Rabies Infection: An Overview of Lyssavirus-Host Protein Interactions
Viruses are obligatory intracellular parasites that use cell proteins to take the control of the cell functions in order to accomplish their life cycle. Studying the viral-host interactions would increase our knowledge of the viral biology and mechanisms of pathogenesis. Studies on pathogenesis mechanisms of lyssaviruses, which are the causative agents of rabies, have revealed some important ho...
متن کاملHost-rabies virus protein-protein interactions as druggable antiviral targets.
We present an unconventional approach to antiviral drug discovery, which is used to identify potent small molecules against rabies virus. First, we conceptualized viral capsid assembly as occurring via a host-catalyzed biochemical pathway, in contrast to the classical view of capsid formation by self-assembly. This suggested opportunities for antiviral intervention by targeting previously unapp...
متن کاملRole of promyelocytic leukemia protein in host antiviral defense.
Several pathways have been implicated in the establishment of antiviral state in response to interferon (IFN), one of which implicates the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) protein. The PML gene has been discovered 20 years ago and has led to new insights into oncogenesis, apoptosis, cell senescence, and antiviral defense. PML is induced by IFN, leading to a marked increase of expression of PML isof...
متن کاملMolecular identification of transmembrane protein 68 as an endoplasmic reticulum-anchored and brain-specific protein
Acyltransferases catalyze essential reactions in the buildup and remodeling of glycerophospholipids and contribute to the maintenance and diversity of cellular membranes. Transmembrane protein 68 (TMEM68) is an evolutionarily conserved protein of unknown function, that forms a distinct subgroup within the glycerophospholipid acyltransferase family. In the current study we expressed murine TMEM6...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of antiviral protein from silkworm fecal matter
Antiviral proteins (AVP), present in silkworm fecal matter, show activity against nuclear polyhedrosis virus (NPV) in vitro and in vivo. The extract of silkworm fecal matter prepared in phosphate buffer solution of pH 7.5 was subjected to 50% solid ammonium sulfate precipitation to enrich AVP, then which was dialyzed. The dialysate was applied to the column containing silica gel-G, the column e...
