In vitro reassembly of shell-like particles from disrupted polyoma virus.
When purified polyoma virus is exposed to 0.01 M dithiothreitol in the presence of 0.2 M Na(2)CO(3)-NaHCO(3) (pH 10.6) at 0-4 degrees C, the capsids are rapidly disrupted to protein subunits of capsomere size, as judged by density gradient centrifugation, sedimentation equilibrium centrifugation, and electron microscopy. Hemagglutination activity and infectivity of disrupted virus are reduced t...

Singlet microtubules and structures that have the morphology and dimensions of the basal body cartwheel complex self-assemble in extracts derived from Tetrahymena basal bodies.
متن کاملNovel High-throughput Approach for Purification of Infectious Virions
Viruses are extensively studied as pathogens and exploited as molecular tools and therapeutic agents. Existing methods to purify viruses such as gradient ultracentrifugation or chromatography have limitations, for example demand for technical expertise or specialized equipment, high time consumption, and restricted capacity. Our laboratory explores mutations in oncolytic reovirus that could imp...
متن کاملDissociation of polyoma virus by the chelation of calcium ions found associated with purified virions.
Analysis of polyoma virions by X-ray fluorometry demonstrated that calcium (Ca2+) was associated with the purified virion. Treatment of purified virions with ethyleneglycol-bis-N,N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA), which chelates Ca2+, and the reducing agent dithiothreitol caused the virions to dissociate. Electron microscopy revealed that the virions were dissociated to the capsomere level. Incubation...
متن کاملGlutathione is required for efficient production of infectious picornavirus virions.
Glutathione is an intracellular reducing agent that helps maintain the redox potential of the cell and is important for immune function. The drug L-buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) selectively inhibits glutathione synthesis. Glutathione has been reported to block replication of HIV, HSV-1, and influenza virus, whereas cells treated with BSO exhibit increased replication of Sendai virus. Pre-treatme...
