Vaccinia virus I7L core protein proteinase

Creator:: Byrd, Chelsea M.
Abstract:: Vaccinia virus (VV) is a large double-stranded DNA virus that is a prototypic member of the orthopoxvirus family. Previous works has showed that three of the major structural proteins found within the mature VV virion core 4a, 4b, and 25K are produced from higher molecular weight precursors at late times...

Investigation of the roles of viral proteinases in the vaccinia virus life cycle

Creator:: Page, Jessica M.
Abstract:: An inducible, mutant virus, designated vvtetO:I7L/G1L, was used to study the morphogenic proteolysis step of the vaccinia virus life cycle. The vvtetO:I7L/G1L controlled the expression of two genes, I7L, a cysteine proteinase, and G1L, a putative metalloproteinase. These proteins are involved in the maturation of viral core proteins, p4a, p4b,...

Creation of an efficient protein expression and secretion system in the gram-positive bacterial vector, Streptococcus gordonii

Creator:: Myscofski, Dawn M.
Abstract:: Streptococcus gordonii (S. gordonii) is being developed as a Gram-positive expression vector for the expression of heterologous proteins. This bacterial expression system takes advantage of the natural pathway of protein export and anchoring on the surface of the bacterium. The expression of heterologous proteins relies on the homologous recombination of...

Identification of intracellular trafficking signals contained within the vaccinia virus F13L protein

Creator:: Honeychurch, Kady M.
Abstract:: The F13L protein is the major envelope antigen of vaccinia virus, the prototypic member of the Orthopoxvirus genus. F13L is 372 residues in length and is essential for the formation of wrapped forms of virus. F13L contains a number of potential functional domains including a palmitylation site, a phospholipase domain...

The rpsL gene and streptomycin resistance in Streptococcus gordonii and Streptococcus pyogenes

Creator:: Vidyasanker, Radhika
Abstract:: Streptomycin resistance in both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria is usually caused by a single mutation in the rpsL gene. The rpsL gene encodes the S12 protein of the ribosomal complex. The rpsL genes of various bacteria have consensus regions in their sequences. Primers were designed from these consensus pockets and...

Molecular genetic analysis of vaccinia virus genes which confer resistance to alpha-amanitin

Creator:: Tamin, Azaibi
Abstract:: Several laboratories have shown that the VV replication cycle is dependent on the host cell nucleus. The basic biological observation is that if the host cell nucleus is physically removed by cytochalasin B-mediated enucleation, functionally inactivated by UV-irradiation, or selectively blocked with a-amanitin, the results are the same: W is...

Evaluation of a potential Chylamydia psittaci vaccine candidate using recombinant vaccinia virus encoding the infection-specific C. psittaci GPIC proteins IncA and TroA

Creator:: Werth, Eric P.
Abstract:: Members of the family Chlamydiae cause a wide range of diseases. Chlamydia trachomatis and C. pneumoniae are most commonly associated with human disease. C. psittaci and C. pecorum are largely animal pathogens, although C. psittaci can cause pneumonia in the elderly and immunocompromised. A vaccine against these pathogens is desirable,...

Characterization of vaccinia virus A12L protein : its proteolysis and functional analyses in virus replication

Creator:: Yang, Su Jung
Abstract:: In order to produce infectious virus progeny, vaccinia virus (VV) undergoes morphogenic proteolysis to regulate the structural rearrangements of virus particles. Several of the major structural precursor proteins of VV are cleaved at a conserved Ala-Gly-X (where X is any amino acid) motif by the VV I7L core protein proteinase...

Structure-function analysis of the vaccinia virus I7L proteinase

Creator:: Moerdyk, Megan J.
Abstract:: Vaccinia virus is the prototypic member of the Orthopoxvirus genus. It undergoes a complex replication process where a key step in the transition from immature virion to intracellular mature virion is the cleavage of the major core protein precursors. The product of the I7L open reading frame (ORF) is a...
