## Abstract Japanese encephalitis (JE) virus infects a number of host cells, either mosquitoes or vertebrates, in nature. The viral envelope (E) protein is known to interact with molecule(s) on the cell membrane during the early stage of virus infection. In this study, two sets of virus variants in

The pseudorabies virus glycoprotein III (PrV-glII) has been identified previously as the major viral component binding to a heparin-like receptor on the surface of target cells. The amino acid sequence of glII contains three regions corresponding to consensus sequences for heparin binding. A synthet
## Abstract Genetically different subpopulations were identified and purified from Japanese Encephalitis virus (JEV). Those with small plaques (SPs; <2 mm in diameter), derived from strains of T1P1, CJN, and CC27, were more competent than those with large plaques (LPs; >5 mm in diameter) when passa
We characterized a synthetic peptide based on the glycosaminoglycan (GAG)-binding site of the serine proteinase inhibitor (serpin) heparin cofactor II (HCII): HCII'65-'9s, K'65DFVNASSKYEITTIHNLFRKLTHRLFRRNF'95. HCII'"5-195 negated acceleration of the HCII/thrombin inhibition reaction (IC, for the pe
Hepatitis B virus-encoded X antigen contributes to the development of hepatocellular carcinoma. Given that X antigen functions by binding to other proteins, additional X-binding proteins were sought from an adult human liver cDNA library in a yeast two-hybrid system. The results yielded a clone enco
## Abstract A random peptide library of heptamers displayed on the surface of M13 bacteriophage was used to identify specific epitopes of antibodies in pooled sera of swine naturally infected by Nipah virus. The selected heptapeptides were aligned with protein sequences of Nipah virus and several p
