Scientists from the Biology Centre of the Czech Academy of Sciences found forty new freshwater viruses infecting aquatic ...

The central dogma of biology defines the flow of genetic information: It describes how proteins are made from mRNA templates, ...

Researchers have found that coronaviruses like SARS-CoV-2 contain genes that appear important for viral survival even though they don't produce a working protein. Their work investigating how these ...

We know that viruses infect cells, but what does that process actually look like? Sure, diagrams can be helpful, but there’s ...

Perhaps all viruses arose via a mechanism yet to be uncovered. Today's basic research in fields like microbiology, genomics, and structural biology may provide us with answers to this basic question.

As well as being co-lead over the full grant, Kuhn heads up one of the grant’s main goals, or cores: that of the structural biology of the antibodies and viruses themselves. Increasing resolution in ...

"If we're looking at virus biology, one of the most important things we can understand is entry mechanisms. Because if you can stop the ability of a virus to infect a cell through disrupting that ...

Prof. Takemura is confident that this film will be a valuable tool for teaching biology, explaining that, “It enhances ...

Scripps Research scientists engineered stable RSV and hMPV F proteins, overcoming instability challenges to design effective ...

Microorganisms—bacteria, viruses and other tiny life forms—may drive biological variation in visible life as much, if not ...
