Oligomeric structure of a prototype retrovirus glycoprotein.
The structure of the Rous sarcoma virus envelope glycoprotein complex was studied by sedimentation gradient centrifugation analyses of detergent-solubilized wild-type and mutant envelope (env) gene products. These studies show that the envelope glycoprotein forms an oligomer during biosynthesis, which is most likely a trimer, and that this is the form of the complex found in virions. Our result...
متن کاملCryo-electron Microscopy Structure of the Native Prototype Foamy Virus Glycoprotein and Virus Architecture
Foamy viruses (FV) belong to the genus Spumavirus, which forms a distinct lineage in the Retroviridae family. Although the infection in natural hosts and zoonotic transmission to humans is asymptomatic, FVs can replicate well in human cells making it an attractive gene therapy vector candidate. Here we present cryo-electron microscopy and (cryo-)electron tomography ultrastructural data on purif...
متن کاملOligomeric Supersandwich Structure of a Lithium Enamino- Cyclopentadienide
Lithium cyclopentadienides are important reagents for the synthesis of organometallic compounds. In addition they feature an interesting manifold of structural variations in solution and in the crystal [1]. Variable temperature NMR spectroscopy has revealed markedly temperature dependent equilibria between monomeric lithium cyclopentadienides and their respective lithiocene salts [2]. A typical...
متن کاملRetrovirus purification: method that conserves envelope glycoprotein and maximizes infectivity.
A Sepharose 4B chromatographic method for purification of retroviruses is described which was less time consuming, increased purified virus yields, conserved viral glycoprotein, and increased recovery of biological infectivity in comparison with conventional sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation techniques.
متن کاملStructure of Platelet Glycoprotein
The platelet membrane glycoprotein lIb/IlIa complex is a member of a family of a/,8 heterodimers that function as receptors for adhesive proteins. In this report we describe the structure of the human ft subunit GPIIIa deduced from an analysis of 4.0 kb of overlapping cDNA sequences isolated from a human erythroleukemia (HEL) cell cDNA expression library. A continuous open reading frame encodin...
