They say that change takes time. Well, that's not the case for RNA. The small biological molecule acts like a switchboard ...

Viruses, like those that cause COVID-19 or HIV, are formidable opponents once they invade our bodies. Antiviral treatments ...

Liquid-like condensates as replication factories have been extensively studied in other viruses, including the rabies and measles viruses. In this study, the researchers investigated whether ...

Technical advances have made it possible to produce reassortant strains between wild-type viruses (for their antigenic properties) and culture-adapted strains (for their replication properties).

Shah is senior author of the team’s published paper in mBio, titled “Microcephaly protein ANKLE2 promotes Zika virus replication.” In the paper, the team concluded that in combination with ...

If it is possible to block the transport and activation of these viral envelope proteins in infected cells, the replication of viruses in the body would be stopped. As different viruses use the ...
