Architectural insight into inovirus-associated vectors (IAVs) and development of IAV-based vaccines inducing humoral and cellular responses: Implications in HIV-1 vaccines
(2014)Inovirus-associated vectors (IAVs) are engineered, non-lytic, filamentous bacteriophages that are assembled primarily from thousands of copies of the major coat protein gp8 and just five copies of each of the four minor ...

C2, An Unusual Filamentous Bacterial Virus: Protein Sequence and Conformation, DNA Size and Conformation, and Nucleotide/Subunit Ratio
(1995)Inovirus C2 is 1295 nm long and 6.8 nm in diameter, and its mass is 24 million Da. Its genome is a topologically circular, single-stranded DNA molecule of 8100 nucleotides. The DNA is packed in the virion as two antiparallel ...

Export of infectious particles by Escherichia coli transfected with the RF DNA of Pf1, a virus of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain K
(1991)Pf1 is a filamentous, single‐stranded DNA virus that has Pseudomas aeruginosa (strain K) as host. It is the longest of the filamentous bacterial viruses, and the DNA within it has the most extended conformation known. Pfl ...

HIV-1 vaccine strategies utilizing viral vectors including antigen-displayed inoviral vectors
(2013)Antigen-presenting viral vectors have been extensively used as vehicles for the presentation of antigens to the immune system in numerous vaccine strategies. Particularly in HIV vaccine development efforts, two main viral ...

Involvement of host DNA gyrase in growth of bacteriophage T5
(1986)Bacteriophage T5 did not grow at the nonpermissive temperature of 42°C in Escherichia coli carrying a temperature-sensitive mutation in gyrB [gyrB(Ts)], but it did grow in gyrA(Ts) mutants at 42°C. These findings indicate ...
