Digital‐imaging microscopy was performed to study the effect of Coxsackie B3 virus
infection on the cytosolic free Ca 2+ concentration and the Ca 2+ content of the endoplasmic …

Expression of poliovirus protein 2B in mammalian cells inhibits protein secretion and
increases the susceptibility of the cells to hygromycin B, consistent with the increase in plasma …

Recently, homomultimerization and heteromultimerization reactions of the poliovirus P2 region
proteins were investigated using a yeast two-hybrid approach (Cuconati et al., Journal of …

The discovery that extracellular vesicles (EVs) serve as carriers of virus particles calls for a
reevaluation of the release strategies of non-enveloped viruses. Little is currently known …

Encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV), like hepatitis C virus (HCV), requires phosphatidylinositol
4-kinase IIIα (PI4KA) for genome replication. Here, we demonstrate that tyrphostin …

The 2B proteins of coxsackievirus and poliovirus (PV) share significant structural similarity
and exhibit similar biochemical activities, namely inhibition of protein secretion and …

Objective: The presence of the retrovirus xenotropic murine leukaemia virus-related virus (XMRV)
has been reported in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients with chronic …

In this study, the prevalence of mycoplasmas in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC)
from HIV-infected individuals was investigated using a mycoplasma genusspecific PCR …

The emerging porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) requires trypsin supplementation to
activate its S protein for membrane fusion and virus propagation in cell culture. By …

Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) targets the epithelial cells of the
respiratory tract both in humans and in its natural host, the dromedary camel. Virion …
