Marek's Disease Virus (MDV) induces a wide range of neurological syndromes in susceptible hosts; however, the mechanisms behind the MDV-induced neuropathology are still poorly understood. The immediate-early 14kDa phosphoprotein, pp14, is associated with the neurovirulence phenotype of the virus. Yeast-two-hybrid screening identified the ER-bound transcription regulator, human CREB3 (cAMP Response Element-Binding protein), as an interacting partner of pp14, and fluorescence colocalisation between pp14 and chicken CREB3 (chCREB3) in MDV infected cells suggested an interaction between these prot

The Caliciviridae are a group of small, non-enveloped viruses with a positive sense, single stranded RNA genome. Caliciviruses include the noroviruses, responsible for winter vomiting disease, as well as several important veterinary pathogens. Feline calicivirus (FCV) is an excellent model for studying calicivirus entry, having a known protein receptor and being readily propagated in cell culture. Here we explore calicivirus entry, using FCV. Virus entry is the critical first step of infection and is therefore an important area of study. Both alpha 2-6 linked sialic acid and feline junctional

Rotavirus encodes six structural and six non-structural proteins. In contrast to the structural proteins, the functional roles of the non-structural proteins are not well defined beyond a realisation that they must have a role in the viral replication cycle. A fuller understanding of the replication cycle must therefore rest on determining the specific roles played by the non-structural proteins. Non-structural protein NSP1 shows high levels of sequence divergence. A generally well conserved cysteine-rich region at the amino-terminus may form a zinc finger structure.

In recent years, a number of newly discovered tick-borne viruses exhibiting a wide spectrum of diseases in humans have been ascribed to the Phlebovirus genus of the Bunyaviridae family. These viruses have a tripartite RNA genome composed of two negative-sense RNA segments (medium and large) and one ambisense segment (small), which encode four structural proteins and one non-structural protein (NSs). The NSs protein is the major virulence factor of bunyaviruses, and acts as an antagonist of a key component of the first line of defence against viral infections: the interferon (IFN) system (Bridg

Adenoviruses are currently the most commonly used vectors for clinical gene therapy trials. Of these, Ad5 is the most commonly used serotype. Upon intravenous delivery, the vectors are sequestered in the liver which reduces their efficacy. While the coxsackievirus and adenovirus receptor is responsible for in vitro cell entry, this pathway is not used in vivo. Blood coagulation factors have been implicated in mediating in vivo hepatic transduction, and it is therefore important to characterise the interaction between these and Ad5 in order to permit development of more efficacious and safer vi

The rotavirus replication cycle has not been fully characterised, one vital stage of virus replication involves large cytoplasmic occlusion bodies termed viroplasms. These are the sites of synthesis and replication of dsRNA, packaging of viral RNA into newly synthesized cores and the formation of double-shelled previrions. The detailed mechanism by which these events occur is poorly understood but is thought to be mediated by the non-structural proteins localised to these structures.

Influenza A viruses (IAVs) are common infections of certain avian reservoir species, and they periodically transfer to mammalian hosts. These cross-species jumps are usually associated with sporadic outbreaks, and on rare occasions lead to the establishment of a lineage in the new host species. The immune pressure exerted by the new host on the emergent virus forces it to evolve and adopt strategies to evade immunity in order to survive in nature.

Nearly all viruses encapsulate their genomes in protective protein shells known as capsids. Capsids self-assemble from repeating protein subunits, which surround the viral genome. Many viruses use a powerful biomotor to pump DNA into preformed capsid shells. Therefore, not only does the capsid protect the genome from environmental stress, it additionally stabilizes against high internal pressure caused by the tightly-packaged genome inside. To understand how capsids remain stable despite extreme conditions, I use thermophilic bacteriophage P74-26 as a model to probe the structural mechanisms t

The influenza virus causes a disease that kills approximately 500,000 people worldwide each year. Influenza is a negative-sense RNA virus that encodes its own RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. This protein (FluPol) carries out both genome replication and viral transcription. Therefore, like the L-proteins of non-segmented negative-sense RNA (nsRNA) viruses, FluPol also contains mRNA capping and polyadenylation functionality. In FluPol, capping is achieved by snatching cap structures from cellular mRNAs, so requiring cap-binding and endonuclease activities. This makes FluPol a substantial machine.

