  1. 1. NA transmembrane domain : Amphiphilic drift to accommodate two functions

    Författare :Johan Nordholm; Robert Daniels; Ervin Fodor; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; influenza; IAV; neuraminidase; NA; transmembrane domain; TMD; secretory protein; ER-targeting sequence; ER-targeting sequence coding region; protein regulation; NS1; GALLEX; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Neuraminidase (NA) is one of two major antigens on the surface of influenza A viruses. It is comprised of a single N-terminal transmembrane domain (TMD), a stalk domain, and a C-terminal enzymatic head domain that cleaves sialic acid, most notably to release new particles from the host cell surface.

  2. 2. Altering HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein maturation and its effects on viral infectivity

    Författare :Alenka Jejcic; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :HIV-1;

    Sammanfattning : HIV-1 is dependent on its envelope glycoprotein (Env) to initiate infection. Env binds to cellular receptors and mediate the following fusion of the viral envelope with the cell plasma membrane. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Interaction-mediating sequences within class I viral fusion glycoproteins : their roles in viral infection and in applications

    Författare :Simin Zhang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Class I viral fusion glycoproteins facilitate fusion of the viral envelope with cell membranes and entry of the virus into the cell, through extensive short sequence-specific interactions. Regions mediating these interactions include the N-terminal hydrophobic fusion peptide, a pair of extended 4,3-hydrophobic heptad repeats (HRs), a membrane-active membrane proximal external region (MPER), a hydrophobic transmembrane domain and the cytoplasmic tail region.
