Convalescent human plasma candidate reference materials protect against Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) challenge in an A129 mouse model

Frank William Charlton

Crimean-Congo Haemorrhagic Fever Virus (CCHFV) is spread by infected ticks or direct contact with blood, tissues and fluids from infected patients or livestock. Infection with CCHFV causes severe haemorrhagic fever in humans which is fatal in up to 83 % of ...

Inhibition of influenza virus activity by the bovine seminal plasma protein PDC-109

Christian Sieben

A number of viruses causing sexually transmissible diseases are transmitted via mammalian seminal plasma. Several components of seminal plasma have been shown to influence those viruses and their physiological impact. To unravel whether components of semin ...

Viral RNA Degradation and Diffusion Act as a Bottleneck for the Influenza A Virus Infection Efficiency

Christian Sieben

After endocytic uptake, influenza viruses transit early endosomal compartments and eventually reach late endosomes. There, the viral glycoprotein hemagglutinin (HA) triggers fusion between endosomal and viral membrane, a critical step that leads to release ...

Force-induced globule-coil transition in laminin binding protein and its role for viral-cell membrane fusion

Giovanni Dietler, Serguei Sekatski, Fabrizio Benedetti, Andrey Mikhaylov, Tatyana Karakouz

The specific interactions of the pairs laminin binding protein (LBP)-purified tick-borne encephalitis viral surface protein E and certain recombinant fragments of this protein, as well as West Nile viral surface protein E and certain recombinant fragments ...

Characterization of glycoprotein E C-End of West Nile virus and evaluation of its interaction force with alpha V beta 3 integrin as putative cellular receptor

Giovanni Dietler, Serguei Sekatski

Recombinant polypeptide containing the 260-466 amino acid sequence of West Nile virus (WNV) strain LEIV-Vlg99-27889-human glycoprotein E (gpE, E260-466) was constructed. Immunochemical similarity between the E260-466 and gpE of WNV was proven by enzyme imm ...

Immunochernical and single molecule force spectroscopy studies of specific interaction between the laminin binding protein and the West Nile virus surface glycoprotein E domain II

Giovanni Dietler, Serguei Sekatski, Mélanie Favre

ELISA and Western blot immunochemical data attest an effective and highly specific interaction of the surface glycoprotein E domain II (DII) of the tick born encephalitis and Dengue viruses with the laminin binding protein (LBP). Based on a highly conserva ...

Physical properties and interactions of biomolecules : an atomic force microscopy study

Mélanie Favre

The aim of this thesis was to explore the statistical physics and the mechanical properties of individual biomolecules, to study their interactions, and to develop new techniques based on atomic force microscopy (AFM). First, we exploit the high resolution ...
