Assembly and budding of a virus from a membrane microdomain. Viruses have an outer protein shell called a capsid which surrounds the viral nucleic acid. Enveloped viruses, such as HIV, have an ...

Select a category above to classify viruses according to shared characteristics. Select any virus below to explore its structure and biology. The envelope contains viral proteins embedded in it.

It is composed of the viral genome and capsid proteins surrounded by an envelope and a shell of proteins. After infecting a host cell, the dengue virus hijacks the host cell's machinery to ...

Berger and coworkers [8] showed that well-formed capsids can result if assembly follows "local rules", in which only subunits with the conformation dictated by adjacent subunits can bind to and ...

M w (t) is the full or empty capsid’s molecular weight (average) defined by fluctuations in time-resolved light scattering intensity. Categorizing viral rAAV capsid stability with or without DNA ...

The envelope glycoprotein complex of HHV-6, gH/gL/gQ1/gQ2, binds to CD46, which is a cellular receptor for the virus, and plays the key role of the virus entry. The lipid rafts play an important ...

The genus Flavivirus includes major pathogens such as dengue, yellow fever, Japanese encephalitis, West Nile and tick-borne encephalitis viruses. Molecular amplification assays for the diagnosis ...
