This image shows the replication cycle of HIV/SIV. The virus replicates in the body's own CD4+ T helper cells. In doing so, it introduces its own genetic information into the DNA of the host cell.

Cleveland Clinic virology researchers have found that a specific protein modification to the immune protein MDA5 is key to ...

Researchers had been studying the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii for decades without seeing evidence of an active virus within it -- until researchers not only found a virus in the alga but ...

These authors found 295 genes whose knockdown by at least two siRNAs reduced luciferase expression, and knockdown of 219 of these genes inhibited WSN virus replication in multiple-cycle growth.

The viral cyclin encoded by Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV/HHV8) facilitates both cell-cycle progression and apoptotic cell death. Although they seem a paradoxical pair, the cell ...

This breakthrough not only enhances our understanding of viral replication but also offers ... limiting the understanding of their full dynamic cycle. The SV40 LTag helicase serves as a well ...
