Purdue University researchers, working with scientists at the California Institute of Technology, have solved the three-dimensional structure of the dengue virus, which is transmitted by mosquitoes ...

A group of American scientists have unveiled the first three-dimensional structure of the dengue virus, opening new avenues for research into how the virus is transmitted, and hopefully how to ...

A team including Purdue University's Michael Rossmann and Richard Kuhn has solved the structure of the immature dengue virus, which is related to West Nile virus and yellow fever. Dengue is a mosquito ...

Flaviviruses, which cause insect-borne diseases such as dengue, West Nile virus, and yellow fever, have long stumped scientists trying to understand their molecular structure. No more, say ...

It’s a starting point.” The researchers who mapped the Zika virus’ shape in 3D are the same ones who, in 2002, revealed the structure of the dengue virus. But the techniques used in today ...

Figure 1: Structure of the dimer of dengue E soluble fragment (sE) in the mature virus particle. An important missing link in our picture of membrane fusion is a direct view of a fusion peptide or ...

We set out to explain the interplay between E and M during viral maturation and infection by solving the cryo-EM structure of a native, mature dengue virus. Here we report the 3.5-Å structure of ...

They also aim to determine the crystal structure of the protein complex formed between plasmin kringle-domains and the envelope protein of the dengue virus.

As the dengue virus continues to be a significant global health concern ... "Our study shows that NKT cells not only shape the immune response to an initial dengue infection but also play a pivotal ...

Its symptoms often resemble those of dengue and Zika ... 1 The chikungunya virus (CHIKV), an alphavirus, is the causative agent of this serious illness. To facilitate viral RNA replication ...
