چکیده

The intracellular replication of MVL51, a group L1 mycoplasmavirus, was investigated. The single-stranded parental DNA was found to enter the cell and become converted to double-stranded DNA. This replicated to yield additional double-stranded DNA molecules. The parental viral DNA was found to leave the replication complex and become associated with large molecular weight DNA not involved with viral replication. Progeny viral DNA formed from the double-stranded DNA and an intracellular accumulation of virus chromosome size DNA was observed. The interpretation of this data and a suggested model for the viral replication are discussed and compared to viral DNA replication models for other single-stranded DNA viruses.

Cellular SRC kinases and dsRNA dependent protein kinase (PKR) play key role in intracellular viral (CVB3) replication

SRC kinases and PKR are intracellular protein kinases, which play key roles in intracellular viral replication. In this research, the effect of SRC kinase inhibition and PKR activation and inhibition on replication of coxsakievirus (CVB3), an entrovirus of the family picornaviridae – causative agents of fatal myocarditis, was studied. Vero and Hela cells were cultured and infected with CVB3 in ...

Physical characterization of the superhelical DNA genome of an enveloped mycoplasmavirus.

Mycoplasmavirus MVL2 is a nonlytic enveloped virion containing DNA. This DNA has been shown to be a double-stranded circular superhelical molecule of 11.8 kilobase pairs (7.8 X 10(6) daltons). The superhelix density is greater than that of phi X174 RFI but less than that of PM2 phage DNA. A physical map of the MVL2 genome has been obtained using restriction endonucleases.

Properties of a persistent viral infection: possible lysogeny by an enveloped nonlytic mycoplasmavirus.

MVL2, an enveloped double-stranded DNA mycoplasmavirus, causes a nonlytic infection of Acholeplasma laidlawii leading to the establishment of a persistent infection. Persistently infected clones were found to be resistant to superinfection by homologous virus, but could be infected by heterologous virus. Cells in a persistently infected culture had the potential to produce virus and transmitted...

A dual-targeting approach to inhibit Brucella abortus replication in human cells

Brucella abortus is an intracellular bacterial pathogen and an etiological agent of the zoonotic disease known as brucellosis. Brucellosis can be challenging to treat with conventional antibiotic therapies and, in some cases, may develop into a debilitating and life-threatening chronic illness. We used multiple independent assays of in vitro metabolism and intracellular replication to screen a ...
