All specimens were quick frozen and stored at -70°C. before being tested for varicella virus. Virus was detected in all vesicle-fluid samples, but from none of the blood or pharyngeal samples.

The Sindbis-virus inhibitory properties of 17-D virus could be completely destroyed by acidification to pH 2 for twenty-four hours at 4°C, with restoration of the pH to 7.2.

They suspect that the virus uses a specific molecular key to awaken the bacteria, and then hijacks the cell’s multiplication machinery for its own reproduction. However, the ETH researchers have not ...

A polymorphic virus is a piece of code characterized by the following behavior: Encryption, Self-multiplication, and changing of one or more components of itself so that it remains elusive.

Proteins known as ‘non-structural’ proteins (proteins involved in virus multiplication or control of the chicken’s cells) were identified as potential targets to weaken the M41 IBV strain. This study ...

Human Respiratory Syncytial Virus NS2 Protein Induces Autophagy by Modulating Beclin1 Protein Stabilization and ISGylation. mBio, 2022; DOI: 10.1128/mbio.03528-21 ...

One viral protein could provide information to deter pneumonia causing the body’s exaggerated inflammatory response to respiratory viruses, including the virus that causes COVID-19. That viral ...

Thus far, the history of SARS-CoV-2 has developed in this sequence – from the original virus detected two years ago, to the Alpha variant (B117), the Beta variant (B1351), the Gamma variant, the ...
