Four column packings for size-exclusion high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) of proteins with particle sizes from 3 to 13 micron were compared, using 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulphate in the solvent. Their suitability for the purification of hydrophobic membrane proteins was studied with Sendai virus proteins as a model. The calibration curves of the two 13-micron column packings were linear up to high molecular weights. In contrast to this, large proteins (greater than 100-150 kD) were eluted later than expected from the 3- and 6-micron packings. Peak capacities for proteins larger than 20 kD ranged from 4.7 to 5.5. Therefore, purification of complex mixtures of membrane proteins will often require rechromatography by a different mode of HPLC. Non-ionic detergents are suitable for further ion-exchange chromatography. The effect of addition of 0.1% of five non-ionic detergents (three gluco-methylalkanamide detergents, octylglucoside, and decyl-polyethyleneglycol-300) to the solvent was investigated and decyl-polyethyleneglycol-300 was found to be most suitable. Size-exclusion HPLC with this detergent resulted in the separation of micelles of three different sizes, of which the larger two contained exclusively the Sendai virus F protein.

Enveloped viruses have caused the majority of epidemics and pandemics over the past decade. Direct sensing of virus particles (virions) holds great potential for the functional analysis of enveloped viruses. Here, we explore a series of viral membrane-targeting amphipathic helical (AH) peptide-based molecular probes for the assessment of infectious titers of the human coronavirus 229E virus (HCoV-229E).

Future pandemic threats may be caused by novel coronaviruses and influenza A viruses. Here we show that when directly added to a cell culture, 12mer guanine RNA (G12) and its phosphorothioate-linked derivatives (G12(S)), rapidly entered cytoplasm and suppressed the propagation of human coronaviruses and influenza A viruses to between 1/100 and nearly 1/1000 of normal virus infectivity without cellular toxicity and induction of innate immunity. Moreover, G12(S) alleviated the weight loss caused by coronavirus infection in mice.

The innate immune response is the first line of defense for the host against viral infections. Targeted degradation of pathogenic microorganisms through autophagy, in conjunction with pattern recognition receptors synergistically inducing the production of interferon (IFN), constitutes an important pathway for the body to resist viral infections. Rubicon, a Run domain Beclin 1-interacting and cysteine-rich domain protein, has an inhibitory effect on autophagy and IFN production.

Mucopolysaccharidosis Type Ⅱ, as Known as Hunter syndrome, is a rare X-liked genetic disease caused by mutations in iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) gene. We obtained peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from a patient with a severe type of Hunter syndrome carrying c.418 + 495_1006 + 1304 deletion in the IDS gene.

Paramyxoviruses are significant human and animal pathogens that include mumps virus (MuV), Newcastle disease virus (NDV) and the murine parainfluenza virus Sendai (SeV). Despite their importance, few host factors implicated in paramyxovirus infection are known. Using a recombinant SeV expressing destabilized eGFP (rSeVCdseGFP) in a loss-of-function CRISPR screen, we identified the CMP-sialic acid transporter (CST) gene SLC35A1 and the UDP-galactose transporter (UGT) gene SLC35A2 as essential for paramyxovirus infection.
