Comparison of Quality of Life between Active and Inactive Workers
Introduction: Numerous important factors such as physical and mental condition affect the quality of life Job stress is one of the key factors in decreasing productivity in organizations. Given the positive effects of physical activity on quality of life, this study aimed to compare the quality of life between active and inactive workers (case study). Methods: This study was a cross-sectional ...
متن کاملMembrane fusion mutants of Semliki Forest virus
Previous reports have indicated that the entry of Semliki Forest virus (SFV) into cells depends on a membrane fusion reaction catalyzed by the viral spike glycoproteins and triggered by the low pH prevailing in the endosomal compartment. In this study the in vitro pH-dependent fusion of SFV with nuclease-filled liposomes has been used to select for a new class of virus mutants that have a pH-co...
متن کاملHaemolysis by two alphaviruses: Semliki Forest and Sindbis virus.
Purified preparations of Semliki Forest (SFV) and Sindbis virus haemolyse red blood cells from several species of animals and birds. The optimal haemolysis by SFV was obtained at pH 5.8 with 1-day-old chick erythrocytes incubated at room temperature. Considerable variation in haemolytic activity was observed between different virus preparations purified by different methods. The haemolytic acti...
متن کاملStructure of Semliki Forest virus core protein.
Alphaviruses are enveloped, insect-borne viruses, which contains a positive-sense RNA genome. The protein capsid is surrounded by a lipid membrane, which is penetrated by glycoprotein spikes. The structure of the Sindbis virus (SINV) (the type virus) core protein (SCP) was previously determined and found to have a chymotrypsin-like structure. SCP is a serine proteinase which cleaves itself from...
متن کاملPathogenesis of Semliki Forest virus encephalitis.
This article provides a review of the pathogenesis of Semliki Forest virus (SFV) encephalitis. In mice, outcome of infection varies according to age of the mouse and strain of the virus and can include acute encephalitis, subacute demyelinating meningoencephalomyelitis, and persistent subclinical central nervous system (CNS) infection. All strains of virus are virulent in mice infected <12 days...
