Abstract:
... Viroplasms are cytoplasmic, membraneless structures assembled in rotavirus (RV)-infected cells, which are intricately involved in viral replication. Two virus-encoded, non-structural proteins, NSP2 and NSP5, are the main drivers of viroplasm formation. The structures (as far as is known) and functions of these proteins are described. Recent studies using plasmid-only-based reverse genetics have si ...

Abstract:
... Rotavirus (RV) replication occurs in cytoplasmic membrane-less, electron-dense inclusions termed viroplasms, composed of viral and cellular elements. These inclusions have been shown to colocalize with components of the lipid droplets (LDs), unique organelles that play an essential role in lipid metabolism. Given the robust LDs-viroplasm association, LDs have been proposed to serve as a scaffold f ...
... Rotavirus (RV) replication occurs in cytoplasmic compartments, known as viroplasms, that are composed of viral and cellular proteins. Viroplasm formation requires RV nonstructural proteins NSP2 and NSP5 and cellular lipid droplets (LDs); however, the mechanisms required for viroplasm assembly remain largely unknown. We previously identified two conformationally-distinct forms of NSP2 (dNSP2, vNSP2 ...

Abstract:
... BACKGROUND: Rice black‐streaked dwarf virus (RBSDV) is transmitted by small brown planthopper (Laodelphax striatellus [L. striatellus]) and causes devastating disease in rice. P9‐1 has silencing suppression activity and is the key protein for viroplasm formation in RBSDV‐infected plants and insects; however, its exact function is poorly understood. RESULTS: In this study, the P9‐1 of RBSDV interac ...

Abstract:
... E. coli is an attractive host organism for strong recombinant protein expression. It expresses products either as soluble protein or as inclusion bodies (IB). IBs are insoluble, mostly inactive aggregates. However, recent progress enabled the efficient refolding back into their bioactive structure. Targeted IB production processes have been designed based on their characteristic features such as h ...
inclusionbodies, etc ; Escherichia coli; White spot syndrome virus; proteins; thioredoxins; vaccines; Arctic region; Show all 7 Subjects
Abstract:
... Envelope proteins of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) play an important role in viral entry as well as in triggering host defences. To date, some main envelope proteins such as VP28, VP24 and VP19 have been expressed heterologously and proved effective in WSSV prevention. However, VP62, an envelope protein with hub function as well as better antigenicity, has not been focused on. In an attempt to ...
inclusionbodies, etc ; biosynthesis; hydrophobicity; recombinant proteins; Show all 4 Subjects
Abstract:
... At biosynthetic production of hydrophobic recombinant proteins there is often a problem of their aggregation in so-called inclusion bodies, after which these proteins are difficult to renature. Obtaining such proteins in soluble forms is a formidable obstacle on the way of using them. One of possible solutions for this problem is the creation of fusion constructs with a leading protein. Previously ...

Abstract:
... Aggregation of particular proteins in the form of inclusion bodies or plaques followed by neuronal death is a hallmark of neurodegenerative proteopathies such as primary Parkinsonism, Alzheimer’s disease, Lou Gehrig’s disease, and Huntington’s chorea. Complex polygenic and environmental factors implicated in these proteopathies. Accumulation of proteins in these disorders indicates a substantial d ...
... Neuraminidase (NA) is one of the targets for the development of new antivirals against the influenza virus. The recombinant Escherichia coli cells, namely the strains BL21(DE3)pLysS and ArcticExpress(DE3) were used to produce the influenza virus neuraminidase. Although the different conditions of induction were tested, the accumulation of over-expressed NA in insoluble fraction occurred independen ...

Abstract:
... Chondroitinase ABC I (ChSase ABC I) is a key enzyme of chondroitin sulfate (CS) degradation and widely used for CS detection in the medicine filed. However, the recombinant ChSase ABC I was weakly expressed in Escherichia coli because the forms of it were mostly inclusion bodies. In this study, a signal peptide (pelB) was used for the soluble form expression of ChSase ABC I in E. coli. Then the cu ...

Abstract:
... Step-by-step screening of the main characteristics of refolding buffer is proposed to obtain recombinant antistaphylococcal endolysin LysK containing two catalytic domains, CHAP and amidase-2, in active form from E. coli inclusion bodies. The optimal pH, temperature, redox potential of the refolding buffer, as well as the optimal protein concentration and type of antiaggregation compound were dete ...
... During heterologous protein production with Escherichia coli, the formation of inclusion bodies (IBs) is often a major drawback as these aggregated proteins are usually inactive. However, different strategies for the generation of IBs consisting of catalytically active proteins have recently been described. In this study, the archaeal tetrameric coiled-coil domain of the cell-surface protein tetra ...

Abstract:
... Recombinant proteins expressed as bacterial inclusion bodies (IBs) are now receiving tremendous attention for many diverse applications in the areas of industrial and medical biotechnology. Understanding the structure–function relationship of protein in IBs has recently created new possibilities in developing innovative isolation, solubilization, refolding, and purification processes for high-thro ...
... Coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) is a Pacific salmon species that is commercially farmed in Japan, and is susceptible to erythrocyte inclusion body syndrome (EIBS), which is characterized by anemia, erythrocyte inclusion bodies, and cardiovascular muscle necrosis. At present, no vaccine for this disease is available. Piscine orthoreovirus-2 (PRV-2) is the causative agent of EIBS in Japan, and is ...
... A novel cytorhabdovirus, tentatively named Actinidia virus D (AcVD), was identified from kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis) in China using high‐throughput sequencing technology. The genome of AcVD consists of 13,589 nucleotides and is organized into seven open reading frames (ORFs) in its antisense strand, coding for proteins in the order N‐P‐P3‐M‐G‐P6‐L. The ORFs were flanked by a 3′ leader sequence ...

Abstract:
... Hepatitis B virus core antigen (HBc) has recently been used as carriers to develop recombinant vaccines. However, not virus-like particles (VLPs) but inactive inclusion bodies are often formed for the chimeric proteins when expressed in Escherichia coli. A novel method for in vitro assembly of chimeric HBc-MAGE3 II from inclusion bodies to VLPs was established in this study. The method utilized 2- ...
... The optimization of reproductive parameters in shrimp farming continues to be a challenge for most producing countries. Although the crustacean neuropeptides have been studied extensively in the last two decades, the functions of most of these neuropeptides remained putative. Among them, molt‐inhibiting hormone isoform II (MIH II) has shown an important role in vitellogenesis. In this study, the c ...

Abstract:
... The bacterial cytoplasm, once thought to be a relatively undifferentiated reaction medium, has now been recognized to have extensive microstructure. This microstructure includes bacterial microcompartments, inclusion bodies, granules, and even some membrane-bound vesicles. Several recent papers suggest that bacteria may also organize their cytoplasm using an additional mechanism: phase-separated m ...

Abstract:
... BACKGROUND: Recombinant pyruvate oxidase (pod) is in high demand owing to its broad application in biochemical analysis and low yield from wild microbial strains. Recombinant Escherichia coli harboring pET28a‐pod is an efficient producer of pod, facilitating its production in high yield. Optimizing cultivation using shake flasks is necessary for high‐level soluble pod production. RESULTS: During r ...

Viral inclusion bodies of reovirus have been found in the cytoplasm of the hepatopancreatic cells of redclaw crayfish (Cherax quadricarinatus). In the past, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) designed from across other hosts was attempted to detect reovirus in redclaw crayfish but no speci ...
