In the world of viral research, uncovering a virus’s weaknesses is often a painstaking process that requires years of ...

The monkeypox virus has its own DNA polymerase F8 which, when together with the processive cofactors A22 and E4, constitutes the polymerase holoenzyme for genome replication.

This study has shown that HSV-1 is an "opportunistic interior designer" of human cells. | Genetics And Genomics ...

A computational model of the more than 26 million atoms in a DNA-packed viral capsid expands our understanding of virus structure and DNA dynamics, insights that could provide new research avenues ...

New imaging tools reveal how within an hour of infection, the virus begins to alter our chromosomes to kick-start its own replication.

The cold sore-causing Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV-1) hijacks human cells and reconfigures its DNA within just an hour after infection, according to a new study that may help tackle the pathogen.Viruses ...

Using cryo-microscopy, researchers present a high-resolution structure of monkeypox virus DNA polymerase holoenzyme, a complex that plays a key role in the genome replication process of the virus.

According to the Global.health website, Spain has had the most confirmed monkeypox cases with 2,835, followed by Germany with 1,859, the United Kingdom with 1,856, and the United States with 1,464.

Viruses are entirely dependent on their hosts to reproduce. They ransack living cells for parts and energy and hijack the ...

Using a virus-mimicking DNA scaffold instead of the usual protein one to deliver a vaccine to mice not only generated a robust immune response but avoided the off-target effects sometimes seen ...
