 ILL ANNUAL REPORT 2002
Typical lifecycle of a dsRNA virus is exemplified in figure 1 using bacteriophage φ6, a model organism for studying assembly and replication of other dsRNA viruses.
The virion, containing 3 dsRNA segments S (small), M (medium), L (large) attaches to the host cell (a) and the polymerase complex penetrates the host membranes and loses both the envelope and the nucleocapsid coat (b).
This indicates that the position of the polymerase machinery is conserved across a wide range of dsRNA virus species and is dictated by similar genomic organisation and replication mode.

 A Comprehensive View of Regulation of Gene Expression by Double-Stranded RNA-Mediated Cell Signaling.
Virtually nothing is known about how dsRNA affects viral and cellular gene expression and functions in a virally infected cell, although the role of PKR, the dsRNA-activated protein kinase, in inhibiting protein synthesis has been studied in cells infected with a variety of viruses (2).
Those in Group A are induced by dsRNA, IFN, or several viruses; genes in Group B are induced by IFN and viral infection; those in Group C are induced by dsRNA and viruses; and the Group D genes are induced by dsRNA and IFN.
In the context of the equilibrium maintained between a virus and its host cells, some of these proteins may contribute to the host defense mechanisms whereas others may be used by the virus to evade the host defense.

Because virus diversity and rapid evolution pose great barriers to control, one of our goals is to identify broadly conserved virus features that can serve as a basis for broad-spectrum antiviral strategies.
The results show that these three virus classes share similarities in the form and function of their replication complexes and may have evolved from common precursors, supporting a significant unification across virology.

 INTEGRATING OF KNOWLEDGE ON REGULATION OF MX1 PROTEIN INDUCTION AND ANTIVIRAL ACTION BY A MATHEMATICAL MODELING APPROACH
Both the course and the outcome of infection are influenced on the one hand by virus cytopathogenicity, rapidity of spread, generation time, susceptibility to interferon etc, and on the other hand by the efficiency of antiviral defense.
The regularities of influenza virus multiplication and different production strategies of virus- and IFN-inducible Mx1 proteins permit to assume that Mx1 proteins being induced by means of alternative mechanisms inhibit different steps of the virus multiplication cycle and this results in different efficacy of cell protection.
In this case, Mx1 protein produces in infected cells in late stage of virus replication cycle and therefore is unable to block virus spread.

How a virus with a multi-segmented genome assorts its genome to assemble new progeny virus particles has persisted as a difficult question to address.
Using reovirus, a 10-segmented dsRNA virus producing progeny virus with infectivity approaching 100%, we have taken a major step toward understanding the mechanisms involved.
Our work has established a firm foundation from which studies can be initiated into the assortment and encapsidation of the segmented dsRNA genomes of the remaining members of the family Reoviridae, and additional viruses with segmented genomes.
