Cells have evolved ingenious ways to defend themselves from viral attack. Research from The Wertheim UF Scripps Institute ...

Rabies is notoriously difficult to treat once symptoms begin, and that challenge starts at the molecular level. Unlike many ...

Kennedy has claimed that mRNA vaccines “encourage new mutations and can actually prolong pandemics” – a misleading statement ...

Without MDA5 ISGylation, preclinical models of encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) infection were more severe. Viral replication and heart inflammation increased significantly.

The Cusack group at EMBL Grenoble studies the replication process of influenza viruses. A new study from this group sheds light on the different mutations that the avian influenza virus can undergo to ...

The resulting images, with a resolution of 10 nanometers, reveal what might be the most detailed view yet of how the virus replicates itself inside of a cell. The images show magenta RNA forming ...

In contrast, when a virus hijacks a host cell’s DNA replication machinery, it replicates hundreds of times. This “unlicensed” replication is not subject to the same quality control and is ...

During the replication of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, a long string of connected proteins is cleaved apart into individual proteins. This process is interrupted by an FDA-approved drug to treat COVID-19 ...

Known as licensed DNA replication, this controlled process occurs only once each time a cell divides. In contrast, when a virus hijacks a host cell's DNA replication machinery, it replicates ...
