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

Research interests: assembly and structure determination of viruses, virus-receptor interaction, antivirals, neutralizing antibodies, electron cryo-microscopy, image processing, crystallography. Sarah ...

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

The dengue virus has a roughly spherical shape. Inside the virus is the nucleocapsid, which is made of the viral genome and C proteins. The nucleocapsid is surrounded by a membrane called 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 ...

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 ...

Like other viruses, the dengue virus is a microscopic structure that can only replicate inside a host organism. Who discovered the dengue virus? How many types of dengue viruses are there ...
