TL;DR:
Native virus particles alkylated with iodoacetamide demonstrated a 4-log decrease in viral infectivity, which suggests that the modification of free cysteinyl residues results in the loss of infectivity by destabilizing the virus particle or that a rearrangement of disulfide bonds, which is required forinfectivity, is blocked by the modification.

Deletions in the transmembrane domain of a Sindbis virus glycoprotein alter virus infectivity, stability, and host range
JOURNAL OF VIROLOGY, 77(23), 12710–12719.
MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Animals; Base Sequence; Cell Line; Cricetinae; DNA Primers; Lipid Bilayers; Molecular Sequence Data; Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction; Sequence Deletion; Sequence Homology, Amino Acid; Sindbis Virus / genetics; Sindbis Virus / physiology; Virus Assembly
TL;DR:
It is found that progressive truncations in the transmembrane domain profoundly affected production of infectious virus in a cyclic fashion and also found that membrane composition effects protein-protein and protein- Membrane interactions during virus assembly.

Morphological variants of Sindbis virus produced by a mutation in the capsid protein
VIROLOGY, 307(1), 54–66.
MeSH headings : Animals; Capsid Proteins / genetics; Cell Line; Cricetinae; Kidney; Microscopy, Electron; Mutation; RNA, Viral / genetics; Sindbis Virus / genetics; Sindbis Virus / physiology; Sindbis Virus / ultrastructure; Transcription, Genetic; Transfection; Viral Plaque Assay
TL;DR:
The data presented in the following manuscript show that mutations in the capsid protein can result in the assembly of the virus structural proteins into icosahedra of different triangulation numbers, and support the hypothesis that families of icosadeltahedra would be developed by altering the distance between the points of insertion of the five-fold axis.

Exposure to low pH is not required for penetration of mosquito cells by Sindbis virus
JOURNAL OF VIROLOGY, 75(4), 2010–2013.
MeSH headings : Aedes / virology; Ammonium Chloride / pharmacology; Animals; Cells, Cultured; Chloroquine / pharmacology; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Sindbis Virus / drug effects; Sindbis Virus / physiology; Virus Replication / drug effects
TL;DR:
The results suggest that while these two drugs raise the pH of endosomes, they do not block insect cell penetration, and support previous results suggesting that exposure to an acid environment within the cell may not be an obligatory step in the process of infection of cells by alphaviruses.

Locations of carbohydrate sites on alphavirus glycoproteins show that E1 forms an icosahedral scaffold
CELL, 105(1), 127–136.
MeSH headings : Alphavirus / chemistry; Alphavirus / genetics; Alphavirus / ultrastructure; Amino Acid Motifs / genetics; Animals; Binding Sites / genetics; Carbohydrates / chemistry; Cell Line; Cricetinae; Cryoelectron Microscopy; Encephalitis Viruses, Tick-Borne / chemistry; Glycosylation; Membrane Glycoproteins / chemistry; Membrane Glycoproteins / genetics; Models, Molecular; Mutagenesis, Site-Directed; Protein Conformation; Ross River virus / chemistry; Sindbis Virus / chemistry; Sindbis Virus / ultrastructure; Viral Envelope Proteins / chemistry; Viral Envelope Proteins / genetics; Viral Fusion Proteins / chemistry; Viral Fusion Proteins / genetics
TL;DR:
There are 80 spikes on the surface of Sindbis virus arranged as an icosahedral surface lattice, consistent with the observed structural changes that occur on fusion with host cell membranes, suggesting a similar fusion mechanism for alpha- and flaviviruses.

A single deletion in the membrane-proximal region of the Sindbis virus glycoprotein E2 endodomain blocks virus assembly
JOURNAL OF VIROLOGY, 74(9), 4220–4228.
MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Animals; Binding Sites; Biological Transport; Cell Line; Cell Membrane / metabolism; Cricetinae; Cytoplasm / metabolism; Humans; Intracellular Fluid / metabolism; Molecular Sequence Data; Mutagenesis; Nucleocapsid / metabolism; Sindbis Virus / genetics; Sindbis Virus / physiology; Sindbis Virus / ultrastructure; Viral Envelope Proteins / genetics; Viral Envelope Proteins / metabolism; Viral Envelope Proteins / physiology; Viral Structural Proteins / metabolism; Virus Assembly / physiology
TL;DR:
A deletion mutant is constructed, ΔK391, in which a nonconserved lysine at the membrane-cytoplasm junction of the E2 tail has been deleted and it is proposed that the phenotypic differences displayed by this mutant in the two diverse host cells arise from fundamental differences in the lipid composition of the insect cell membranes.
