Study of Vaccinia and Cowpox viruses' replication in Rac1-N17 dominant-negative cells

Abstract: Interfering with cellular signal transduction pathways is a common strategy used by many viruses to create a propitious intracellular environment for an efficient replication. Our group has been studying cellular signalling pathways activated by the orthopoxviruses Vaccinia (VACV) and Cowpox (CPXV) and their significance to viral replication. In the present study our aim was to investigate whether the GTPase Rac1 was an upstream signal that led to the activation of MEK/ERK1/2, JNK1/2 or Akt pathways upon VACV … Show more

“…This is proved by the co-transfection of sl-RhoGDIα with N-Rac or V-Rac. Although specific sites are mutated in N-Rac or V-Rac to inhibit or enhance Rac activity respectively 25,26 , a same inhibition of shear stress-induced FRET efficiency is observed in the biosensor, since both N-Rac or V-Rac can bind to the RhoGDIα within the sl-RhoGDIα biosensor in living cells. The RhoGDIα antibody experiment in vitro shows a similar testification in specificity.…”
