The COVID-19 pandemic made imperative the search for means to end it, which requires a
knowledge of the mechanisms underpinning the multiplication and spread of its cause, the …

Heat shock cognate 71-kDa protein (HSC70), a constitutively expressed molecular
chaperon within the heat shock protein 70 family, plays crucial roles in maintaining cellular …

This study demonstrates that heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) together with its cochaperone
CPIP regulates the function of a potyviral coat protein (CP), which in turn can interfere with …

Chilli leaf curl virus (ChiLCV; genus: Begomovirus), transmitted by Bemisia tabaci
(Gennadius)(Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) in a persistent-circulative manner, is a major …

Viruses require the host translational apparatus to synthesize viral proteins. Host stress
response mechanisms that suppress translation, therefore, represent a significant obstacle …

Assembly of viral replicase complexes of eukaryotic positive-strand RNA viruses is a
regulated process: multiple viral and host components must be assembled on intracellular …

A functional capsid protein (CP) is essential for host plant infection and insect transmission
of Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) and other monopartite begomoviruses. We have …

Nonenveloped animal viruses must disrupt or perforate a cell membrane during entry.
Recent work with reovirus has shown formation of size‐selective pores in RBC membranes …

Mammalian orthoreoviruses (reoviruses) are prototype members of the Reoviridae family of
nonenveloped viruses. Reoviruses contain ten double-stranded RNA gene segments …

Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites that rely on their hosts for protein synthesis,
genome replication, and viral particle production. As such, they have evolved mechanisms …
