Abstract:
ABSTRACT Enveloped viruses are highly dependent on their lipid envelopes for entry into and infection of host cells. Here, we have examined the role of cholesterol in the virus envelope, using methyl-β-cyclodextrin depletion. Pretreatment of virions with methyl-β-cyclodextrin efficiently depleted envelope cholesterol from influenza virus and significantly reduced virus infectivity in a dose-dependent manner. A nonenveloped virus, simian virus 40, was not affected by methyl-β-cyclodextrin treatment. In the case of influenza virus, infectivity could be partially rescued by the addition of exogen

Abstract:
SummaryDuring activation of amphibian eggs, cortical granule exocytosis causes elaborate ultrastructural changes in the vitelline envelope. These changes involve modifications in the structure of the vitelline envelope and formation of a fertilization envelope (FE) that can no longer be penetrated by sperm. In Bufo arenarum, as the egg traverses the oviduct, the vitelline envelope is altered by a trypsin-like protease secreted by the oviduct, which induces an increased susceptibility of the vitelline envelope to sperm lysins. Full-grown oocytes of B. arenarum, matured in vitro by progesterone,

Abstract:
We have used enzymic digestion as a structural probe to investigate components of the nuclear envelope of germinal vesicles from Xenopus oocytes. Previous studies have shown that these envelopes are composed of a double membrane in which nuclear pore complexes are embedded. The nuclear pore complexes are linked to a fibrous lamina that underlies the nucleoplasmic face of the envelope. The pores are also linked by pore-connecting fibrils that attach near their cytoplasmic face. Xenopus oocyte nuclear envelopes were remarkably resistant to extraction with salt solutions and, even after treatment

The reformation of functioning organelles at the end of mitosis presents a problem in vesicle targeting.

Egg membrane vesicles could be fractionated into two populations, only one of which was competent for nuclear envelope assembly. We found that vesicles activ

ABSTRACT Hepatitis C virus (HCV) encodes two envelope glycoproteins, E1 and E2, that assemble as a noncovalent heterodimer which is mainly retained in the endoplasmic reticulum. Because assembly into particles and secretion from the cell lead to structural changes in viral envelope proteins, characterization of the proteins associated with the virion is necessary in order to better understand how they mature to be functional in virus entry. There is currently no efficient and reliable cell culture system to amplify HCV, and the envelope glycoproteins associated with the virion have therefore n

Abstract:
ABSTRACTEndoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident glucosidases I and II sequentially trim the three terminal glucose moieties on the N-linked glycans attached to nascent glycoproteins. These reactions are the first steps of N-linked glycan processing and are essential for proper folding and function of many glycoproteins. Because most of the viral envelope glycoproteins contain N-linked glycans, inhibition of ER glucosidases with derivatives of 1-deoxynojirimycin, i.e., iminosugars, efficiently disrupts the morphogenesis of a broad spectrum of enveloped viruses.

The vitelline envelope of Atlantic halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus) is composed mainly of two major and two minor proteins. Estradiol-17ß induces the two major vitelline envelope proteins in halibut of both sexes. These proteins were also found in plasma of vitellogenic females. The origin of the two major vitelline envelope proteins is not restricted to the ovary, as male halibut synthesize these proteins after treatment with estradiol-17ß. Individual female halibut were followed and plasma sampled from May to March. Plasma levels of estradiol-17ß increased in October, peaked in early Febr

The cell envelope is essential for viability in all domains of life. It retains enzymes and substrates within a confined space while providing a protective barrier to the external environment. Destabilising the envelope of bacterial pathogens is a common strategy employed by antimicrobial treatment. However, even in one of the best studied organisms, Escherichia coli, there remain gaps in our understanding of how the synthesis of the successive layers of the cell envelope are coordinated during growth and cell division.

In this study, the role of cholesterol in the envelope of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) was examined by using methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MβCD) depletion. When cholesterol was removed from HHV-6 virions with MβCD, infectivity was abolished, but it could be rescued by the addition of exogenous cholesterol. HHV-6 binding was affected slightly by MβCD treatment. In contrast, envelope cholesterol depletion markedly affected HHV-6 infectivity and HHV-6-induced cell fusion. These results suggest that the cholesterol present in the HHV-6 envelope plays a prominent role in the fusion process and is a key com

One of these activities is the ability to enhance infectivity and the formation of proviral DNA. The mechanism of this enhancement remains incompletely understood. We show that virions with nef deleted can be restored to wild-type infectivity by stimulating intravirion reverse transcription.

Interindividual variability in drug response is a major problem in the prescription of pharmacological treatments. The therapeutic effect of drugs can be influenced by human genes. Pharmacogenomic guidelines for individualization of treatment have been validated and used for conventional dosage forms. However, drugs can often target non-specific areas and produce both desired and undesired pharmacological effects. The use of nanoparticles, liposomes, or other available forms for drug formulation could help to overcome the latter problem. Virus-like particles based on retroviruses could be a po
