Bottom-up self-assembly techniques are a powerful method of building nanoscale structures in an energy efficient and cost effective manner. The use of biological templates, such as proteins, takes advantage of the monodispersity and precision of naturally evolved systems to produce highly organized assemblies of small molecules and nanoparticles. Here we describe a method whereby arginine residues on a viral coat protein (Tobacco Mosaic Virus) are targeted by bis(p-sulfonatophenyl)phenylphosphine (BSPP)-passivated gold nanoparticles with high specificity to create 22 nm rings.

This study investigates the application of levan- produced from Paenibacillus polymyxa SG09-12 as an antiviral agent against cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). A high-purity microbial levan was produced and purified using diafiltration. The chemical composition, structure, and functional groups of the levan were characterised using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).

The prompt and efficient identification of targeted inhibitors against unscrupulous pathogenic viruses holds promise for preventing epidemic disease outbreaks. Herein, a comprehensive multichannel screening method (multiple docking cross-validation, molecular dynamics simulation, and density functional theory calculation) integrated with bioactivity identification is rationally established using sugar-based natural ligand libraries to target tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) capsid proteins. Encouragingly, compounds A0 (K = 0.

In this paper, a series of oxadiazole/thidiazole containing coumarin derivative derivatives were designed, synthesized and characterized using NMR and HRMS. The evaluation of antiviral activity revealed that some of the synthesized compounds exhibited good in vivo antiviral efficacy against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). Notably, compounds H6 and Y5 demonstrated exceptional therapeutic and protective effects against TMV, with EC values of 180.

Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is a major threat to crops, making the discovery of green biopesticides essential. Herein, we present two active ingredients derived from the medicinal plant , findlayine A () and dendrofindline B (), as promising precursor compounds for TMV inhibitors. Among them, inhibited TMV infestation on tobacco leaves at a rate of 38.
