Nipah virus is a zoonotic virus harbored by fruit bats. It can be transmitted to pigs and humans, infect people through contaminated food, and can travel directly from person to person via droplets.

A mysterious virus known as HMPV (human metamnemovirus) is reportedly spreading in China, raising concerns due to its similarities with the COVID-19 outbreak.

As part of the team that in 2017 mapped the structure of a human antibody that could potently block Zika virus, Kuhn is one of the foremost scouts in the fight against viral diseases. Viral threats: ...

Targeting Ebola virus—and more As Watanabe explains, targeting the nucleocapsid spells game over for the virus. “If you don’t have a nucleocapsid, nothing can happen. That’s the core of the virus,” ...

These researchers use high-resolution imaging techniques to examine a virus’s molecular structure—and uncover where a virus is vulnerable to new therapies. In a new Cell study, scientists in LJI’s ...

One of the immune system’s healthy functions is to attack viruses, and PNMA2’s virus-like structure makes it particularly prone to being targeted as well, the researchers found. In fact, in ...
