Vaccinia virus DNA polymerase and ribonucleotide reductase: their role in replication, recombination and drug resistance
DownloadSpring 2010
Despite the eradication of smallpox, poxviruses continue to cause human disease around the world. At the core of poxvirus replication is the efficient and accurate synthesis and repair of the viral genome. The viral DNA polymerase is critical for these processes. Acyclic nucleoside phosphonate...

Poxviruses encode many genes that are orthologs of cellular genes. These orthologs serve many functions, but those that are of most interest are ones that have evolved further and now serve an immune-evasion function. Such genes were likely first acquired by poxviruses through some form of...

Smallpox was eradicated using vaccinia viruses (VACV) as vaccines, including Dryvax, a calf-lymph vaccine derived from the New York City Board of Health (NYCBH) strain, and TianTan, a chicken egg cultured vaccine used exclusively in China. To take advantage of the next generation sequencing...

Using designed zinc finger proteins to inhibit hepatitis B virus transcription in tissue culture
DownloadFall 2012
Upon infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) the result will be either a chronic infection or clearance of the virus. For the chronic carriers of HBV, therapy is primarily limited to nucleoside analogs, which inhibits viral replication and prevents production of progeny virus, however the...

Understanding the function of the JunB transcription factor in anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive, anaplastic large cell lymphoma
DownloadFall 2013
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive, anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALK+ ALCL) is a non-Hodgkin lymphoma thought to arise from an activated T lymphocyte. This lymphoma is characterized by the presence of chromosomal translocations involving the ALK tyrosine kinase, which generate oncogenic...

Vibrio cholerae is a Gram-negative bacterial species that consists of over 200 serogroups with differing pathogenic potential. Only O1 serogroup strains have been associated with the pandemic spread of cholera, a disease characterized by watery diarrhoea that can lead to severe dehydration and...
