WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Purdue University researchers Michael Rossmann and Richard Kuhn have been at the forefront of discovery with the help of a technology that recently led to a Nobel Prize in ...
Findings uncover the architecture of a key viral complex, showing how RNA interaction and protein assembly drive replication ...
Nipah virus is a zoonotic virus harbored by fruit bats. It can be transmitted to pigs and humans, infect people through contaminated food, and can travel directly from person to person via droplets.
Orthohantaviruses, such as the Puumala virus, are widespread in Europe, causing flu-like illnesses and severe kidney damage in those infected. It is increasingly considered a zoonotic threat.
Viruses are tiny agents that can infect a variety of living organisms, including bacteria, plants, and animals. Like other viruses, the dengue virus is a microscopic structure that can only replicate ...
Viruses need us. In order to multiply, viruses have to invade a host cell and copy their genetic information. To do so, viruses encode their own replication machinery or components that subvert the ...
The model on the left shows how the Ebola virus stalk has a compact conformation, which blocks the site where mAb 3A6 would bind. The model on the right shows how this portion of the stalk can adopt ...
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — As summer kicks into full gear and people are spending more time outside, there’s one thing on many people’s minds — ticks. Tick season is starting earlier and lasting longer, ...
A giant virus discovered in Japan is adding fuel to the provocative idea that viruses helped create complex life. Named ushikuvirus, it infects amoebae and shows unique traits that connect different ...
