Efficient Production of HIV-1 Virus-Like Particles from a Mammalian Expression Vector Requires the N-Terminal Capsid Domain
It is now well accepted that the structural protein Pr55(Gag) is sufficient by itself to produce HIV-1 virus-like particles (VLPs). This polyprotein precursor contains different domains including matrix, capsid, SP1, nucleocapsid, SP2 and p6. In the present study, we wanted to determine by mutagenesis which region(s) is essential to the production of VLPs when Pr55(Gag) is inserted in a mammali...
متن کاملFormation of polyomavirus-like particles with different VP1 molecules that bind the urokinase plasminogen activator receptor.
Icosahedral virus-like particles formed by the self-assembly of polyomavirus capsid proteins (Py-VLPs) can serve as useful nanostructures for delivering nucleic acids, proteins, and pharmaceuticals into animal cells and tissues. Four predominant surface-exposed loops in the VP1 structure offer potential sites to display sequences that might contribute new targeting specificities. Introduction i...
متن کاملOligonucleotide and plasmid DNA packaging into polyoma VP1 virus-like particles expressed in Escherichia coli.
The drug delivery system described here is based on the properties of the capsoid or capsid-like structure resulting from the assembly of polyoma virus capsid protein VP1 expressed in Escherichia coli. The capsid protein VP1 was expressed as a fusion protein with a completely removable N-terminal His6 affinity tag. The pentameric morphology of the recombinant VP1 protein was confirmed by electr...
متن کاملProduction of recombinant VP1-derived virus-like particles from novel human polyomaviruses in yeast
BACKGROUND Eleven new human polyomaviruses (HPyVs) have been identified in the last decade. Serological studies show that these novel HPyVs sub-clinically infect humans at an early age. The routes of infection, entry pathways, and cell tropism of new HPyVs remain unknown. VP1 proteins of polyomaviruses can assembly into virus-like particles (VLPs). As cell culturing systems for HPyV are current...
متن کاملInactivation of a human norovirus surrogate, human norovirus virus-like particles, and vesicular stomatitis virus by gamma irradiation.
Gamma irradiation is a nonthermal processing technology that has been used for the preservation of a variety of food products. This technology has been shown to effectively inactivate bacterial pathogens. Currently, the FDA has approved doses of up to 4.0 kGy to control food-borne pathogens in fresh iceberg lettuce and spinach. However, whether this dose range effectively inactivates food-borne...
