Villarreal L
Viruses . 2011 Nov; 3(10):1933-58. PMID: 22069523
All life must survive their corresponding viruses. Thus antiviral systems are essential in all living organisms. Remnants of virus derived information are also found in all life forms but have...

Villarreal L
Ann N Y Acad Sci . 2009 Oct; 1178:194-232. PMID: 19845639
Stable colonization of the host by viruses (genetic parasites) can alter the systems of host identity and provide immunity against related viruses. To attain the needed stability, some viruses of...

Villarreal L, Witzany G
J Theor Biol . 2009 Oct; 262(4):698-710. PMID: 19833132
In contrast with former definitions of life limited to membrane-bound cellular life forms which feed, grow, metabolise and replicate (i) a role of viruses as genetic symbionts, (ii) along with...

Villarreal L
Curr Opin Microbiol . 2009 Jul; 12(4):467-72. PMID: 19608458
Recently, we have realized that viruses numerically dominate all life. Although viruses are known to affect host survival in populations, this has not been previously evaluated in the context of...

Davies D, Liang X, Hernandez J, Randall A, Hirst S, Mu Y, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2005 Jan; 102(3):547-52. PMID: 15647345
Despite the increasing availability of genome sequences from many human pathogens, the production of complete proteomes remains at a bottleneck. To address this need, a high-throughput PCR recombination cloning and...

Randall A, Baldi P, Villarreal L
Artif Intell Med . 2004 Jun; 31(2):105-15. PMID: 15219289
Recent concerns over the potential use of variola virus-commonly known as smallpox-and other orthopox viruses as weapons of bioterrorism have increased research efforts towards creating new antiviral drugs and safer...

Zambrano A, Kalantari M, Simoneau A, Jensen J, Villarreal L
Prostate . 2002 Nov; 53(4):263-76. PMID: 12430138
Background: To determine whether human polyomavirus (hPy) genomes are present in prostate tissues, we have carried out a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) screening in two sets of prostate samples, archival...

DeFilippis V, Ayala F, Villarreal L
J Mol Evol . 2002 Oct; 55(4):491-9. PMID: 12355268
Human papillomavirus type 16 is a common sexually transmitted pathogen capable of giving rise to cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and invasive carcinoma through the expression and activity of two adjacent oncogenes:...
