Synthesis in vitro of a seven amino acid peptide encoded in the leader RNA of Rous sarcoma virus.

Only registered users can translate articles

Sequences of avian retroviral RNAs suggest that short open reading frames in the putatively untranslated leader sequences might direct the synthesis of small peptides. Previous analyses indicate that translation of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) RNA in vitro faithfully reflects translation of the viral

Immunocytochemical localization of RasHa p21 in normal and neoplastic cells in fixed tissue sections from Harvey sarcoma virus-infected mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

An affinity purified sheep IgG antibody to a 20 amino acid peptide from the carboxyterminal end of RasHa p21 was used to localize RasHa p21 on fixed tissue sections of Harvey sarcoma (HaSV) virus-infected mice by the avidin-biotin-peroxidase immunocytochemical technique. Control sera included immune

Detection of serum antibodies to a Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus-specific peptide.

Only registered users can translate articles

Kaposi's sarcoma (KS)-associated herpesvirus/human herpesvirus type 8 (KSHV/HHV-8) may play an etiologic role in the pathogenesis of KS. In an attempt to assess KSHV/HHV-8 infection, an ELISA was developed using an 18-amino acid peptide from a putative minor capsid protein of KSHV/HHV-8 conjugated

Identification of a ribosome-binding site for a leader peptide encoded by Rous sarcoma virus RNA.

Only registered users can translate articles

A new method for identifying ribosome-binding sites was developed to determine whether AUG codons in the 5'-terminal RNA sequence of Rous sarcoma virus were used to initiate protein synthesis. We found that when translation is inhibited, the major ribosome-binding site on Rous sarcoma virus RNA is

A mutation in the short 5'-proximal open reading frame on Rous sarcoma virus RNA alters virus production.

Only registered users can translate articles

The 5'-proximal open reading frame on Rous sarcoma virus RNA encodes a seven-amino-acid peptide and is conserved in all avian sarcoma-leukosis retroviruses. Ribosome-binding site analysis in intact chick cells showed that the 5'-proximal AUG codon is a strong site for initiation of translation in

HIV-1 Tat enhances Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) infectivity.

Only registered users can translate articles

The high frequency of Kaposi sarcoma (KS) in immunodeficiency states, particularly in patients with AIDS, has been attributed to increased replication of KS-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), a necessary cofactor for KS development. However, experimental KSHV infection of endothelial lineage cells that

A fifteen-amino-acid TVB peptide serves as a minimal soluble receptor for subgroup B avian leukosis and sarcoma viruses.

Only registered users can translate articles

The TVB receptor for subgroup B, D, and E avian sarcoma and leukosis viruses (ASLVs) is a tumor necrosis factor receptor-related protein that is most closely related to the TRAIL receptors. Here we show that the major subgroup B viral interaction determinants of TVB are contained within a linear

Characterization of ribosome binding on Rous sarcoma virus RNA in vitro.

Only registered users can translate articles

We determined the sites at which ribosomes form initiation complexes on Rous sarcoma virus RNA in order to determine how initiation of Pr76gag synthesis at the fourth AUG codon from the 5' end of Rous sarcoma virus strain SR-A RNA occurs. Ribosomes bind almost exclusively at the 5'-proximal AUG

Identification, expression, and immunogenicity of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus-encoded small viral capsid antigen.

Only registered users can translate articles

We describe a recombinant antigen for use in serologic tests for antibodies to Kaposi's sarcoma (KS)-associated herpesvirus (KSHV). The cDNA for a small viral capsid antigen (sVCA) was identified by immunoscreening of a library prepared from the BC-1 body cavity lymphoma cell line induced into KSHV

Suppression of soft tissue sarcoma growth by a host defense-like lytic peptide.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Soft tissue sarcoma (STS) is an anatomically and histologically heterogeneous neoplasia that shares a putative mesenchymal cell origin. The treatment with common chemotherapeutics is still unsatisfying because of association with poor response rates. Although evidence is accumulating for

Isolation and characterization of a gene, pmrD, from Salmonella typhimurium that confers resistance to polymyxin when expressed in multiple copies.

Only registered users can translate articles

We have isolated from Salmonella typhimurium a gene, designated pmrD, that confers resistance to the membrane-damaging drug, polymyxin B when expressed from the medium-copy-number plasmid pHSG576. The gene maps to 46 min on the standard genetic map, near the menB gene, and is therefore distinct from

Embigin, a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily expressed in embryonic cells, enhances cell-substratum adhesion.

Only registered users can translate articles

Embigin is a glycoprotein belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily, and is preferentially expressed before 10 days of gestation during mouse embryogenesis. To study its function, an embigin cDNA under the control of beta-actin promoter and Rous sarcoma virus enhancer was introduced into L cells.

NMR structures of anti-HIV D-peptides derived from the N-terminus of viral chemokine vMIP-II.

Only registered users can translate articles

The viral macrophage inflammatory protein-II (vMIP-II) encoded by Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus has unique biological activities in that it blocks the cell entry by several different human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) strains via chemokine receptors including CXCR4 and CCR5. In

Fusion of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 tat protein transduction domain to thymidine kinase increases bystander effect and induces enhanced tumor killing in vivo.

Only registered users can translate articles

The clinical success of suicide gene therapy using herpes simplex virus type 1 thymidine kinase (TK) is largely dependent on the capacity of this enzyme to effectively induce the death of bystander cells. We have shown that fusion of TK to an 11-amino acid peptide from the basic domain of the human

The P55 protein affected by v-mos expression is vimentin.

Only registered users can translate articles

Rabbit antiserum prepared against a cyclic 19-amino-acid peptide predicted from the sequence of the viral mos gene (v-mos) of Moloney murine sarcoma virus not only recognized v-mos gene products but also specifically detected a 55,000-Mr polypeptide expressed in a variety of cells that grow on solid
