Alphavirus particles are covered by 80 glycoprotein spikes that are essential for viral entry. Spikes consist of the E2 receptor binding protein and the E1 fusion protein. Spike assembly occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum, where E1 associates with pE2, a precursor containing E3 and E2 proteins. E3 is a small, cysteine-rich, extracellular glycoprotein that mediates proper folding of pE2 and its...

Photosensitivity plays an essential role in the response of plants to their changing environments throughout their life cycle. In soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill], several associations between photosensitivity and maturity loci are known, but only limited information at the molecular level is available. The FT3 locus is one of the quantitative trait loci (QTL) for flowering time that correspo...

E3 ubiquitin ligases are a large family of proteins that are engaged in the regulation of the turnover and activity of many target proteins. Together with ubiquitin-activating enzyme E1 and ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2, E3 ubiquitin ligases catalyze the ubiquitination of a variety of biologically significant protein substrates for targeted degradation through the 26S proteasome, as well as f...

The photoperiodic sensitivity of soybean (Glycine max L.) is one the limiting factors affecting plant growth and yield. At higher latitudes, early flowering maturity with neutral reaction to photoperiods are required for adaptation plants long-day conditions. Currently, production distribution new varieties soybeans adapted widespread agricultural regions in northern Kazakhstan strong demand. E...

The aim of this study was to investigate the possible role of multiple inherited thrombophilic gene variations in women with unexplained spontaneous abortions. For this purpose, the Factor V Leiden (FVL) (rs6025), Prothrombin G20210A (rs1799963), MTHFR C677T (rs1801133), PAI-1 4G/5G (rs1799889), ACE I/D (rs1799752), eNOS E298D (rs1799983), and Apo E E2/E3/E4 (rs429358) polymorphisms were genoty...

Alphaviruses are small enveloped viruses whose surface is covered by spikes composed of trimers of E2/E1 glycoprotein heterodimers. During virus entry, the E2/E1 dimer dissociates within the acidic endosomal environment, freeing the E1 protein to mediate fusion of the viral and endosome membranes. E2 is synthesized as a precursor, p62, which is cleaved by furin in the late secretory pathway to ...

We give the classification of 3-dimensional Bol algebras associated to the trilinears operations (e2, e3, e2) = e1 ; (e2, e3, e3) = ±e2. It turn that for such trilinears operation there exist up to isomorphism and isotopy one family and one exceptional Bol algebras. We describe their associated 3-webs.

The vaccinia virus E3 protein is an important intracellular modulator of innate immunity that can be split into distinct halves. The C terminus contains a well defined dsRNA-binding domain, whereas the N terminus contains a Z-DNA-binding domain, and both domains are required for virulence. In this study, we investigated whether the E3 Z-DNA-binding domain functions by sequestering cytoplasmic d...

Animal cell viruses provide valuable model systems for studying many normal cellular processes, including membrane protein sorting. The focus of this study is an integral membrane protein encoded by the E3 transcription region of human adenoviruses called E3-13.7, which diverts recycling EGF receptors to lysosomes without increasing the rate of receptor internalization or intrinsic receptor tyr...
