Rabies Virus Hijacks and Accelerates the p75NTR Retrograde Axonal Transport Machinery - 14 views

  • Our data support this finding, as we demonstrated that RABV is transported in acidic compartments (Fig. 6), and mostly in p75NTR-positive endosomes (Fig. 7).

      Why is RABV transported in acidic compartments?

Virus-Mediated Compartmentalization of the Host Translational Machinery - 22 views

  • Similarly, the viral single-stranded RNA binding protein σNS localized to the factory margins and had a tubulovesicular staining pattern that extended a short distance from the margins of the factories and colocalized with endoplasmic reticulum (ER) markers.

      This reovirus has single-stranded RNA rather than double stranded. Research. σNS is a binding protein that has an affinitiy for single-stranded RNA. Why is it used for doulbe-stranded RNA.

HSV carrying WT REST establishes latency but reactivates only if the synthesis of REST ... - 7 views

      I thought this process of finding out that the HCLR complex activates from stress was very interesting. Using WT viral genomes appears to be a very effective way to test many virus functions.

      I was just wondering why the virus goes into a latent after 30 days? What exactly is it waiting to do and what conditions need to be present for it to become active again.
