Abstract:
<p>The process of viral infection spreading in tissues was influenced by various factors, including virus replication within host cells, transportation, and the immune response. Reaction-diffusion systems provided a suitable framework for examining this process. In this work, we studied a nonlocal reaction-diffusion system of equations that modeled the distribution of viruses based on their genotypes and their interaction with the immune response. It was shown that the infection may persist at a certain level alongside a chronic immune response, exhibiting spatially uniform or oscillator

Abstract:
RNA viruses offer a very exciting arena in which to study evolution in ‘real time’ owing to both their high replication rate—many generations per day are possible—and their high mutation rate, leading to a large phenotypic variety. They can be regarded as a swarm of genetically related mutants around a dominant or master genetic sequence. This system is called a ‘viral quasi-species’. Thus, a common framework to describe RNA viral dynamics is by means of the quasi-species equation (QSE). The QSE is in fact a system of a very large number of nonlinear coupled equations.

HIV persists via integration of the viral DNA into the human genome.

However, viral replication should be better described by including stochasticity, as the cell infection process is typically initiated with a very small number of RNA macromolecules, and thus largely influenced by intrinsic noise.

Abstract:
To explore how particularities of a host cell–virus system, and in particular host cell replication, affect viral evolution, in this paper we formulate a mathematical model of marine bacteriophage evolution. The intrinsic simplicity of real-life phage–bacteria systems, and in particular aquatic systems, for which the assumption of homogeneous mixing is well justified, allows for a reasonably simple model. The model constructed in this paper is based upon the Beretta–Kuang model of bacteria–phage interaction in an aquatic environment (Beretta &amp; Kuang 1998 Math. Biosci. 149 , 57–76. ( doi:10

Abstract:
Abstract Viral infections often result in quasi-species of virus strains that can have dramatic impacts on disease outcomes or experimental results. However, sequencing of viruses to determine strain composition is time consuming and often cost-prohibitive. Rapid, cost-effective methods are needed for accurate measurement of virus diversity in order to design appropriate treatment, and can be useful for many experimental systems. We have developed a novel molecular method for simple and accurate detection of RNA virus genetic variants using Tentacle probes coupled with quantitative PCR. Tentac

Abstract:
Current high-throughput sequencing technologies can generate sequence data and provide information on the genetic composition of samples at very high coverage. Deep sequencing approaches enable the detection of rare variants in heterogeneous samples, such as viral quasi-species, but also have the undesired effect of amplifying sequencing errors and artefacts. Distinguishing real variants from such noise is not straightforward. Variant callers that can handle pooled samples can be in trouble at extremely high read depths, while at lower depths sensitivity is often sacrificed to specificity. In

ABSTRACT In this report, we assessed the evolution of the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) response induced by an epitope vaccine. In two macaques immunized with a mixture of lipopeptides derived from simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) Nef and Gag proteins, CTL responses were directed against the same, single epitope of the Nef protein (amino acids 128 to 137) presenting an alanine at position 136 (Nef 128-137/136A). However, after 5 months of SIV infection, peripheral blood mononuclear cells from both macaques lost their ability to be stimulated by autologous SIV-infected cells while still retai

Abstract:
With its high mutation rate, HIV is capable of escape from recognition, suppression and/or killing by CD8 + cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). The rate at which escape variants replace each other can give insights into the selective pressure imposed by single CTL clones. We investigate the effects of specific characteristics of the HIV life cycle on the dynamics of immune escape. First, it has been found that cells in HIV-infected patients can carry multiple copies of proviruses. To investigate how this process affects the emergence of immune escape, we develop a mathematical model of HIV dynamic

HIV-1 resistance to protease inhibitors (PIs) is characterized by extensive cross-resistance within this drug class.

The high human cost of Zika virus infections and the rapid establishment of virus circulation in novel areas, including the United States, present an urgent need for countermeasures against this emerging threat. The development of an effective vaccine against Zika virus may be problematic because of the cross reactivity of the antibodies with other flaviviruses leading to antibody-dependent enhancement of infection. Moreover, rapidly replicating positive strand RNA viruses, including Zika virus, generate large spectrum of mutant genomes (quasi species) every replication round, allowing rapid s

Organized as pairs of asymmetric dimers, the arrangement is unrelated to quasi-equivalence. The external scaffolding protein contains seven α-helices. The protein's core, α-helices 2 to 6, mediates the vast majority of intra- and interdimer contacts and is strongly conserved in all Microviridae (canonical members are φX174, G4, and α3) external scaffolding proteins.

Currently, information on SARS-CoV-2 and its receptors is limited. O-acetylated SAs interact with the lectin-like spike glycoprotein of SARS CoV-2 for the initial attachment of viruses to enter into the host cells.
