Ebolavirus is internalized into host cells via macropinocytosis in a viral glycoprotein-dependent manner
Asuka Nanbo,Masaki Imai,Shinji Watanabe,Takeshi Noda,Kei Takahashi,Gabriele Neumann,Peter Halfmann,Yoshihiro Kawaoka +7 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that Ebolavirus is internalized into cells by stimulating macropinocytosis in a GP-dependent manner and may aid in the development of therapeutics for Ebolvirus infection.
Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV)-associated Gastric Carcinoma
TL;DR: The possibility of therapies targeting EBV-associated gastric carcinoma is proposed and the route of infection and carcinogenic role of viral genes are presented.

The coupling of synthesis and partitioning of EBV's plasmid replicon is revealed in live cells
TL;DR: A striking, non‐random partitioning is uncovered for this minimalist plasmid replicon that underlie EBV's success as a human pathogen and revealed additional properties of it and its host cells.

The spatio-temporal distribution dynamics of Ebola virus proteins and RNA in infected cells
TL;DR: A biologically contained Ebola virus system is used to characterize the spatio-temporal distribution of Ebola virus proteins and RNA during virus replication and finds that viral nucleoprotein (NP), the polymerase cofactor VP35, the major matrix protein VP40, the transcription activator VP30, and the minor matrixprotein VP24 were distributed in cytoplasmic inclusions.

TL;DR: Cav1.2 is identified as a sialylated host cell surface receptor that binds HA and is critical for IAV entry and replication, and reintroduction of wild-type but not the glycosylation-deficient mutants of Cav1.
