D imaging reveals ancient phages virus with features dating back billions of years - and potential to fight today’s dangerous ...

Retroviruses are viruses that have evolved the ability to write their genetic code into a cell's own DNA. The most ancient ...

It's an evolutionary battle, an endless competition for survival, that has spanned millions of years. Within this epic tale ...

RNA is a central molecule in RNA virus biology, acting not only as a messenger of protein synthesis, but also as a genome. However, viruses encode a limited number of proteins able to interact with ...

The footprint of death (also referred to as FOOD in the study) may help guide the immune cells to the exact spot to clear ...

Scientists share detailed, complete images of a viral structure called the Ebola virus nucleocapsid. This breakthrough may accelerate the development of antivirals that target this viral structure to ...

Even in death, cells leave a trace. Scientists have discovered a microscopic “Footprint of Death” that not only helps the immune system clean up but can also give viruses a new way to spread infection ...

Researchers have revealed the regulatory mechanism of a specific protein, TRBP, that plays a key role in balancing the immune response triggered by viral infections in mammal cells. These findings ...

The emergence of T-cell therapy has fundamentally reshaped the approach to preventing and treating viral infections in patients undergoing allogeneic haemopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).

University of Manchester biologists have for the first time started to unpick the long-term biological changes associated ...

Seeing a trend in increased cancer deaths in the first two years of the COVID-19 pandemic, cancer biologist Julio Aguirre-Ghiso at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine suspected that viral ...

Ancient viral fossils buried in our DNA are offering fresh clues about how today’s respiratory pathogens infect and spread.
