Rotavirus entry: a deep journey into the cell with several exits.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Rotaviruses are the leading etiological agents of acute gastroenteritis in infants and young children worldwide. These nonenveloped viruses enter cells using different types of endocytosis and, depending on the virus strain, travel to different endosomal compartments before exiting to the cytosolic space. In this Gem, we review the viral and cellular factors involved in the different stages of a productive virus cell entry and share with the readers the journey that we have taken into the cell to learn about virus entry.

Cloning and Expression of Simian Rotavirus Spike Protein (VP4) in Insect Cells by Baculovirus Expression System
Background: VP4 protein is as spikes on rotavirus outer capsid shell which is responsible for virus attachment to the host. VP4 induces production of neutralizing antibodies which could be used for serotyping of different isolates. Methods: Simian rotavirus SA11 gene 4 cDNA was cloned into a cloning plasmid pDONRTM by recombination reaction using clonase II enzyme mix. The resulting clone was c...
متن کاملChallenging for Expression Bovine Rotavirus (RF Strain) Full-Length VP7 Protein in Prokaryotic System
Background and Aims: Rotavirus enteritis is an acute viral infectious disease among infants. VP7 protein has a key role in attachment and entry virus into the target cell. The VP7 protein is involved in inducing the production of neutralizing antibodies that protect infants against reinfection of the virus. The aim of this study was to heterologous expression of the VP7 gene of bovine rotavirus...
متن کاملActivation of calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase II following bovine rotavirus enterotoxin NSP4 expression
Objective(s): The rotavirus nonstructural protein 4 (NSP4) is responsible for the increase in cytoplasmic calcium concentration through a phospholipase C-dependent and phospholipase C-independent pathways in infected cells. It is shown that increasing of intracellular calcium concentration in rotavirus infected cells is associated with the activation of some members of protein kinases family su...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Latex Agglutination Method for Diagnosis of Rotavirus Infections
Background: Rotavirus is a major cause of morbidity and mortality among children with gastroenteritis. Since the discovery of rotaviruses, several techniques have been used for their laboratory diagnosis; those included Electron Microscopy (EM) and enzyme immunoassay. These methods, however, are expensive and not readily available everywhere. We have developed a technique which can be used for ...
متن کاملCleavage of rhesus rotavirus VP4 after arginine 247 is essential for rotavirus-like particle-induced fusion from without.
We recently described our finding that recombinant baculovirus-produced virus-like particles (VLPs) can induce cell-cell fusion similar to that induced by intact rotavirus in our assay for viral entry into tissue culture cells (J. M. Gilbert and H. B. Greenberg, J. Virol. 71:4555-4563, 1997). The conditions required for syncytium formation are similar to those for viral penetration of the plasm...
