  1. 1. Viperin vs. tick-borne encephalitis virus : mechanism of a potent antiviral protein

    Författare :Kirstin Vonderstein; Anna Överby Wernstedt; Magnus Evander; Sonja Best; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tick-borne encephalitis virus; TBEV; type-I interferon; IFN; Interferon-stimulated gene; ISG; viperin; GBF1; CIAO1; antiviral protein; genome replication; particle release; capsid;

    Sammanfattning : Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is a very important virus medically, causing mild or severe encephalitis often with long-lasting sequelae. Treatment of tick-borne encephalitis is limited to supportive care, and antiviral drugs are much needed.The type-I interferon (IFN) system is the first line of host defense against many viruses.

  2. 2. The role of the type I interferons and viperin during neurotropic flavivirus infection

    Författare :Richard Lindqvist; Anna Överby Wernstedt; Daniel Ruzek; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TBEV; Flavivirus; Interferon; Neurotropic; Viperin;

    Sammanfattning : Flaviviruses are globally distributed pathogens that cause millions of human infections annually. One of the most detrimental outcomes of flavivirus infection is encephalitis, which is caused by neurotropic flaviviruses such as West Nile virus (WNV), Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), and Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV).

  3. 3. Roles of mammalian Scribble in polarity signaling, virus offense and cell-fate determination

    Författare :Michael Wigerius; Magnus Johansson; Lawrence Banks; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cell polarity; scribble; tbev; RhoGTPase; jak-stat; mapk; neurite outgrowth; influenza a virus; Biochemistry; Biokemi; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Mammalian Scribble is a target for proteins encoded by human papilloma virus, retro- and flaviviruses. Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is a flavivirus that have evolved distinct strategies to escape antiviral responses. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Identification of protease inhibitors against Flaviviruses and Coronaviruses

    Författare :Dario Akaberi; Åke Lundkvist; Johan Lennerstrand; Josef D. Järhult; Ujjwal Neogi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Antiviral research; protease inhibitors; flaviviruses; coronaviruses; ZIKV; TBEV; SARS-CoV-2;

    Sammanfattning : Vector-borne flaviviruses and coronaviruses of zoonotic origins are important human pathogens and represent a serious threat to public health worldwide. Flaviviruses can be found on all continents, apart from Antarctica, where they are transmitted by arthropod vectors causing millions of infections every year. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Exploration of analytical methods to study motif-mediated host-virus protein-protein interactions

    Författare :Eszter Kassa; Ylva Ivarsson; Gilles Travé; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein-protein interaction; short linear motif; affinity purification-mass spectrometry; virus; SARS-CoV-2; TBEV; Analytical Chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Proteins are responsible for countless processes in living creatures, but most often they do not perform these tasks alone. Rather, they engage in interactions with other proteins, creating whole protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. LÄS MER
