Dengue virus needs the proteins encoded in its single-stranded RNA genome to propagate, but the virus can't produce them on its own. The virus must use the host cell's protein production machinery ...

As featured on the cover of the August 15 issue of G&D, an Argentinian research team, led by Dr. Andrea Gamarnik, report on their recent discovery of a novel mechanism of dengue virus replication.

Dengue virus needs the proteins encoded in its single-stranded RNA genome to propagate, but the virus can't produce them on its own.

Luciana Castellano, Stowers Predoctoral Researcher Dengue virus needs the proteins encoded in its single-stranded RNA genome to propagate, but the virus can't produce them on its own.

After infecting a host cell, the dengue virus hijacks the host cell's machinery to replicate the viral RNA genome and viral proteins. After maturing, the newly synthesized dengue viruses are ...

Dengue virus relies on the host cell’s machinery to produce the proteins encoded in its single-stranded RNA genome. This raises the question of whether dengue virus uses codons similar to that ...

The 3D model is superimposed. The tubules of the endoplasmic reticulum and inside them the balloon-like vesicles where the dengue virus replicates its genome can be seen. view more ...

This was not what they expected: “Viruses accumulate mutations during infection of their hosts. We were surprised to find that mutations in the dengue virus genome toward these less efficient codons ...

Mosquito-borne dengue viruses cause an estimated 50 million cases of human dengue fever a year and are a significant public health threat worldwide. A novel therapeutic approach prevents dengue virus ...

Our studies showed that the Zika virus has close parallels to the dengue virus in several aspects such as transition-transversion ratios, preferential vector for its spread, genome structure and ...
