A virus that typically infects black-eyed peas is showing great promise as a low-cost, potent cancer immunotherapy—and ...

Subtle differences in an mRNA sequence enables a ribosome to produce more or less of a certain protein. A new AI model called ...

Once dismissed as “junk,” pieces of ancient viral DNA in our genome are now known to help control which genes are turned on or off.

New research has suggested that a virus that has typically been thought of as common and harmless may actually be associated with an increased risk of Parkinson's disease. This study, which has been ...

Viruses typically aren’t considered ‘alive,’ as many core biological functions are outsourced to their hosts. But a newly discovered organism appears to straddle the line between virus and cell.

In a scientific first, researchers from Vanderbilt University and the University of California, San Diego, have generated a ...

Here we defined the main viral determinant of Ebola virus pathogenicity; synthesis of the virion glycoprotein (GP) of Ebola virus Zaire induced cytotoxic effects in human endothelial cells in ...

A newly discovered parasite has caused quite a stir among microbiologists who were left scrambling to place it on the tree of life – and it seems even the organism itself is confused as to its ...
