Minimal cis-acting elements required for adenovirus genome packaging.
The design of drugs for treatment of virus infections and the exploitation of viruses as drugs for treatment of diseases could be made more successful by understanding the molecular mechanisms of virus-specific events. The process of assembly, and more specifically packaging of the genome into a capsid, is an obligatory step leading to future infections. To enhance our understanding of the mole...
متن کاملIdentification of cis-acting sequences required for selective packaging of bovine adenovirus type 3 DNA.
The assembly of adenovirus particles is a multistep process, in which viral genomic DNA is selected and subsequently inserted into preformed empty capsids. The selective encapsidation of the adenovirus genome is directed by cis-acting packaging motifs, termed A repeats due to their AT-rich character in DNA sequence. A repeats are usually located at the left end of the viral genome. In this repo...
متن کاملcis-Acting elements important for retroviral RNA packaging specificity.
Spleen necrosis virus (SNV) proteins can package RNA from distantly related murine leukemia virus (MLV), whereas MLV proteins cannot package SNV RNA efficiently. We used this nonreciprocal recognition to investigate regions of packaging signals that influence viral RNA encapsidation specificity. Although the MLV and SNV packaging signals (Psi and E, respectively) do not contain significant sequ...
متن کاملComponents of Adenovirus Genome Packaging
Adenoviruses (AdVs) are icosahedral viruses with double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) genomes. Genome packaging in AdV is thought to be similar to that seen in dsDNA containing icosahedral bacteriophages and herpesviruses. Specific recognition of the AdV genome is mediated by a packaging domain located close to the left end of the viral genome and is mediated by the viral packaging machinery. Our unders...
متن کاملcis-acting sequences required for coronavirus infectious bronchitis virus defective-RNA replication and packaging.
The parts of the RNA genome of infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) required for replication and packaging of the RNA were investigated using deletion mutagenesis of a defective RNA (D-RNA) CD-61 (6.1 kb) containing a chloramphenicol acetyltransferase reporter gene. A D-RNA with the first 544, but not as few as 338, nucleotides (nt) of the 5' terminus was replicated; the 5' untranslated region (UT...
