Abstract:
ABSTRACT Expression of the retroviral Gag protein leads to formation of virus-like particles in mammalian cells. In vitro and in vivo experiments show that nucleic acid is also required for particle assembly. However, several studies have demonstrated that chimeric proteins in which the nucleocapsid domain of Gag is replaced by a leucine zipper motif can also assemble efficiently in mammalian cells. We have now analyzed assembly by chimeric proteins in which nucleocapsid of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Gag is replaced by either a dimerizing or a trimerizing zipper. Both proteins

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The nucleocapsid (NC) domain of retroviruses plays a critical role in specific viral RNA packaging and virus assembly. RNA is thought to facilitate viral particle assembly, but the results described here with NC mutants indicate that it also plays a critical role in particle integrity. We investigated the assembly and integrity of particles produced by the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 M1-2/BR mutant virus, in which 10 of the 13 positive residues of NC have been replaced with alanines and incorporation of viral genomic RNA is virtually abolished. We found that the mutations in t

ABSTRACTThe assembly of influenza A virus at the plasma membrane of infected cells leads to release of enveloped virions that are typically round in tissue culture-adapted strains but filamentous in strains isolated from patients. The viral proteins hemagglutinin (HA), neuraminidase (NA), matrix protein 1 (M1), and M2 ion channel all contribute to virus assembly. When expressed individually or in combination in cells, they can all, under certain conditions, mediate release of membrane-enveloped particles, but their relative roles in virus assembly, release, and morphology remain unclear.

ABSTRACT We have constructed a series of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)gag mutants by progressive truncation of thegag coding sequence from the C terminus and have combined these mutants with an assembly-competent matrix domain deletion mutation (ΔMA). By using several methods, the particle-producing capabilities of each mutant were examined. Our analysis indicated that truncated Gag precursors lacking most of C-terminal gaggene products assembled and were released from 293T cells. Additionally, a mutant with a combined deletion of the MA (ΔMA) and p6 domains even produced particles at lev

ABSTRACT Purified retrovirus Gag proteins can assemble in vitro into virus-like particles (VLPs) in the presence of RNA. It was shown previously that a Rous sarcoma virus Gag protein missing only the protease domain forms spherical particles resembling immature virions lacking a membrane but that a similar protein missing the p10 domain forms tubular particles. Thus, p10 plays a role in spherical particle formation. To further study this shape-determining function, we dissected the p10 domain by mutagenesis and examined VLPs assembled within Escherichia coli or assembled in vitro from purified

ABSTRACT The assembly of the alphavirus nucleocapsid core is a multistep event requiring the association of the nucleocapsid protein with nucleic acid and the subsequent oligomerization of capsid proteins into an assembled core particle. Although the mechanism of assembly has been investigated extensively both in vivo and in vitro, no intermediates in the core assembly pathway have been identified. Through the use of both truncated and mutant Sindbis virus nucleocapsid proteins and a variety of cross-linking reagents, a possible nucleic acid-protein assembly intermediate has been detected. The

ABSTRACT Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) normally assembles into particles of 100 to 120 nm in diameter by budding through the plasma membrane of the cell. The Gag polyprotein is the only viral protein that is required for the formation of these particles. We have used an in vitro assembly system to examine the assembly properties of purified, recombinant HIV-1 Gag protein and of Gag missing the C-terminal p6 domain (Gag Δp6).

ABSTRACT The large form of the hepatitis delta virus (HDV) protein (L) can be isoprenylated near its C terminus, and this modification is considered essential for particle assembly. Using gel electrophoresis, we separated L into two species of similar mobilities. The slower species could be labeled by the incorporation of [14C]mevalonolactone and is interpreted to be isoprenylated L (Li). In serum particles, infected liver, transfected cells, and assembled particles, 25 to 85% of L was isoprenylated. Isoprenylation was also demonstrated by 14C incorporation in vitro with a rabbit reticulocyte

Viruses are infectious agents that must infect the cells of living organisms in order to reproduce. They have relatively simple genomes which encode few proteins but can compensate for their simplicity by hijacking components of their cellular hosts. Arenaviruses, a family of zoonotic viruses carried by rodents, encode only 4 proteins. One of these proteins, Z, is responsible for several functions during the virus life cycle including driving the formation and release of new virus particles at the plasma membrane of infected cells.

Abstract:
Abstract The small (S) envelope protein of the Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), HBV-S, has the unique ability to self-assemble into highly immunogenic subviral particles (SVPs), in the absence of other viral factors, in eukaryotic cells, including those of nonhepatic origin. This feature is currently exploited for generation of SVPs exposing heterologous epitopes on their surface that can be used as vaccine candidates to target various diseases. Here, we describe a simple and robust method for production of such chimeric HBV-S protein-based SVPs in transiently transfected HEK293T cells and purification from cell supernatants by ultracentrifugation on sucrose cushion and sucrose step gradients. The SVPs obtained by this methodology have been successfully used in immunogenicity studies in animal models.

Abstract:
In order to be classified as a virus, certain criteria have to be fulfilled. Viruses must ● Be only capable of growth and multiplication within living cells, i.e. obligate intracellular parasite. Host cells could include humans, animals, insects, plants, protozoa, or even bacteria. ● Have a nucleic acid genome (either RNA or DNA, but not both) surrounded by a protein coat (capsid). ● Have no semipermeable membrane, though some have an envelope formed of phospholipids and proteins. ● Be inert outside of the host cell. Enveloped viruses are susceptible to inactivation by organic solvents such as alcohol. ● Perform replication by independent synthesis of components followed by assembly (c.f. binary fission in bacteria). Viruses are considered as a bundle of genetic programmes encoded in nucleic acids and packaged with a capsid +/ - envelope protein, which can be activated on entry into a host cell (compare this with computer viruses packaged in an enticing way in order to infect and take over control of your PC). Although they share some similarities in their properties, mycoplasma and chlamydia are true bacteria. The virion (assembled infectious particle) consists of viral nucleic acid and capsid. The nucleic acid of a virus can either be ribonucleic acid (RNA) or deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), and the amount of genetic material varies widely, with some viruses able to encode a few proteins and others having genetic material that encodes hundreds of proteins. In association with the nucleic acid there may be non- structural viral proteins, such as a viral polymerase. The nucleic acid and non- structural proteins are protected by a surrounding layer of capsid proteins. The capsid includes proteins which can attach to host cell receptors. The proteins and the cell receptors to which they bind determine a virus’ tropism, i.e., the ability to bind to and enter different cell types. The term nucleocapsid refers to the nucleic acid core surrounded by capsid protein. Some viruses also have an envelope made up of phospholipids and proteins surrounding the nucleocapsid. This envelope can be formed by the host cell membrane during the process of a virus budding from a cell during replication.
