The genetic material of SARS-CoV-2 changes structure to boost its survival, revealed researchers. This finding can help produce more effective drugs to treat the infectious disease.

Influenza A virus particles strategically adapt their shape-to become either spheres or larger filaments-to favor their ability to infect cells depending on environmental conditions, according to ...

For centuries, coronaviruses have triggered health crises and economic challenges, with SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus that spreads COVID-19, being a recent example. One small protein in SARS-CoV-2, the ...

The genetic material of SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing Covid-19, can change shape and structure to boost its survival, say researchers noting that the finding can help produce more effective drugs ...

We're all taught that proteins have 'a' structure. Ebola virus's VP40 protein, however, changes itself into different structures at different times, depending on the function needed." ...

The new study shows how one of Ebola virus's key proteins, VP40, uses molecular triggers in the human cell to transform itself into different tools for different jobs.
