Researchers identify how Marburg virus can efficiently infect human cells, using cryo-EM to demonstrate entry.
When a virus infects a bacterial cell, the viral genome is the first component to be fully injected into the cell, making it an ideal immune target. A bacterial enzyme anchored to the membrane ...
T cell activation—the process by which these key immune defenders recognize threats and mobilize against them—depends on exquisitely timed molecular signals. Now researchers have captured one of the ...
There’s a virus you may have never heard of before that is estimated to infect up to 90 percent of people and lurks quietly ...
A team at UT Southwestern Medical Center has identified a structural trick that lets viruses translate their genetic code inside human cells, even when that code is riddled with “bad” codons the host ...
For millions of people living with HIV, a daily regimen of medications is a lifelong necessity. If they stop taking the drugs—commonly referred to as antiretroviral therapy—the virus usually rushes ...
Waking up to a 100% battery on your phone may feel "safe," but you're likely sabotaging your phone's long-term health in the process. While phones are smart enough to stop a literal explosion if you ...
