Enterovirus relationships with stress granules: antagonism rules -- How does G3BP cleavage block stress granule assembly? -- Enterovirus relationships with P-bodies: rapid destruction -- Why Enteroviruses must antagonize RNA granules -- Future directions -- 7 The Autophagic Pathway and Enterovirus Infection -- Autophagy was first identified in Enterovirus infections through electron microscopy -- Basics of autophagy -- The relationship between Enteroviruses and autophagy -- Release of Enteroviruses without lysis -- Enterovirus proteins promote autophagic signalling and degradation -- Triggering of autophagy upon virus entry -- Coxsackievirus regulation of the autophagy pathway -- Enterovirus 71 -- Rhinovirus -- The dual nature of autophagy -- The current model -- 8 The Lipid Blueprints of Replicating Viral Genomes -- Introduction -- Membranes facilitate replication -- Convergence on a common lipid blueprint -- Advantages of enriching for PI4P lipids in replication organelles -- Mechanisms and consequences of viral induction of PI4P lipid production -- Phosphatidylethanolamine -- Cholesterol: co-factor to stabilize PI4P and phosphatidylethanolamine domains -- Viral mechanisms of obtaining cholesterol -- Therapeutic potential of targeting lipids and future directions -- Index.

This book represents a comprehensive tour of the current most important enterovirus research. The editors, Dr. Jackson and Dr. Coyne, have assembled a group of enteroviral experts who cover topics including viral entry and the hijacking of host functions; the dynamic analysis of ever-evolving virus genomes; the cellular membrane changes promoting virus assembly and release. This volume is a must-read for anyone with an interest in this family of viruses and an important acquisition for all microbiology libraries.
