A new, nano-scale look at how the SARS-CoV-2 virus replicates in cells may offer greater precision in drug development, a Stanford University team reports in Nature Communications. Using advanced ...

A newly identified virus–cell hybrid structure allows viruses to spread faster and more aggressively by hitching a ride on ...

UMBC scientists uncovered how enteroviruses initiate replication by assembling a conserved RNA–protein complex inside host ...

Researchers found that icosahedral viruses deliberately break symmetry using a single chemical bond to control RNA release.

In an article published in Nature Microbiology, scientists reveal the existence of numerous new lineages of mirusviruses, ...

Artificial intelligence has just helped virologists pull off something that used to take years of trial and error: crippling ...

The avian influenza virus needs to mutate to cross the species barrier and to infect and replicate within mammalian cells. Scientists have now deciphered the structure of the avian influenza virus's ...

As antibiotic-resistant infections rise and are projected to cause up to 10 million deaths per year by 2050, scientists are looking to bacteriophages, viruses that infect bacteria, as an alternative.

Different teams need to make the same conclusion multiple times before a consensus is reached and the finding can be built ...

Structure of the influenza virus replication complex, comprising two viral polymerases (dark and light colours) in interaction with human ANP32 (purple). In recent years, public health measures, ...