To explore whether rabies viral variants co-localize with discrete bat host populations (sub-populations), both the host genome and rabies virus of Eptesicus fuscus (big brown bats), Myotis lucifugus (little brown bats) and other Myotis specimens, collected during 1989 to 2004 from diagnostic submissions from across the country, were genetically characterized. Bat species population analysis was performed by nuclear DNA genotyping, scored by variation of several microsatellite loci, and through phylogenetic analysis of Cox-1 (cytochrome oxidase subunit I) gene sequences located on mitochondri

<p> In order to initiate an infection, bacteriophages must deliver their large, hydrophilic genomes across their host&rsquo;s hydrophobic cell wall. Bacteriophage &phiv;X174 accomplishes this task with a set of identical DNA piloting proteins. The structure of the piloting protein&rsquo;s central domain was solved to 2.4 &Aring; resolution. In it, ten proteins are oligomerized into an &alpha;-helical barrel, or tube, that is long enough to span the host&rsquo;s cell wall and wide enough for the circular, ssDNA to pass through. This structure was used as a guide to explore the mechanics of &phi

The herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) UL25 protein (pUL25) is a minor capsid protein that is essential for packaging the full-length viral genome into preformed precursor capsid. It is also important in virus entry and recently has been implicated in the egress of the virus from the cell (Coller et al., 2007, Preston et al., 2008). The crystallographic structure of an N-terminally truncated form of pUL25 (residues 134-580) has been determined to 2.1 Å, revealing a protein with a novel fold that consists mostly of a-helices and a few minor b-sheets (Bowman et al., 2006).

HCV afflicts many millions of people globally, and antiviral therapies are often ineffective and intolerable. The Food and Drug Administration approved the HCV protease inhibitors telaprevir and boceprevir in May 2011, marking an important milestone in anti-HCV research over the past two decades. Nevertheless, severe drug side effects of combination therapy – flu-like symptoms, depression and anemia – limit patient adherence to treatment regimens. The acquisition of resistance challenges the long-term efficacy of antiviral therapies, including protease inhibitors, as suboptimal dosing allows f

The structure of the herpesviruses particle is characterised by an icosahedral capsid surrounded by a proteinaceous tegument layer and is enclosed by a lipid envelope. The understanding of the structure of the capsid, primarily through the use of cyro-electron microscopy, is greater to than of the tegument, due to the typically amorphous nature of the tegument. The interaction between the capsid and tegument has been well studied, unveiling interactions limited to the capsid vertices involving two minor capsid proteins, pUL17 and pUL25, and the large tegument protein pUL36.

Les birnavirus occupent une place particulière parmi les virus icosaédriques non enveloppés. Ils sont à la fois proches des Reoviridae par leur organisation génomique et leur capside T=13 et proches de virus à ARN positif par leurs stratégies réplicatives et de morphogenèse. Ce travail présente la structure de particules subvirales à symétrie icosaédrique T=l de l'IBDV. Ces particules de 260 A de diamètre se composent de 60 sous-unités de la protéine d'attachement du virus, VP2. Celle-ci se replie sous la forme de deux domaines jelly rolls perpendiculaires reposant sur une base riche en hélice

Genome scale ordered RNA structure (GORS) is found throughout the genome of many single stranded positive sense RNA viruses, including plant viruses. It was hypothesised that GORS may function to help evade RNAi either by preventing the generation of siRNAs or by stopping RNAi-mediated cleavage of the target. This project used Potato Leafroll Virus (PLRV) to investigate the function of GORS in plant viruses. The RNA structure of a 750nt region of the genome was modified to have less, more or the same energy as the WT sequence. The physical structure of these sequences was shown to be different

Picornaviruses are important causes of human illness and it is necessary to understand more about how these viruses function. Human parechoviruses (HPeV) are common pathogens and studies have shown that 95% of people become infected with HPeV at a very early age, usually with symptoms such as mild diarrhoea and fever. However, one virus type HPeV3, is implicated in much more serious cases of neonatal disease and so it is important to understand HPeVs to increase the opportunity to develop drugs or vaccines against the infection.

Viral proteases have been shown to be effective targets of anti-viral therapies for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV). However, under the pressure of therapy including protease inhibitors, the virus evolves to select drug resistance mutations both in the protease and substrates. In my thesis study, I aimed to understand the mechanisms of how this protease−substrate co-evolution contributes to drug resistance. Currently, there are no approved drugs against dengue virus (DENV); I investigated substrate recognition by DENV protease and designed cyclic peptides as inhi
