Kobayashi S, Suzuki T, Igarashi M, Orba Y, Ohtake N, Nagakawa K, et al.
PLoS One . 2013 Oct; 8(10):e76668. PMID: 24130786
The capsid of the human polyomavirus JC virus (JCV) consists of 72 pentameric capsomeres of a major structural protein, Vp1. The cysteine residues of the related Vp1 of SV40 are...

Watanabe M, Phamduong E, Huang C, Itoh N, Bernal J, Nakanishi A, et al.
J Virol . 2013 Feb; 87(9):5053-64. PMID: 23427157
The folding and pentamer assembly of the simian virus 40 (SV40) major capsid protein Vp1, which take place in the infected cytoplasm, have been shown to progress through disulfide-bonded Vp1...

Li P, Itoh N, Watanabe M, Shi Y, Liu P, Yang H, et al.
J Virol . 2008 Oct; 83(1):37-46. PMID: 18945763
Proper folding of newly synthesized viral proteins in the cytoplasm is a prerequisite for the formation of infectious virions. The major capsid protein Vp1 of simian virus 40 forms a...

Li P, Nguyen A, Qu Q, Jafri Q, Aungsumart S, Cheng R, et al.
J Virol . 2007 Mar; 81(11):6099-105. PMID: 17360742
The exposure of molecular signals for simian virus 40 (SV40) cell entry and nuclear entry has been postulated to involve calcium coordination at two sites on the capsid made of...

Nakanishi A, Itoh N, Li P, Handa H, Liddington R, Kasamatsu H
J Virol . 2007 Feb; 81(8):3778-85. PMID: 17267496
We investigated the roles of simian virus 40 capsid proteins in the viral life cycle by analyzing point mutants in Vp1 and Vp2/3, as well as a deletion mutant lacking...
6.
Nakanishi A, Li P, Qu Q, Jafri Q, Kasamatsu H
Virus Res . 2006 Nov; 124(1-2):226-30. PMID: 17112617
To establish viral infection, SV40 must expose nuclear localization signals (NLSs) that are internal in the virion architecture in order to enter the nucleus via interaction with the host's nuclear...

Nakanishi A, Nakamura A, Liddington R, Kasamatsu H
J Virol . 2006 Aug; 80(18):8891-8. PMID: 16940501
Interaction of simian virus 40 (SV40) major capsid protein Vp1 with the minor capsid proteins Vp2 and Vp3 is an integral aspect of the SV40 architecture. Two Vp3 sequence elements...

Kasamatsu H, Woo J, Nakamura A, Muller P, Tevethia M, Liddington R
Protein Sci . 2006 Aug; 15(9):2207-13. PMID: 16882989
Two groups of temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants, termed ts B and ts C, have mutations in the major capsid protein of SV40, Vp1. These mutants have virion assembly defects at the...

Li P, Naknanishi A, Tran M, Ishizu K, Kawano M, Phillips M, et al.
J Virol . 2003 Jun; 77(13):7527-38. PMID: 12805453
For polyomaviruses, calcium ions are known to be essential for virion integrity and for the assembly of capsid structures. To define the role of calcium ions in the life cycle...
