Signal recognition particle protein 19 is imported into the nucleus by importin 8 (RanBP8) and transportin.
The signal recognition particle (SRP) is a cytoplasmic RNA-protein complex that targets proteins to the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Although SRP functions in the cytoplasm, RNA microinjection and cDNA transfection experiments in animal cells, as well as genetic analyses in yeast, have indicated that SRP assembles in the nucleus. Nonetheless, the mechanisms responsible for nuclear-cytoplasmic t...
متن کاملPhosphorylation by MAPK regulates simian immunodeficiency virus Vpx protein nuclear import and virus infectivity.
Transport of the viral genome into the nucleus required phosphorylation of components in the preintegration complex by virion-associated host cellular kinases. In this study, we showed that ERK-2/MAPK is associated with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) virions and regulated the nuclear transport of Vpx and virus replication in non-proliferating target cells by phosphorylating Vpx. Suppressio...
متن کاملImportin 7 may be dispensable for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 and simian immunodeficiency virus infection of primary macrophages.
In an in vitro assay employing reconstituted nuclei, importin 7 (IPO7) has been implicated in nuclear translocation of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) cDNA. Using RNA interference technology, we inhibited expression of IPO7 by 80 to 95% in primary macrophages and in HeLa cells and monitored their ability to support HIV-1 and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) cDNA synthesis, nuclea...
متن کاملHerpes simplex virus type-1 induces IFN-alpha production via Toll-like receptor 9-dependent and -independent pathways.
Type I IFN production in response to the DNA virus herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1) is essential in controlling viral replication. We investigated whether plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC) were the major tissue source of IFN-alpha, and whether the production of IFN-alpha in response to HSV-1 depended on Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9). Total spleen cells or bone marrow (BM) cells, or fractions ...
متن کاملThe rate of progression to AIDS is independent of virus dose in simian immunodeficiency virus-infected macaques.
Of the viral factors that are proposed to influence the rate of progression to AIDS, the role of infectious dose remains unresolved. Intravenous infection of outbred Macaca mulatta with various doses of simian immunodeficiency virus isolate 8980 (SIV(8980)) revealed an endpoint from which an infectious dose 50 (ID(50)) was defined. In the six infected animals, the time to develop AIDS was varia...
