A computational model of the more than 26 million atoms in a DNA-packed viral capsid expands our understanding of virus structure and DNA dynamics, insights that could provide new research avenues and ...

Researchers at Lund University, together with colleagues at the NIST Synchrotron Facility in the USA, have mapped on an atomic level what happens in a virus particle when the temperature is raised.

New research reveals that triggering a cell’s DNA damage response could be a promising avenue for developing novel treatments against several rare but devastating viruses for which no antiviral ...

(Nanowerk News) Using a virus-like delivery particle made from DNA, researchers from MIT and the Ragon Institute of MGH, MIT, and Harvard have created a vaccine that can induce a strong antibody ...

DNA scaffolds that mirror influenza virus protein geometry boost antiviral binding and reduce infection more effectively than free molecules, enabling a modular antiviral design strategy. (Nanowerk ...

Herpes simplex virus partially liquefies the tightly packed, gel-like interior of human cell nuclei to copy itself faster, a new study shows. The research centers on how the nucleus of each human cell ...

Using a DNA-based delivery particle, researchers created a vaccine that can induce a strong antibody response against SARS-CoV-2. Using a virus-like delivery particle made from DNA, researchers from ...

Ancient viral fossils buried in our DNA are offering fresh clues about how today’s respiratory pathogens infect and spread. By tracing the shared architecture between long-extinct retroviruses and ...
