His research involves studying the structure of viruses and how they interface with the cells of their hosts’ bodies — hence the mapping of the Zika antibodies. That structural understanding is key to ...

The dengue virus has a roughly spherical shape. Inside the virus is the nucleocapsid, which is made of the viral genome and C proteins. The nucleocapsid is surrounded by a membrane called the ...

Scientists are now looking to bacteriophage — viruses that infect bacteria — and their potential to treat drug-resistant ...

Researchers have shown, for the first time, how the genetic material of the Nipah virus replicates in infected cells. The ...

Viruses are tiny agents that can infect a variety of living organisms, including bacteria, plants, and animals. Like other viruses, the dengue virus is a microscopic structure that can only ...
