Human papillomaviruses, or HPVs, can cause dangerous infections in the skin and mucous membranes and may lead to cancer.

RECENT reviews which have appeared in this journal1 , 2 have pointed out the remarkable progress in the general areas of biochemical genetics, the biochemistry of proteins and nucleic acids and the ...

We chose animal nodavirus FHV to determine whether C. elegans supports virus replication, because FHV replicates in yeast, plant, insect and mammalian cells 13. The first genome segment of FHV ...

The product, called INNA-051, was able to “significantly reduce COVID-19 virus levels in the nose and throat,” per a company release, and dropped viral replication by 96% in ferrets, through a ...

Three out of four new infectious human diseases come from other animals. Here's what needs to happen for a virus to jump from one species to another.

Despite extensive research on viral replication, this is the first evidence that viruses reprogram bacterial cells to behave more like human or animal cells. The similarities between viral replication ...

An RNA virus that infects mosquitoes is the first example of an animal virus with a multicomponent composition.

A replicating animal virus might accumulate mutations that make it better at using that human cell as a replication factory, or better able to evade human defences.

In coinfected patients, influenza A virus interferes with SARS-CoV-2 replication in the lung and can continue to do so even more than 1 week after clearance of influenza A, according to new research.

This article addresses some of the questions relating to how hepatitis delta virus (HDV), an agent so far unique in the animal world, might have arisen.

Contrary to previous assumptions, hepatitis D virus-like agents seem to be active in a range of different animal species, from fish all the way to termites.

Poliovirus Polysomes and Poliovirus RNA as mRNA It was mentioned above that while host-cell polysomes were being broken down as a result of a virus-directed mechanism, large (400S) poliovirus-speci ...
