RNA packaging, on the other hand, was indiscriminate as all four viral Keywords: RNAs were detectable in each progeny population. Consistent with the trans-encapsidation phenotype, Flock House virus fluorescence in situ hybridization of viral RNA revealed that the genomes of the two viruses co-localized Nodamura virus throughout the cytoplasm.

Virus Particle Structures
Virus Particle Structures Virus Particle Structures Palmenberg, A.C. and Sgro, J.-Y. COLOR PLATE LEGENDS These color plates depict the relative sizes and comparative virion structures of multiple types of viruses. The renderings are based on data from published atomic coordinates as determined by X-ray crystallography. The international online repository for 3D coordinates is the Protein Databank (www.rcsb.org/pdb/), maintained by the Research Collaboratory for Structural Bioinformatics (RCSB). The VIPER web site (mmtsb.scripps.edu/viper), maintains a parallel collection of PDB coordinates for icosahedral viruses and additionally offers a version of each data file permuted into the same relative 3D orientation (Reddy, V., Natarajan, P., Okerberg, B., Li, K., Damodaran, K., Morton, R., Brooks, C. and Johnson, J. (2001). J. Virol., 75, 11943-11947). VIPER also contains an excellent repository of instructional materials pertaining to icosahedral symmetry and viral structures. All images presented here, except for the filamentous viruses, used the standard VIPER orientation along the icosahedral 2-fold axis. With the exception of Plate 3 as described below, these images were generated from their atomic coordinates using a novel radial depth-cue colorization technique and the program Rasmol (Sayle, R.A., Milner-White, E.J. (1995). RASMOL: biomolecular graphics for all. Trends Biochem Sci., 20, 374-376). First, the Temperature Factor column for every atom in a PDB coordinate file was edited to record a measure of the radial distance from the virion center. The files were rendered using the Rasmol spacefill menu, with specular and shadow options according to the Van de Waals radius of each atom. -

Energetics of Quasiequivalence: Computational Analysis of Protein-Protein Interactions in Icosahedral Viruses
546 Biophysical Journal Volume 74 January 1998 546–558 Energetics of Quasiequivalence: Computational Analysis of Protein-Protein Interactions in Icosahedral Viruses Vijay S. Reddy,* Heidi A. Giesing,* Ryan T. Morton,* Abhinav Kumar,* Carol Beth Post,# Charles L. Brooks, III,* and John E. Johnson* *Department of Molecular Biology, The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, California 92037, and #Department of Medicinal Chemistry, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana 47907 USA ABSTRACT Quaternary structure polymorphism found in quasiequivalent virus capsids provides a static framework for studying the dynamics of protein interactions. The same protein subunits are found in different structural environments within these particles, and in some cases, the molecular switching required for the polymorphic quaternary interactions is obvious from high-resolution crystallographic studies. Employing atomic resolution structures, molecular mechanics, and continuum electrostatic methods, we have computed association energies for unique subunit interfaces of three icosahedral viruses, black beetle virus, southern bean virus, and human rhinovirus 14. To quantify the chemical determinants of quasiequivalence, the energetic contributions of individual residues forming quasiequivalent interfaces were calculated and compared. The potential significance of the differences in stabilities at quasiequivalent interfaces was then explored with the combinatorial assembly approach. The analysis shows that the unique association energies computed for each virus -

The lab population and the field samples carried the same viral sequences. We discovered four novel viruses: two positive- sense single-stranded RNA viruses, Pectinophora gossypiella virus 1 (PecgV1, a virus of Iflaviridae) and Pectinophora gossypiella virus 4 (PecgV4, unclassified), and two negative-sense single-stranded RNA viruses, Pectinophora gossypiella virus 2 (PecgV2, a virus of Phasmaviridae) and Pectinophora gossypiella virus 3 (PecgV3, a virus of Phenuiviridae). -

Viral Nanoparticles and Virus-Like Particles: Platforms for Contemporary Vaccine Design Emily M
Advanced Review Viral nanoparticles and virus-like particles: platforms for contemporary vaccine design Emily M. Plummer1,2 and Marianne Manchester2∗ Current vaccines that provide protection against infectious diseases have primarily relied on attenuated or inactivated pathogens. Virus-like particles (VLPs), comprised of capsid proteins that can initiate an immune response but do not include the genetic material required for replication, promote immunogenicity and have been developed and approved as vaccines in some cases. In addition, many of these VLPs can be used as molecular platforms for genetic fusion or chemical attachment of heterologous antigenic epitopes. This approach has been shown to provide protective immunity against the foreign epitopes in many cases. A variety of VLPs and virus-based nanoparticles are being developed for use as vaccines and epitope platforms. These particles have the potential to increase efficacy of current vaccines as well as treat diseases for which no effective vaccines are available. 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

DORONIN AND CYNTHIA HEMENWAY* Department of Biochemistry, North Carolina State University, Raleigh, North Carolina 27695-7622 Received 16 October 1995/Accepted 30 March 1996 Membrane-containing extracts isolated from tobacco plants infected with the plus-strand RNA virus, potato virus X (PVX), supported synthesis of four major, high-molecular-weight PVX RNA products (R1 to R4). Nuclease digestion and hybridization studies indicated that R1 and R2 are a mixture of partially single- stranded replicative intermediates and double-stranded replicative forms. R3 and R4 are double-stranded products containing sequences typical of the two major PVX subgenomic RNAs. The newly synthesized RNAs were demonstrated to have predominantly plus-strand polarity. Synthesis of these products was remarkably stable in the presence of ionic detergents. Potato virus X (PVX), the type member of the Potexvirus tracts were derived from Nicotiana tabacum leaves at 7 days genus, is a flexuous rod-shaped particle containing a single, postinoculation by a procedure similar to that described by genomic RNA of 6.4 kb that is capped and polyadenylated (21, Lurie and Hendrix (15).
