Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine report in Science Advances a breakthrough in human norovirus (HuNoV) research.
HIEs were used to identify why the growth of norovirus in culture stops and to determine methods to maintain growth.
The herpesvirus can manipulate our DNA with far more precision than previously thought. The virus condenses and changes the shape of our genetic material to hijack the host genes needed for ...
Viruses rely on hosts to survive. But some viruses are more effective at reproducing than others. Now, new research has shown that the herpes virus, more specifically herpes simplex virus type 1 ...
Researchers at the University of Jyväskylä (Finland), in cooperation with national and international research groups, have ...
Lenacapavir (LEN) is an antiviral medication used to treat and prevent HIV/AIDS and was first approved for individuals with drug-resistant infections in 2022. While there is still no vaccine for the ...
The discovery could serve as a starting point for antiviral strategies. A research team at Ruhr University Bochum, Germany, has identified a previously unknown cellular mechanism crucial to the ...
During viral reproduction, the influenza polymerase (top left, in blue) scans along the ribonucleoprotein helix to produce messenger RNA. Credit: Science Like a camera-shy teenager, influenza’s ...
Researchers have profiled the molecular structure and features of a key part of the deadly Nipah virus. Experiments in cells showe how changes in the viral polymerase -- a protein involved in viral ...
The mosquito-borne Zika virus is known for causing microcephaly, a birth defect in which abnormal brain development results in a smaller-than-expected head. A new study shows that the Zika virus ...
