Molecular genetic identification of skeletal remains of apartheid activists in South Africa
(Academic Journals, 2008)
The Truth and Reconciliation Commission made significant progress in examining abuses committed
during the apartheid era in South Africa. Despite information revealed by the commission, a large
number of individuals ...
The scientific merit of Carpobrotus mellei L. based on antimicrobial activity and chemical profiling
(Academic Journals, 2006)
Species of the genus Carpobrotus are similar in appearance and have been used for medicinal
purposes over many generations. Carpobrotus mellei is endemic to the south-Western Cape of South
Africa, and also used for various ...
The Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 3a Protein Up-Regulates Expression of Fibrinogen in Lung Epithelial Cells
(American Society for Microbiology, 2005)
Here we analyzed the gene expression profile of cells that stably express the severe acute respiratory
syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) 3a protein to determine its effects on host functions. A lung epithelial
cell-line, ...
Cellular Characterization of SARS Coronavirus Nucleocapsid
(Leibniz Research Centre for Working Environment and Human Factors, 2004)
The Severe and Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus (SARS CoV) is a newly-emerged virus that caused an outbreak of atypical pneumonia in the winter of 2002-2003. Polyclonal antibodies raised against the nucleocapsid (N) ...
Profiles of antibody responses against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus recombinant proteins and their potential use as diagnostic markers
(American Society for Microbiology, 2004)
Identification, sequence analysis, and phylogeny of the immediate early gene 1 of the trichoplusia ni single nucleocapsid polyhedrosis virus
(Springer Verlag, 2001)
Substantial research has been conducted on the immediate early 1 (ie-1) genes from the prototype baculovirus
Autographa californica multicapsid nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcMNPV) and the Orgyia pseudotsugata
multicapsid ...
The genetic organisation of a 2,966 basepair DNA fragment of a Single Capsid Nucleopolyhedrovirus isolated from Trichoplusia ni
(Springer Verlag, 2002)
In order to investiagte the genomic organization of the Trichoplusia ni Single Capsid Nucleoplyhedrovirus (TnSNPV) , a 2,966 base pairs (bp) genomic fragment was sequenced. The fragment was found to contain five open reading ...
A novel cell-based binding assay system reconstituting interaction between SARS-CoV S protein and its cellular receptor
(Elsevier, 2005)
Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), a life-threatening disease, is caused by the newly identified virus SARS coronavirus (SARSCoV).
In order to study the spike (S) protein of this highly contagious virus, we established ...
Identification and characterization of the Trichoplusia ni Single Capsid Nuclear Polyhedrosis Virus p10 gene
(Springer Verlag, 2000)
The p10 gene was identified and characterized from the Trichoplusia ni single capsid nuclear
polyhedrosis virus (TniSNPV). The p10 open reading frame (ORF) sequence was identified following sequencing
of the ends of the ...
Monoclonal Antibodies targeting the HR2 Domain and the region immediately upstream of the HR2 of the S Protein neutralize in Vitro Infection of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus
(American Society for Microbiology, 2006)
We have previously shown that an Escherichia coli-expressed, denatured spike (S) protein fragment of the
severe acute respiratory coronavirus, containing residues 1029 to 1192 which include the heptad repeat 2
(HR2) ...
