Exploring Ty1 retrotransposon RNA structure within virus-like particles
Ty1, a long terminal repeat retrotransposon of Saccharomyces, is structurally and functionally related to retroviruses. However, a differentiating aspect between these retroelements is the diversity of the replication strategies used by long terminal repeat retrotransposons. To understand the structural organization of cis-acting elements present on Ty1 genomic RNA from the GAG region that cont...
متن کاملDistributions of Virus-Like Particles and Prokaryotes within Microenvironments
Microbial interactions are important for ecosystem function, but occur at the microscale and so are difficult to observe. Previous studies in marine systems have shown significant shifts in microbial community abundance and composition over scales of micrometres to centimetres. This study investigates the microscale abundance distributions of virus-like particles (VLPs) and prokaryotes in the l...
متن کاملIncorporation of tick-borne encephalitis virus replicons into virus-like particles by a packaging cell line.
RNA replicons derived from flavivirus genomes show considerable potential as gene transfer and immunization vectors. A convenient and efficient encapsidation system is an important prerequisite for the practical application of such vectors. In this work, tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) virus replicons and an appropriate packaging cell line were constructed and characterized. A stable CHO cell lin...

متن کاملThe genomic RNA in Ty1 virus-like particles is dimeric.
The yeast retrotransposon Ty1 resembles retroviruses in a number of important respects but also shows several fundamental differences from them. We now report that, as in retroviruses, the genomic RNA in Ty1 virus-like particles is dimeric. The Ty1 dimers also resemble retroviral dimers in that they are stabilized during the proteolytic maturation of the particle. The stabilization of the dimer...
