简介：AbstractThe outbreak of viral infections are serious threat to human life and health. However, there remains to be a lack of effective treatments and prophylactic measures against some viral infections. Additionally, there are numerous challenges in developing vaccines and antiviral drugs (e.g., antibodies and protein inhibitors), such as low immunogenicity of vaccines, difficulties in storing vaccines, instability and easy degradation of protein drugs, and lack of drug selectivity. Protein-based biomaterials can interact with antiviral drugs or vaccines to achieve synergistic or enhanced effects, making them a promising antiviral tool with many advantages. Silk fibroin has the potential to stabilize liquid vaccines at room temperature. Elastin-like polypeptide modification can improve the stability and yield of virus-neutralizing antibodies. Drugs in combination with β-casein or serum albumin (SA) has good prospects in treating human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections. Moreover, the greatest value of SA as a protein-based antiviral material lies in its ability to target the liver and macrophages. In the future, combination with SA (direct conjugation or encapsulation with drugs) may be a better treatment strategy for viral hepatitis and HIV infections because it leads to fewer adverse reactions. In addition, self-assembling protein nanoparticles (SApNPs) are found to improve vaccine immunogenicity. The combination of multiple viral immunogens and multiple SApNPs produces different promising vaccine candidates, thus highlighting the value of SApNPs. This review aimed to discuss the current status and future prospects for the development of protein-based biomaterials to combat viral infections.

简介：AbstractAfrican swine fever virus (ASFV) is the causative agent of African swine fever, a highly fatal hemorrhagic disease of pigs, which has resulted in great economic losses to the global pork industry, especially in Asia. ASFV particles are comprised of multiple layers encompassing the genomic DNA. Though the capsid structure has been determined, very little is known about the structure of the core shell. The precursor polyprotein pp62 is the structural component of the core shell that gives rise to the p35 and p15 proteins. Herein, we describe the crystal structure of p15 at a resolution of 2.2 Å. The structure of p15 exhibits as a trimeric conformation that is mainly mediated by intermolecular disulfide bonds and supported by multiple hydrogen bond interactions. The button conformation on the surface of adjacent molecules may also play a role in trimeric formation of the ASFV p15. The center of the p15 trimer exhibits opposite electrostatic characteristics on each side. These findings benefit our understanding of ASFV core shell assembly and will aid in the design of antiviral drugs and vaccines.
