    Abstract Many of the most outstanding contemporary Irish writers have paid homage to James Joyce’s figure and work in their fiction. This paper examines the extent of Joyce’s influence on a selection of contemporary Irish writers both at a thematic and at an aesthetic level. It is my contention that their humanist reading of the Irish genius has only recently been paralleled by Joycean critics such as Declan Kiberd whose Ulysses and Us: The Art of Everyday Living (2009) recuperates the humanist writer that authors such as Edna O’Brien, William Trevor, Dermot Bolger or Joseph O’Connor have been vindicating in their works. Therefore, their appreciation of the Irish genius contrasts with mainstream critical focus on the aesthetic and technical virtuoso Joyce, more frequently perceived by Joycean scholars and by writers such as Samuel Beckett or Flann O’Brien. My work on the influence of Joyce’s work in the literary career of some of the most relevant contemporary Irish writers is also a revision of the general tendency among Joycean critics who have traditionally centered their efforts on tracing the impact of his work on European and English authors (Virginia Woolf, Gertrude Stein, Philip Roth, John Barthes, Salman Rushdie, etc.).

    Abstract Flaviviruses such as Zika and dengue viruses are persistent health concerns in endemic regions worldwide. Efforts to combat the spread of flaviviruses have been challenging, as no antivirals or optimal vaccines are available. Prevention and treatment of flavivirus-induced diseases require a comprehensive understanding of their life cycle. However, several aspects of flavivirus biogenesis, including genome packaging and virion assembly, are not well characterized. In this study, we focused on flavivirus capsid protein (C) using Zika virus (ZIKV) as a model to investigate the role of the externally oriented α3 helix (C α3) without a known or predicted function. Alanine scanning mutagenesis of surface-exposed amino acids on C α3 revealed a critical CN67 residue essential for ZIKV virion production. The CN67A mutation did not affect dimerization or RNA binding of purified C protein in vitro. The virus assembly is severely affected in cells transfected with an infectious cDNA clone of ZIKV with CN67A mutation, resulting in a highly attenuated phenotype. We isolated a revertant virus with a partially restored phenotype by continuous passage of the CN67A mutant virus in Vero E6 cells. Sequence analysis of the revertant revealed a second site mutation in the viral membrane (M) protein MF37L, indicating a genetic interaction between the C and M proteins of ZIKV. Introducing the MF37L mutation on the mutant ZIKV CN67A generated a double-mutant virus phenotypically consistent with the isolated genetic revertant. Similar results were obtained with analogous mutations on C and M proteins of dengue virus, suggesting the critical nature of C α3 and possible C and M residues contributing to virus assembly in other Aedes-transmitted flaviviruses. This study provides the first experimental evidence of a genetic interaction between the C protein and the viral envelope protein M, providing a mechanistic understanding of the molecular interactions involved in the assembly and budding of Aedes-transmitted flaviviruses.

    Abstract Asymmetric structural elements are typically not readily visualized in icosahedral viruses that have other obvious symmetrical features and most asymmetry has gone unresolved for decades. Asymmetric features may be incorporated during assembly or maturation or develop during key steps in the infectious cycle of the virus. However, resolving asymmetric features requires abandoning capsid-wide symmetry averaging and relying on special applications during single-particle cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) analysis. Thanks to the advances in the cryo-EM field, we are learning more about asymmetry of viruses. Here we summarize some of what is currently known about asymmetric structural features using as examples members of the Togaviridae, Flaviviridae, Herpesviridae, Parvoviridae, and Papillomaviridae.
