THE rate of virus multiplication may ultimately be limited by the number of unprogrammed ribosomes available to viral nucleic acid. There is presumably only a finite probability in unit time that ...

The Zika virus causes birth defects like microcephaly and scientists are just understanding how that happens using mouse models ...

Originally published in February 1957“When a new phenomenon like virus multiplication comes to be studied, almost all the knowledge of cellular chemistry and function gained from other types of ...

Virus multiplication continually generates new variants at a rate that is much faster than their hosts. One consequence of their higher mutation rate is that many viruses can rapidly adapt to new ...

The influenza A virus is known to form new strains every year. These strains are the result of small variations occurring at the level of the genome, which cause the virus to become different and ...

Uncontrollable virus multiplication in these cells leads to their destruction and manifestation of severe inflammation; lung diseases like pneumonia; and sometimes death.

But Chun and his colleagues found that while T-cells were responsible in one man, antibodies were suppressing virus multiplication in the other.

Composed of numerous subunits, it carries out the entire transcription process for the virus, thereby enabling an important step in the pathogen’s multiplication.
