New imaging tools reveal how within an hour of infection, the virus begins to alter our chromosomes to kick-start its own replication.

The cold sore-causing Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV-1) hijacks human cells and reconfigures its DNA within just an hour after infection, according to a new study that may help tackle the pathogen.Viruses ...

Viral DNA replication and the KSHV DNA replication proteins are essential to successful viral replication and, thus, appealing therapeutic targets. Our focus is characterizing the functions and ...

When they expressed this mutant viral protein in human cells using a system to evaluate polyomavirus DNA replication, they found the virus’s genome replication was decreased by 10-fold. However, viral ...

Franklin W. Stahl, an American molecular biologist whose landmark 1957-58 experiment with colleague Matthew Meselson revealed ...

A replication-defective DNA virus is incapable of replicating its genome, its essential genetic matter. As a result, it is unable to produce an infectious progeny virus in infected cells, ...

TAg expression and viral replication occurred after the first round of host DNA replication, and TAg expression also depended on the cell's going through a first round of replication.

With only seven genes, the BK polyomavirus must use the host cell’s DNA replication machinery to produce new viruses. Although the virus was discovered over 50 years ago, little is known about how ...
