Scientists share detailed, complete images of a viral structure called the Ebola virus nucleocapsid. This breakthrough may accelerate the development of antivirals that target this viral structure to ...

Research on the genome of the virus that causes severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) has revealed an unusual molecular structure that looks like a promising target for antiviral drugs. A team of ...

In research, scientists rely on many models to study various biological processes. The lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infects rodents as well as humans, and has long been used to study how ...

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 ...

Researchers have used advanced microscopy and computational modeling to show how herpesvirus infection affects host-cell nucleus structure.

The virus that causes COVID-19 can alter the genomic structure of cells, which may explain the immunological symptoms that someone experiences from an infection, according to a new study from ...

The press release below was prepared by University of Utah Health. View the original. In a rare but serious complication of cancer, the body’s own immune system can start attacking the brain, causing ...

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* server, researchers designed two dumbbell-1 (DB-1) mutant Zika virus (ZIKV) infectious clones termed ZIKV-TL.PK and ZIKV-p.2.5’. While the former disrupted ...
