A newly identified virus–cell hybrid structure allows viruses to spread faster and more aggressively by hitching a ride on ...

The measles virus is an enveloped virus bearing a lipid bilayer. The bilayer holds the receptor binding hemagglutinin (H) protein and the fusion (F) protein. For infection to happen, the H protein ...

The first atom-level model of a DNA-packed viral capsid reveals genome structure and possible new drug targets, University of Illinois researchers report. Pictured, from left: physics professor ...

A computational model of the more than 26 million atoms in a DNA-packed viral capsid expands our understanding of virus structure and DNA dynamics, insights that could provide new research avenues and ...

Our research focuses on uncovering the atomic-level structures of macromolecules that drive biological processes, especially those related to virus-host interactions and immunity. We harness these ...

Viruses possess a formidable ability to enter our cells to multiply there, thus triggering diseases. However, a team from ...

Artificial intelligence has just helped virologists pull off something that used to take years of trial and error: crippling ...
