It’s the same when doctors, researchers and epidemiologists fight any virus: The physical structure of its molecules dictate how a virus infects people and moves through their bodies as well as how to ...

Researchers have shown, for the first time, how the genetic material of the Nipah virus replicates in infected cells. The ...

In addition, we use other complementary methods such as X-ray crystallography and biochemistry to help connect the path from structure to function. Our recent research focuses on human pathogenic ...

The replication of the Nipah virus's genetic material in infected cells has been demonstrated for the first time by ...

Researchers used cryo-EM, glycoproteomics, and modeling to generate the atomic structure of a fully glycosylated and membrane ...

The 3.0 Å resolution crystal structure of Pariacoto virus (PaV) reveals extensive interactions between portions of the viral RNA genome and the icosahedral capsid. Under the protein shell of the ...

The measles virus is an enveloped virus bearing a lipid bilayer. The bilayer holds the receptor binding hemagglutinin (H) protein and the fusion (F) protein. For infection to happen, the H protein ...

Hepatitis C virus (HCV), a (+)-strand RNA virus ... residues reflects crystal packing constraints, and an alternate structure exists in the NS5B-containing replicase complex, cannot be excluded.

To find the answer, they developed a way to observe and measure real-time influenza A virus structure during formation. The researchers found: Influenza A viruses rapidly adjust their shape when ...

A new combination of microscopy methods has revealed exquisite detail of the virus assembly process used by herpes simplex virus during replication.
