1. Atividade antiviral de extratos de plantas coletadas no estado de Minas Gerais: Parte 2. Triagem de Bignoniaceae
Extratos etanólicos de dezoito espécies vegetais pertencentes à família Bignoniaceae, das quais sete são descritas como de uso medicinal, foram avaliados, pelo ensaio colorimétrico do MTT, para atividades citotóxica, em células Vero, e antiviral, frente aos vírus herpes simplex-tipo 1, vaccinia e encefalomiocardite murina. A maior parte dos extratos

2. A RT-PCR assay for the detection of encephalomycarditis virus infections in pigs
Encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) infections can cause losses in pig farms all over the world. Rapid, sensitive and unequivocal detection of this virus is therefore essential for the diagnosis and control of the disease. An RT-PCR assay was developed, optimized and evaluated for encephalomyocarditis virus detection in organ based on a pair of primers that am

3. Inherent Instability of Poliovirus Genomes Containing Two Internal Ribosome Entry Site (IRES) Elements Supports a Role for the IRES in Encapsidation
Previous studies have described poliovirus genomes in which the internal ribosome entry (IRES) for encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) is positioned between the P1 and P2-P3 open reading frames of the poliovirus genome. Although these dicistronic poliovirus genomes were replication competent, most exhibited evidence of genetic instability, and the EMCV IRES wa

4. Induction of enhanced resistance against encephalomyocarditis virus infection of mice by nonviable Mycobacterium tuberculosis: mechanisms of protection.
Nonviable Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain Jamaica suspended in oil-droplet emulsions was used to enhance resistance of mice against encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV). The mycobacteria-injected mice were significantly resistant to 50,000 50% lethal doses of EMCV. Similar concentrations of virus in plasma of normal and mycobacteria-injected mice from 1 to 12

5. A Wild-Type Porcine Encephalomyocarditis Virus Containing a Short Poly(C) Tract Is Pathogenic to Mice, Pigs, and Cynomolgus Macaques
Previous studies using wild-type Encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) and Mengo virus, which have long poly(C) tracts (61 to 146 C's) at the 5′ nontranslated region of the genome, and variants of these viruses genetically engineered to truncate or substitute the poly(C) tracts have produced conflicting data on the role of the poly(C) tract in the virulence of

6. Application of immunoassay of encephalomyocarditis virus in cell culture with enzyme-labeled virus-specific monoclonal antibodies for rapid detection of virus, neutralizing antibodies, and interferon.
Encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV)-specific monoclonal antibody UM 21.1 labeled with horseradish peroxidase was used to detect EMCV in L-cell monolayers. This direct enzyme immunoassay of EMCV, performed in wells of 96-well plates, could be applied for various purposes, such as early detection of virus multiplication, determination of 50% tissue culture infec

7. Interferon action: binding of viral RNA to the 40-kilodalton 2'-5'-oligoadenylate synthetase in interferon-treated HeLa cells infected with encephalomyocarditis virus.
The 40-kDa 2'-5'-oligoadenylate [(2'-5') (A)n] synthetase isoenzyme was proven to be a mediator of the inhibition of encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) replication by interferon (IFN). When activated by double-stranded RNA, this enzyme converts ATP into 2'-5'-oligoadenylate [(2'-5') (A)n], and (2'-5') (A)n was found to accumulate in IFN-treated, EMCV-infected

8. Porcine Encephalomyocarditis Virus Persists in Pig Myocardium and Infects Human Myocardial Cells
Recent advances toward using pig tissues in human transplantation have made it necessary to determine the risk of transmitting zoonotic viruses from pigs to humans or vice versa. We investigated the suitability of the porcine encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) model for such studies by determining its ability to persist in pigs, escape detection by routine se

9. Activation of the translational suppressor 4E-BP1 following infection with encephalomyocarditis virus and poliovirus.
Infection of cells with picornaviruses, such as poliovirus and encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV), causes a shutoff of host protein synthesis. The molecular mechanism of the shutoff has been partly elucidated for poliovirus but not for EMCV. Translation initiation in eukaryotes is facilitated by the mRNA 5' cap structure to which the multisubunit translation

10. Synthesis of functional mRNA in mammalian cells by bacteriophage T3 RNA polymerase.
We found that the 5' nontranslated leader sequence from encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) allowed transcripts that were synthesized by the T3 RNA polymerase in mammalian cells to be translated in a cap-independent fashion. Stable mouse cell lines that carry the T3 RNA polymerase gene expressed the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) gene under the contro

11. The determination of secondary structure in the poly(C) tract of encephalomyocarditis virus RNA with sodium bisulphite.
The degree of secondary structure in the poly(C) tract of encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) RNA has been investigated using sodium bisulphite, which brings about the hydrolysis of non-base-paired cytidylic acid to uridylic acid in RNA. The percentage conversion of C to U in the poly(C) region of native EMCV RNA was similar to that found in a synthetic polynu

12. Initiation of protein synthesis by internal entry of ribosomes into the 5' nontranslated region of encephalomyocarditis virus RNA in vivo.
Expression vectors that yield mono-, di-, and tricistronic mRNAs upon transfection of COS-1 cells were used to assess the influence of the 5' nontranslated regions (5'NTRs) on translation of reporter genes. A segment of the 5'NTR of encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) allowed translation of an adjacent downstream reporter gene (CAT) regardless of its position
