The COVID pandemic illustrated how urgently we need antiviral medications capable of treating coronavirus infections. To aid ...

New imaging tools reveal how within an hour of infection, the virus begins to alter our chromosomes to kick-start its own replication.

Scientists in Spain and China discovered that HSV-1 begins rewriting the architecture of human genes just one hour after ...

A: 3D structure of the ds RNA filament obtained by Amira Software. Yellow: membrane, Red: RNA and blue: neck complex base. B: Increase of RNA lengths with spherule volume shown in a graph.

A fatal virus has been discovered in shrews in Alabama, sparking concerns about potential contagion to humans. The Camp Hill virus was discovered by researchers at The University of Queensland.

Until now, the structure and function of the Nipah virus polymerase remained poorly understood. Unraveling this piece of the viral apparatus is the critical first step toward developing ways to ...

Targeting Ebola virus—and more As Watanabe explains, targeting the nucleocapsid spells game over for the virus. “If you don’t have a nucleocapsid, nothing can happen. That’s the core of the virus,” ...

“We presented the first structure of an enteric HAdV—HAdV-F41—determined by cryo-electron microscopy to a resolution of 3.8 Å. The structure reveals extensive alterations to the virion ...

The virus has had several outbreaks across the world since then, with much research focus on its structure and transmission method due to its unusual nature.

Purdue researchers have determined the high-resolution structure of the immature Zika virus. This composite image of the surface (left), and cross-sectional region (right), reflect the new findings.

An important breakthrough in understanding the Zika virus structure and its behaviour has been highlighted in a study by Duke-NUS Medical School (Duke-NUS) scientists.
