To round out the name, the viruses are given an H and N number to indicate a subtype. A full name might then look like this: ...

Researchers at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa have discovered that a virus, FloV-SA2, encodes one of the proteins needed ...

A new role has been uncovered for a cell's own RNA in fending off attacks by RNA viruses. Some of the cell's RNA molecules, researchers found, help regulate antiviral signaling. These signals are part ...

Weizmann Institute researchers have developed a new way to track the culprit – giant viruses – and identify their traces in specific types of tiny algae that they attack.

Researchers have linked chronic intestinal infections caused by cytomegalovirus (HCMV) to a unique subtype of Alzheimer’s ...

In this manuscript, Yao et al. present solid evidence to show that MnMYL3 may serve as a receptor for NNV via macropinocytosis. This manuscript is valuable for understanding the molecular mechanisms ...

In a new study, Weizmann Institute of Science researchers reveal a bacterial immune system that thwarts the phages’ plot by attaching a small protein molecule to their tails. The components of this ...
