Journal ArticleDOI

The interaction of cytoplasmic RNA viruses with the nucleus.

TL;DR: For a small RNA virus that strictly replicates in the cytoplasm, a portion of its life cycle does include interaction with the host cell nucleus and recent studies indicate that the viral protease-polymerase precursor 3CD can enter nucleus in poliovirus-infected cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Slo1 Caveolin-binding Motif, a Mechanism of Caveolin-1-Slo1 Interaction Regulating Slo1 Surface Expression

TL;DR: The results suggest 1007YNMLCFGIY1015 possible participation in Slo1 plasmalemmal targeting and demonstrate its role as a main mechanism for caveolin-1 association withSlo1 potentially serving a dual role: (i) maintaining channels in intracellular compartments downsizing their surface expression and/or (ii) serving as anchor of plasma membrane resident channels to caveolin -1-rich membranes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antimicrobial Peptides: Insights into Membrane Permeabilization, Lipopolysaccharide Fragmentation and Application in Plant Disease Control.

TL;DR: VG16KRKP, a non-toxic and non-hemolytic analogue of VG16, shows significant antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative E. coli and plant pathogens X. oryzae and X. campestris, as well as against human fungal pathogens C. albicans and C. grubii.
Journal ArticleDOI

Precursor of the Inactive 2S Seed Storage Protein from the Indian Mustard Brassica juncea Is a Novel Trypsin Inhibitor CHARACTERIZATION, POST-TRANSLATIONAL PROCESSING STUDIES, AND TRANSGENIC EXPRESSION TO DEVELOP INSECT-RESISTANT PLANTS

TL;DR: A novel trypsin inhibitor from Indian mustard Brassica juncea that is unique in being the precursor of a 2S seed storage protein that can be used in transforming seed crops for protection to their vegetative parts and early seed stages, when insect damage is maximal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Shutoff of RNA Polymerase II Transcription by Poliovirus Involves 3C Protease-Mediated Cleavage of the TATA-Binding Protein at an Alternative Site: Incomplete Shutoff of Transcription Interferes with Efficient Viral Replication

TL;DR: Evidence is presented that suggests that the transcriptional inactivation of TBP by 3Cpro involves cleavage at the glutamine 104-serine 105 (Q104-S105) site of T BP and not at the Q18-G19 site as previously thought.
