Enteroviruses have now been shown to persist in cell cultures and in vivo by a novel
mechanism involving the deletion of varying amounts of the 5′ terminal genomic region …

The recent revolution in imaging techniques and results from RNA footprinting in situ reveal
how the bacteriophage MS2 genome regulates both particle assembly and genome release …

Enteroviruses are non-enveloped positive-sense RNA viruses that cause diverse diseases
in humans. Their rapid multiplication depends on remodeling of cytoplasmic membranes for …

Abstract Coxsackievirus A6 (CV-A6) has recently overtaken enterovirus A71 and CV-A16 as
the primary causative agent of hand, foot, and mouth disease worldwide. Virions of CV-A6 …

Introduction Hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) poses a great threat to young children in
the Asia-Pacific region. HFMD is usually caused by enterovirus A, and infection with …

Rhinoviruses (RVs) are the main cause of recurrent infections with rather mild symptoms
characteristic of the common cold. Nevertheless, RVs give rise to enormous numbers of …

With the advancements in instrumentation, image processing algorithms, and computational
capabilities, single-particle electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM) has achieved nearly atomic …

The kinetics of coxsackievirus serotype B5 (CVB5) inactivation with free chlorine is
characterized over a range of pH and temperature relevant to drinking water treatment with …

Asymmetric structural elements are typically not readily visualized in icosahedral viruses that
have other obvious symmetrical features and most asymmetry has gone unresolved for …

Many single-stranded, positive-sense RNA viruses regulate assembly of their infectious
virions by forming multiple, cognate coat protein (CP)-genome contacts at sites termed …
