Scientists have captured the first detailed 'molecular movie' showing DNA being unzipped at the atomic level -- revealing how cells begin the crucial process of copying their genetic material.

The dengue virus attaches to the surface of a host cell and enters the cell by a process called endocytosis. Once deep inside the cell, the virus fuses with the endosomal membrane and is released ...

The dengue viral replication process begins when the virus attaches to a human skin cell (Figure 4). After this attachment, the skin cell's membrane folds around the virus and forms a pouch that ...

Infection with Zika virus in pregnancy can lead to neurological disorders, fetal abnormalities and fetal death. Until now, how the virus manages to cross the placenta, which nurtures the ...

This study reveals how SV40 helicase unwinds DNA, highlighting ATP hydrolysis's role in translocation and offering insights ...

Scientists have discovered that the herpes simplex virus-1 ... the reactivation process. The study revealed several important ...

The RNA polymerase is responsible for the replication of viral genetic ... the RNA polymerase interacts with the viral RNA genome during the copying process. To do this, they reproduced this ...

Occasionally, we also see surprisingly low CD4-cell counts among patients who control viral replication without ART (so-called "elite controllers"). In this cross-sectional study, researchers ...

Efavirenz (EFV), brand-named drugs such as Sustiva, is an antiretroviral drug utilized mostly for HIV/AIDS treatment and prevention. Efavirenz is a category of drugs that fall under non-nucleoside ...

in the process of unwinding DNA. As per the researchers, DNA helicases are essential during DNA replication because they separate double-stranded DNA into single strands, allowing each strand to ...

The virus is a multiple embedded virus (MEV) type of the baculovirus group, with symptoms, histology, ultrastructure, and mechanism of replication similar to other reported NPVs. Velvetbean ...
