Abstract:
The structural integrity of viral envelopes is a critical determinant of infectivity for enveloped viruses, directly influencing vector stability, functional accuracy of surface-displayed epitopes, and preservation of native conformational states required for membrane protein studies. However, conventional purification methods often disrupt envelope integrity and cause envelope proteins to lose their activity. Here, we systematically compared discontinuous, continuous, and optimized continuous sucrose density gradient centrifugation protocols for purifying Autographa californica multiple nucle

ABSTRACT The outer envelope of the extracellular form of vaccinia virus contains five virus-encoded proteins, F13, A33, A34, A56, and B5, that, with the exception of A56, are implicated in virus egress or infectivity. A34, a type II transmembrane glycoprotein, is involved in the induction of actin tails, the release of enveloped virus from the surfaces of infected cells, and the disruption of the virus envelope after ligand binding prior to virus entry. To investigate interactions between A34 and other envelope proteins, a recombinant vaccinia virus (vA34RHA) expressing an epitope-tagged versi

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Primary envelopment of several herpesviruses has been shown to occur by budding of intranuclear capsids through the inner nuclear membrane. By subsequent fusion of the primary envelope with the outer nuclear membrane, capsids are released into the cytoplasm and gain their final envelope by budding into vesicles in thetrans-Golgi area. We show here that the product of the UL34 gene of pseudorabies virus, an alphaherpesvirus of swine, is localized in transfected and infected cells in the nuclear membrane. It is also detected in the envelope of virions in the perinuclear space but is und

Abstract:
Porcine reproductive and respiratory virus (PRRSV) is an enveloped positive-sense RNA virus of the family Arteriviridae that causes severe and persistent disease in pigs worldwide. The PRRSV virion consists of a lipid envelope that contains several envelope proteins surrounding a nucleocapsid core that encapsidates the RNA genome. To provide a better understanding of the structure and assembly of PRRSV, we have carried out cryo-electron microscopy and tomographic reconstruction of virions grown in MARC-145 cells.

Four morphologically distinct structures: the nucleocapsid, tegument, envelope and helical surface projections, were observed in purified GpSGHV virions by electron microscopy.

SUMMARY The cell wall envelopes of gram-positive bacteria represent a surface organelle that not only functions as a cytoskeletal element but also promotes interactions between bacteria and their environment. Cell wall peptidoglycan is covalently and noncovalently decorated with teichoic acids, polysaccharides, and proteins. The sum of these molecular decorations provides bacterial envelopes with species- and strain-specific properties that are ultimately responsible for bacterial virulence, interactions with host immune systems, and the development of disease symptoms or successful outcomes o

Several lines of evidence are provided that wHDV infects not only cultured primary woodchuck hepatocytes (PWH) but also primary human hepatocytes (PHH). Surprisingly, HBV-enveloped HDV (hHDV) and wHDV infected PHH with comparable efficiencies; however, hHDV did not infect PWH.

Previously, relatively large (&gt;100 residues) protein ligands to cell surface receptors have been inserted at or near the N terminus of retroviral envelope proteins. Although viral tropism could be altered, the chimeric envelope proteins lacked full activity, and coexpression of wild-type envelope was required for production of transducing virus.
