HCV NS5A基因表达及其在血清学检测中的应用评估

人丙型肝炎病毒 (ＨＣＶ)感染可引起丙型肝炎、肝硬化和肝细胞癌[1] 。丙型肝炎病毒是单股正链ＲＮＡ病毒 ,基因组约长 9.5ｋｂ ,仅有一个开放阅读框 ,编码一个大的聚蛋白前体 ,由宿主蛋白酶和病毒编码的蛋白酶加工成多个成熟蛋白。非结构蛋白ＮＳ5Ａ分子量为 56ｋＤ/ 58ｋＤ。目前对ＮＳ5Ａ蛋白的功能尚不清楚 ,ＮＳ5Ａ蛋白可降低干扰素治疗效果[2 ] ;ＮＳ5Ａ蛋白含核定位序列 ,因此人们推测它在ＨＣＶＲＮＡ复制过程中可能起一定的作用[3～ 4 ] 。本研究在大肠杆菌中表达全长ＮＳ5Ａ蛋白 ,提纯后ＮＳ5Ａ蛋白能与大多数丙肝阳性血清起强烈…     

丙型肝炎病毒基因组的翻译及其产物的加工

丙型肝炎病毒（ＨＣＶ）是一种单正链ＲＮＡ病毒,其５’非编码区（５’ＮＣＲ）是决定病毒蛋白表达的关键区。基因突变与报道基因表达技术研究表明５’ＮＣＲ有一内部核糖体进入位点（ＩＲＥＳ）。类似于微小ＲＮＡ病毒属。ＨＣＶＲＮＡ翻译成为一条多蛋白分子,对蛋白酶的裂解加工后形成１０余种结构和非结构蛋白。研究ＨＣＶＲＮＡ的翻译及产物加工,对ＨＣＶ及其抗原表达载体有重要意义。

丙型肝炎病毒丝氨酸蛋白酶的研究进展

丙型肝炎病毒（ＨＣＶ）非结构３区（ＮＳ３）编码的丝氨酸蛋白酶是ＨＣＶ复制过程中的重要蛋白酶,负责对ＮＳ３、ＮＳ４及ＮＳ５进行加工。ＮＳ４ａ是ＨＣＶ丝氨酸蛋白酶作用的辅因子,并具有多种活性。ＨＣＶ丝氨酸蛋白酶有相对特异的底物,其活性不能被一般的丝氨酸蛋白抑制剂所抑制。丝氨酸蛋白酶是ＨＣＶ药物设计的靶目标之一。对其结构与功能的研究有着重要意义。

Recent advances in the study of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus replication and pathogenesis

It has now been over twenty years since a novel herpesviral genome was identified in Kaposi's sarcoma biopsies. Since then, the cumulative research effort by molecular biologists, virologists, clinicians, and epidemiologists alike has led to the extensive characterization of this tumor virus, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus(KSHV; also known as human herpesvirus 8(HHV-8)), and its associated diseases. Here we review the current knowledge of KSHV biology and pathogenesis, with a particular emphasis on new and exciting advances in the field of epigenetics. We also discuss the development and practicality of various cell culture and animal model systems to study KSHV replication and pathogenesis.     

A Unique Protease Cleavage Site Predicted in the Spike Protein of the Novel Pneumonia Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Potentially Related to Viral Transmissibility

正Dear Editor,In December 2019, a novel human coronavirus caused an epidemic of severe pneumonia(Coronavirus Disease 2019,COVID-19) in Wuhan, Hubei, China(Wu et al. 2020; Zhu et al. 2020). So far, this virus has spread to all areas of China and even to other countries. The epidemic has caused 67,102 confirmed infections with 1526 fatal cases     

Curcuminoids as inhibitors of thioredoxin reductase: A receptor based pharmacophore study with distance mapping of the active site

Curcumin is the yellow pigment of turmeric that interacts irreversibly forming an adduct with thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), an enzyme responsible for redox control of cell and defence against oxidative stress. Docking at both the active sites of TrxR was performed to compare the potency of three naturally occurring curcuminoids, namely curcumin, demethoxy curcumin and bis-demethoxy curcumin. Results show that active sites of TrxR occur at the junction of E and F chains. Volume and area of both cavities is predicted. It has been concluded by distance mapping of the most active conformations that Se atom of catalytic residue SeCYS498, is at a distance of 3.56 from C13 of demethoxy curcumin at the E chain active site, whereas C13 carbon atom forms adduct with Se atom of SeCys 498. We report that at least one methoxy group in curcuminoids is necessary for interation with catalytic residues of thioredoxin. Pharmacophore of both active sites of the TrxR receptor for curcumin and demethoxy curcumin molecules has been drawn and proposed for design and synthesis of most probable potent antiproliferative synthetic drugs.     

The structure, reproduction and taxonomy of Vidalia and Osmundaria (Rhodophyta, Rhodomelaceae)

Comprises species occurring mostly in subtidal habitats in tropical, subtropical and warm-temperate areas of the world. An analysis of the type species, V. spiralis (Sonder) Lamouroux ex J. Agardh, a species from Australia, establishes basic characters for distinguishing species in the genus. These characters are (1) branching patterns of thalli, (2) flat blades that may be spiralled on their axis, (3) width of the blade, (4) primary or secondary derivation of sterile and fertile branchlets and (5) position of sterile and fertile branchlets on the thalli. Application of the latter two characters provides an important basic method for separation of species into three major groups. Osmundaria , a genus known only in southern Australia, was studied in relation to Vidalia , and its separation from the Vidalia assemblage is not accepted. Species of Vidalia therefore are transferred to the older genus name, Osmundaria. Two new species, Osmundaria papenfussii and Osmundaria oliveae are described from Natal. Confusion in the usage of the epithet, Vidalia fimbriala Brown ex Turner has been clarified, and Vidalia gregaria Falkenberg, described as an epiphyte on Osmundaria pro/ifera Lamouroux, is revealed to be young branches of the host, Osmundaria prolifera.     

New or rare chromosome counts in Artemisia L. (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) and related genera from Kazakhstan

Fifteen chromosome counts of six Artemisia taxa and one species of each of the genera Brachanthemum, Hippolytia, Kaschgaria, Lepidolopsis and Turaniphytum are reported from Kazakhstan. Three of them are new reports, two are not consistent with previous counts and the remainder are confirmations of very scarce (one to four) earlier records. All the populations studied have the same basic chromosome number, x = 9, with ploidy levels ranging from 2x to 6x. Some correlations between ploidy level, morphological characters and distribution are noted.
