics prediction was carried out for investigating the molecular properties of the BGLF2 and to a...
متن کاملSubcellular localization of hepatitis E virus (HEV) replicase.
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is a hepatotropic virus with a single sense-strand RNA genome of approximately 7.2 kb in length. Details of the intracellular site of HEV replication can pave further understanding of HEV biology. In-frame fusion construct of functionally active replicase-enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) gene was made in eukaryotic expression vector. The functionality of replica...
متن کاملTargeting of hepatitis C virus core protein to mitochondria through a novel C-terminal localization motif.
The hepatitis C virus (HCV) core protein represents the first 191 amino acids of the viral precursor polyprotein and is cotranslationally inserted into the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Processing at position 179 by a recently identified intramembrane signal peptide peptidase leads to the generation and potential cytosolic release of a 179-amino-acid matured form of the core prote...
متن کاملSubcellular localization and function of an epitope-tagged p7 viroporin in hepatitis C virus-producing cells.
The hepatitis C virus (HCV) viroporin p7 is crucial for production of infectious viral progeny. However, its role in the viral replication cycle remains incompletely understood, in part due to the poor availability of p7-specific antibodies. To circumvent this obstacle, we inserted two consecutive hemagglutinin (HA) epitope tags at its N terminus. HA-tagged p7 reduced peak virus titers ca. 10-f...
متن کاملHepatitis C virus and skin
Nowadays viral hepatitis is one of the most common and important causes of chronic liver disorders in the world. Extrahepatic manifestations of viral hepatitis consist a main part of the disease. The main viruses causing hepatitis include Hepatitis A, B and C viruses. Herein common skin manifestations in hepatitis C virus (HCV) are discussed. Chronic hepatitis causes skin disorders both directl...
