Rotavirus genome replication and morphogenesis: role of the viroplasm.
The rotaviruses, members of the family Reoviridae, are icosahedral triple-layered viruses with genomes consisting of 11 segments of double-stranded (ds)RNA. A characteristic feature of rotavirus-infected cells is the formation of large cytoplasmic inclusion bodies, termed viroplasms. These dynamic and highly organized structures serve as viral factories that direct the packaging and replication...
متن کاملUltrastructural Study of Rotavirus Replication and Localization of the Intermediate Capsid Protein VP6
Rotavirus, a triple-layered non-enveloped member of the Reoviridae family, obtained a transient membrane envelope when newly synthesized subviral particles bud into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). As rotavirus particles mature, they lose their transient membrane and obtain outer layer. It is mostly believed that only double layered particles bud into the ER. The present study describes that the...
متن کاملVaricella Zoster Virus (VZV) Origin-Dependent Plasmid Replication in the Presence of the Four Overlapping Cosmids Comprising the Complete Genome of VZV
The Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV) genome contains both cis-acting and trans-acting elements, which are important in viral DNA replication. The cis-acting elements consist of two copies of oriS, and the trans-acting elements are those genes whose products are required for virus DNA replication. It has been shown that each of the seven genes required for ori-dependent DNA synthesis of Herpes Simpl...
متن کاملRotavirus VP2 core shell regions critical for viral polymerase activation.
The innermost VP2 core shell of the triple-layered, icosahedral rotavirus particle surrounds the viral genome and RNA processing enzymes, including the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (VP1). In addition to anchoring VP1 within the core, VP2 is also an essential cofactor that triggers the polymerase to initiate double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) synthesis using packaged plus-strand RNA templates. The VP2 ...
متن کاملRotavirus Disrupts Calcium Homeostasis by NSP4 Viroporin Activity
Many viruses alter intracellular calcium homeostasis. The rotavirus nonstructural protein 4 (NSP4), an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) transmembrane glycoprotein, increases intracellular levels of cytoplasmic Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)]cyto) through a phospholipase C-independent pathway, which is required for virus replication and morphogenesis. However, the NSP4 domain and mechanism that increases [Ca(2+)]cyt...
