It’s the same when doctors, researchers and epidemiologists fight any virus: The physical structure of its molecules dictate how a virus infects people and moves through their bodies as well as how to ...

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

The 3.0 Å resolution crystal structure of Pariacoto virus (PaV) reveals extensive interactions between portions of the viral RNA genome and the icosahedral capsid. Under the protein shell of the ...

Research interests: assembly and structure determination of viruses, virus-receptor interaction, antivirals, neutralizing antibodies, electron cryo-microscopy, image processing, crystallography. Sarah ...

The measles virus is an enveloped virus bearing a lipid bilayer. The bilayer holds the receptor binding hemagglutinin (H) protein and the fusion (F) protein. For infection to happen, the H protein ...

The replication of the Nipah virus's genetic material in infected cells has been demonstrated for the first time by ...

Hepatitis C virus (HCV), a (+)-strand RNA virus ... residues reflects crystal packing constraints, and an alternate structure exists in the NS5B-containing replicase complex, cannot be excluded.
