"We know that Zika virus and related viruses rely on these very stable RNA structures to replicate," said Lazear. "By adjusting the stability of this RNA in the lab, we showed that we can shorten ...

Zika virus hijacks a key protein implicated in brain development for its own replication. Researchers led by Associate Professor Priya Shah at the University of California, Davis (CA, USA), have ...

Single-cell analysis helps uncover how the BK virus replicates, opening the door to new drug targets. BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is a major cause of kidney transplant failure. Without a complete ...

The Cusack group at EMBL Grenoble studies the replication process of influenza viruses. A new study from this group sheds light on the different mutations that the avian influenza virus can undergo to ...

The study is published in the journal PLOS Pathogens. With only seven genes, the BK polyomavirus must use the host cell’s DNA replication machinery to produce new viruses. Although the virus was ...

Researchers were able to test how viruses replicate differently across various bat species and organs using the new organoid ...
