Viruses Go Lytic or Latent, Based on Viral DNA Mechanics September 5, 2018. When viral DNA is more “liquidy,” it is more easily injected into host cells—so easily, in fact, that multiple ...
The lytic and lysogenic cycles are the two main phases of a virus’ infective lifecycle and route to replication. The lytic cycle, or virulent infection, involves a virus taking control of a host cell ...
Lytic JC virus renal infection has been reported in the literature in only three patients: one had a renal carcinoma and two were immunocompromised, one ...
Microscopy deep learning predicts virus infections and reveals mechanics of lytic-infected cells. iScience , 2021; 24 (6): 102543 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2021.102543 Cite This Page : ...
Discovery reveals mechanism that turns herpes virus on and off Date: November 14, 2019 Source: Cornell University Summary: New research has identified a new mechanism that plays a role in ...
Viruses that replicate using only the lytic cycle are known as virulent bacteriophages, and viruses that replicate using both lysogenic and lytic cycles are known as temperate bacteriophages.
Additionally, phosphomimetic mutation at tyrosine in HSV-2 UL13 downregulated viral replication and pathogenicity in the brain of mice injected with HSV-2, during the active lytic phase (when new ...
A novel curcumin derivative, C210, activates the Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) lytic cycle without producing infectious virions by disrupting HSP90. This discovery opens avenues for safer EBV ...
The finding that marine environments with high levels of host microbes have fewer viruses per host than when host abundance is low challenges a theory on the relative roles of lysogenic and lytic ...
After lytic replication is induced, the ERBB1:ERBB2 heterodimer is possibly disrupted, resulting in ERBB2 interacting with another ERBB, likely ERBB3, to promote lytic replication. “Understanding the ...
