Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of Early Steps in the Poliovirus Infection Process: Receptor-Decorated Liposomes Induce Conversion of the Virus to Membrane-Anchored Entry-Intermediate Particles

TL;DR: The generation of a receptor-decorated liposome system, comprising nickel-chelating nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) liposomes and His-tagged poliovirus receptor, and its use in characterizing the early events in poliov virus infection is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

A plate-based high-throughput assay for virus stability and vaccine formulation.

TL;DR: This work presents a plate-based assay for virus measuring virus stability that facilitates the dissection of virus uncoating and a fast and efficient high-throughput method to optimise vaccine formulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Capsid protein VP4 of human rhinovirus induces membrane permeability by the formation of a size-selective multimeric pore.

TL;DR: The recombinant C-terminal histidine-tagged human rhinovirus VP4 is produced and shown it can induce membrane permeability in liposome model membranes and provide a model system which will facilitate exploration of VP4 as a novel antiviral target for the picornavirus family.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of hepatitis C virus p7 membrane channels in a liposome-based assay system.

TL;DR: This system provides the first convenient in vitro assay for exploiting p7 as a therapeutic target and demonstrates that activity is due to the formation of a size-selective pore rather than non-specific disruption of liposomes and that activity can be blocked by amantadine and several other compounds.
