Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative analysis of the ability of the polymerase complexes of influenza viruses type A, B and C to assemble into functional RNPs that allow expression and replication of heterotypic model RNA templates in vivo.

TL;DR: The results suggest that less strict type-specific interactions are involved for the polymerase complex of influenza A compared with influenza B or C viruses.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Influenza A Virus NS1 Protein Interacts with the Nucleoprotein of Viral Ribonucleoprotein Complexes

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the NS1 protein interacts specifically with NP and not the polymerase subunits, and the region of NS1 that binds NP was mapped to the RNA-binding domain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influenza A virus progeny vRNP trafficking in live infected cells studied with the virus-encoded fluorescently tagged PB2 protein.

TL;DR: The split-GFP based virus enabled us to obtain a live-cell based confirmation for the model of vRNP trafficking which assumes accumulation of v RNP in recycling endosomes through a direct interaction of PB2 with Rab11, and subsequent transport across the cytoplasm involving microtubules and actin filaments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influenza A Virus Neuraminidase Enhances Meningococcal Adhesion to Epithelial Cells through Interaction with Sialic Acid-Containing Meningococcal Capsules

TL;DR: Findings suggest that a direct interaction between the NA of IAV and the capsule of N. meningitidis enhances bacterial adhesion to cultured epithelial cells, most likely through cleavage of capsular sialic acid-containing polysaccharides.
