Studies of viral and cellular proteins involved in herpes simplex virus type-1 egress
(2019-01-26)The egress pathway of herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) is a complicated process mediated by co-ordinated activity of several virus glycoproteins. The virions are first assembled and enveloped at trans-Golgi-network (TGN) or ... -
Understanding chicken BG genes at the RNA and protein levels
(2019-01-31)The chicken BG system is a highly polymorphic and polygenic multigene family encoding type I transmembrane proteins, with butryophilins as homologues in mammals, some of which are crucial in T cell regulation. There are ... -
An investigation into BK Polyomavirus and host-virus interactions
(2018-11-19)The potentially oncogenic human pathogen BK Polyomavirus (BKPyV) was first identified in 1971 and has since been associated with a number of diseases primarily in immunosuppressed patients. Infection is established in early ... -
Human Parainfluenza Virus 3: Genetic Diversity, Virulence and Antiviral Susceptibility
(2019-02-23)Human parainfluenza 3 (HPIV3) is a member of the Paramyxoviridae, a single strain negative-sense non-segmented RNA virus in the order Mononegavirales. It is a respiratory pathogen with a broad spectrum of presentations for ...
