Triatoma virus structural polyprotein expression, processing and assembly into virus-like particles.
In contrast to the current wealth of structural information concerning dicistrovirus particle structure, very little is known about their morphogenetic pathways. Here, we describe the expression of the two ORFs encoded by the Triatoma virus (TrV) genome. TrV, a member of the Cripavirus genus of the Dicistroviridae family, infects blood-sucking insects belonging to the Triatominae subfamily that...
متن کاملexpression of cucumber mosaic virus coat protein and its assembly into virus like particles
background cucumber mosaic virus (cmv) has isometric particles with a diameter of about 28–29 nm. a useful method to recognize regions from mutagenesis in the coat protein (cp) gene are important for particle assembly and the expression of viral in cp expression systems like bacteria such as e.coli or yeast as well as their assembly into virus-like particles (vlp). objectives in this paper, we ...
متن کاملKinetic and structural analyses of hepatitis C virus polyprotein processing.
Recombinant vaccinia viruses were used to study the processing of hepatitis C virus (HCV) nonstructural polyprotein precursor. HCV-specific proteins and cleavage products were identified by size and by immunoprecipitation with region-specific antisera. A polyprotein beginning with 20 amino acids derived from the carboxy terminus of NS2 and ending with the NS5B stop codon (amino acids 1007 to 30...
متن کاملExpression and self-assembly of empty virus-like particles of hepatitis E virus.
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is a pathogenic agent that causes fecally-orally transmitted acute hepatitis. The genome, a single-stranded positive-sense RNA, encodes three forward open reading frames (ORFs), in which an approximately 2-kb structural protein is located in the 3' end. To produce HEV-like particles the structural protein, with its N terminus truncated (amino acid residues 112 to 660 of ...
متن کاملAssembly of Empty Core-like Particles and Double-shelled, Virus-like Particles of African Horsesickness Virus by Co-expression of Four Major Structural Proteins
In order to increase our understanding of the assembly of the capsid proteins of AHSV, for the development of subunit vaccines and to study viral morphogenesis, it is necessary to investigate the interaction of the four major structural proteins of AHSV in the absence of other AHSV proteins and the viral genome. To investigate particle formation it was necessary to synthesise the proteins of in...
