LearnCoil-VMF: computational evidence for coiled-coil-like motifs in many viral membrane-fusion proteins.
Crystallographic studies have shown that the coiled-coil motif occurs in several viral membrane-fusion proteins, including HIV-1 gp41 and influenza virus hemagglutinin. Here, the LearnCoil-VMF program was designed as a specialized program for identifying coiled-coil-like regions in viral membrane-fusion proteins. Based upon the use of LearnCoil-VMF, as well as other computational tools, we repo...
متن کاملSemistar dimension of polynomial rings and Prufer-like domains
Let $D$ be an integral domain and $star$ a semistar operation stable and of finite type on it. We define the semistar dimension (inequality) formula and discover their relations with $star$-universally catenarian domains and $star$-stably strong S-domains. As an application, we give new characterizations of $star$-quasi-Pr"{u}fer domains and UM$t$ domains in terms of dimension inequal...
متن کاملNegative Potentials Across Biological Membranes Promote Fusion by Class II and Class III Viral Proteins
Voltage was investigated as a factor in the fusion of virions. Virions, pseudotyped with a class II, SFV E1 or VEEV E, or a class III protein, VSV G, were prepared with GFP within the core and a fluorescent lipid. This allowed both hemifusion and fusion to be monitored. Voltage clamping the target cell showed that fusion is promoted by a negative potential and hindered by a positive potential. ...
متن کاملAre Animal Tumor Viruses Always Virus-Like?
Three tumors initiated by well characterized viruses, but in which virus is not detectable by ordinary virological techniques, are discussed. The question of the possible state of the virus within these seemingly non-infectious tumors is considered, largely from the standpoint of findings with the rabbit papilloma virus. This agent in its natural host, the cottontail rabbit, is infective, can b...
متن کاملViral membrane fusion: is glycoprotein G of rhabdoviruses a representative of a new class of viral fusion proteins?
Enveloped viruses always gain entry into the cytoplasm by fusion of their lipid envelope with a cell membrane. Some enveloped viruses fuse directly with the host cell plasma membrane after virus binding to the cell receptor. Other enveloped viruses enter the cells by the endocytic pathway, and fusion depends on the acidification of the endosomal compartment. In both cases, virus-induced membran...
