Despite all that is known about enteroviruses, a good deal of mystery surrounds the sites of virus replication in the human alimentary tract. Further, the host restrictions that govern cell tropism ...
Similarly, cytoplasmic replication of poxviruses (large ... striking structures involves interplay between the virus and the host cell, the role of both viral and cellular proteins is addressed.
As obligatory intracellular parasites, viruses rely on host-cell functions for most aspects of their replication cycle. This is born out during entry, when most viruses that infect vertebrate and ...
The influenza virus snatches the cap part of the mature host RNA to start viral replication. MTr1-deficient cells or cells treated with MTr1 inhibitors do not lead to IAV replication.
However, the precise mechanism underlying the rapid replication of the virus after it enters human cells has remained unclear. Understanding this process is crucial for future pandemic preparedness.
