Researchers at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology have discovered a unique genetic mechanism that provides cells ...

The common and important infectious viruses in pigs and poultry mainly include DNA and RNA viruses, which pose significant threats to both animal and human ...

"In these conditions, an effective defense strategy is programmed cell death, which stops the development of viral infection ...

The global health landscape is constantly challenged by the emergence and re-emergence of viral pathogens. While significant ...

Key steps in the life cycle of HCV include entry into the host cell, uncoating of the viral genome, translation of viral proteins, viral genome replication, and the assembly and release of virions.

People genetically susceptible to Huntington's disease often see their movement, mood, and cognition decline slowly over time ...

Researchers at Tufts University revealed a possible molecular mechanism explaining how the DNA repeats are broken and then expanded in the Huntington’s disease gene, pointing to a component of the ...

Similar to the established antiviral oseltamivir, ALS-1 is designed to exploit vulnerability in the influenza virus. However, ALS-1 has a different mechanism of action than current antivirals ...

Researchers mapped HIV-1’s translation strategy, revealing RNA elements like uORFs, iORFs, and an intricate frameshift site structure that regulate viral protein synthesis. These findings highlight ...

This strategy is a cellular mechanism that prevents cells from being used as factories for virus production. Our unpublished results suggests that overcoming this cellular brake on viral ...
