van Huizen M, Bloeme-Ter Horst J, de Gruyter H, Geurink P, van der Heden van Noort G, Knaap R, et al.
PLoS Pathog . 2024 Mar; 20(3):e1012100. PMID: 38527094
The coronavirus papain-like protease (PLpro) is crucial for viral replicase polyprotein processing. Additionally, PLpro can subvert host defense mechanisms by its deubiquitinating (DUB) and deISGylating activities. To elucidate the role...

Bailey-Elkin B, Knaap R, De Silva A, Boekhoud I, Mous S, van Vught N, et al.
PLoS Pathog . 2023 Dec; 19(12):e1011872. PMID: 38096325
Deubiquitination of cellular substrates by viral proteases is a mechanism used to interfere with host cellular signaling processes, shared between members of the coronavirus- and arterivirus families. In the case...

Myeni S, Bredenbeek P, Knaap R, Dalebout T, Morales S, Sidorov I, et al.
Nat Commun . 2023 Feb; 14(1):1141. PMID: 36854765
Coronaviruses express a papain-like protease (PLpro) that is required for replicase polyprotein maturation and also serves as a deubiquitinating enzyme (DUB). In this study, using a Middle East respiratory syndrome...

Geurink P, van der Heden van Noort G, Mulder M, Knaap R, Kikkert M, Ovaa H
Methods Enzymol . 2019 Mar; 618:357-387. PMID: 30850060
Protein (poly-)ubiquitination is a posttranslational modification that plays a key role in almost all cellular processes. It involves the installment of either single ubiquitin (Ub) moieties or one of eight...

Bailey-Elkin B, Knaap R, Kikkert M, Mark B
J Mol Biol . 2017 Jun; 429(22):3441-3470. PMID: 28625850
Post-translational modification of cellular proteins by ubiquitin regulates numerous cellular processes, including innate and adaptive immune responses. Ubiquitin-mediated control over these processes can be reversed by cellular deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs),...

Zhang W, Bailey-Elkin B, Knaap R, Khare B, Dalebout T, Johnson G, et al.
PLoS Pathog . 2017 May; 13(5):e1006372. PMID: 28542609
The recent Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV), Ebola and Zika virus outbreaks exemplify the continued threat of (re-)emerging viruses to human health, and our inability to rapidly develop effective...

Rabouw H, Langereis M, Knaap R, Dalebout T, Canton J, Sola I, et al.
PLoS Pathog . 2016 Oct; 12(10):e1005982. PMID: 27783669
Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) causes severe respiratory infections that can be life-threatening. To establish an infection and spread, MERS-CoV, like most other viruses, must navigate through an intricate...

van Kasteren P, Knaap R, van den Elzen P, Snijder E, Balasuriya U, van den Born E, et al.
Vet Microbiol . 2015 May; 178(1-2):132-7. PMID: 25975520
Arteriviruses are a family of positive-stranded RNA viruses that includes the prototypic equine arteritis virus (EAV) and porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV). Although several vaccines against these viruses...

Bailey-Elkin B, Knaap R, Johnson G, Dalebout T, Ninaber D, van Kasteren P, et al.
J Biol Chem . 2014 Oct; 289(50):34667-82. PMID: 25320088
Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) is a newly emerging human pathogen that was first isolated in 2012. MERS-CoV replication depends in part on a virus-encoded papain-like protease (PL(pro)) that...
