Researchers at Umeå University show how tick-borne viruses remodel human cells into virus factories, using an advanced ...

Human norovirus, a positive-strand RNA virus that is the leading cause of viral gastroenteritis accounting for an estimated 685 million cases and approximately 212,000 deaths globally per year, has no ...

Researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology have decoded a critical survival strategy of the deadly Nipah virus (NiV), ...

Scientists have identified a potential new weapon against hepatitis E, a virus with no approved treatment and tens of ...

Langone researchers discovered that oral herpes viruses loosen the centers of cells in order to replicate more effectively in a host cell. In their March study, researchers including first author Nora ...

Baculoviruses are a diverse group of insect viruses that have long served as both biological control agents in agriculture and versatile tools in biotechnology. Their life cycle is marked by two ...

Viruses are entirely dependent on their hosts to reproduce. They ransack living cells for parts and energy and hijack the host's cellular machinery to make new copies of themselves. Herpes simplex ...

The herpesvirus can manipulate our DNA with far more precision than previously thought. The virus condenses and changes the shape of our genetic material to hijack the host genes needed for ...

The discovery could serve as a starting point for antiviral strategies. A research team at Ruhr University Bochum, Germany, has identified a previously unknown cellular mechanism crucial to the ...

Zika virus hijacks a key protein implicated in brain development for its own replication. Researchers led by Associate Professor Priya Shah at the University of California, Davis (CA, USA), have ...
