“When viruses infect cells, they usually create specialized compartments – replication factories – where they form new ...

Research on norovirus replication hubs reveals RNA polymerase's key role in viral replication, offering potential antiviral ...

Human norovirus, a positive-strand RNA virus that is the leading cause of viral gastroenteritis accounting for an estimated ...

Human norovirus, the leading cause of viral gastroenteritis accounting for an estimated 685 million cases and approximately ...

BK polyomavirus, or BKPyV, is a major cause of kidney transplant failure. There are no effective drugs to treat BKPyV.

Viruses are packets of genetic material surrounded by a protein coating. They replicate by getting inside of a cell where ...

The virus remains dormant in most people but can reactivate in those who have received a kidney transplant. As there are ...

For the first time, however, the structure of this protective mantle and its interactions with the virus' RNA have been ...

The study is published in the journal PLOS Pathogens. With only seven genes, the BK polyomavirus must use the host cell’s DNA replication machinery to produce new viruses. Although the virus was ...

Combining bioinformatics and experimetal approaches, researchers have discovered replication hubs for human norovirus, the leading cause of viral gastroenteritis accounting for an estimated 685 ...
