which are necessary for viral replication inside the cell. Some viruses also have a lipid envelope embedded with proteins. Both enveloped and nonenveloped viruses use the proteins present on their ...

Shah is senior author of the team’s published paper in mBio, titled “Microcephaly protein ANKLE2 promotes Zika virus replication.” In the paper, the team concluded that in combination with ...

To conceptualize this transformation, let's examine the replication of retroviruses, the family of viruses to which HIV belongs. This process very closely mirrors the movement of an important ...

Viral replication relies on the ability of viruses to exit host cells, a process known as viral egress, which is crucial for spreading infection to new ...

Bringing all the components to make viruses in one place makes replication more efficient and also helps hide the virus from the immune system. “Our current model is that ANKLE2 is really important, ...

A study of fruit flies shows some species are highly susceptible to a wide range of viruses. The paper, published in the ...
