An international research team has deciphered a mechanism of the evolutionary arms race in human cells. The findings provide ...

Mitochondria are cell organelles surrounded by a double membrane. In addition to numerous essential functions in the ...

At present, there are no approved antiviral drugs for Nipah and supportive care is the only option for human infections.

Herpes simplex viruses display hundreds of gD glycoproteins, and yet their neutralization requires tens of thousands of antibodies per virion, leading us to ask whether a wild-type virion with just a ...

Viruses are a mysterious and poorly understood force in microbial ecosystems. Researchers know they can infect, kill and manipulate human and bacterial cells in nearly every environment, from the ...

Scientists at La Jolla Institute for Immunology (LJI) have uncovered the structure and function of the first FDA-approved treatment for Zaire ebolavirus (Ebola virus).

Recent molecular findings offer new details on how Nipah and Hendra viruses attack cells, and the immune responses that try to counter this onslaught. The results point toward multi-pronged tactics to ...

He studies bat immunity to many dangerous viruses, and conducts molecular structure and function studies of the infectivity machinery in coronaviruses, other related viruses, and henipaviruses.

Pseudoviruses are synthetic chimeras that consist of a surrogate viral core, derived from a parent virus, and an envelope glycoprotein on its surface derived from a heterologous virus. 1 The parent ...

In this review, we highlight and describe the recent progress that has been made in the biosynthesis, structure, function, and antigenicity of the SARS-CoV-2 S glycoprotein, aiming to provide valuable ...
