Researchers have shown, for the first time, how the genetic material of the Nipah virus replicates in infected cells. The ...

The dengue virus has a roughly spherical shape. Inside the virus is the nucleocapsid, which is made of the viral genome and C proteins. The nucleocapsid is surrounded by a membrane called the ...

Researchers from the Institute of Science Tokyo have developed CeSPIACE, a peptide inhibitor that blocks SARS-CoV-2 from ...

His research involves studying the structure of viruses and how they interface with the cells of their hosts’ bodies — hence the mapping of the Zika antibodies. That structural understanding is key to ...

DNA is a super flexible and modular structure, meaning that with the right sequences ... in theory, cordon the virus off from a potential host cell and prevent infection, though the team didn’t test ...

Viruses are tiny agents that can infect a variety of living organisms, including bacteria, plants, and animals. Like other viruses, the dengue virus is a microscopic structure that can only ...
