These RNAs are negative-sense ... to influenza A or B viruses. Due to the segmented nature of the influenza genome, in which coding sequences are located on individual RNA strands, genomes are ...

It is a near sphere of protein (cross section shown) inside a fatty membrane that protects a twisting strand of RNA--a molecule that holds the virus's genetic code. Proteins called "S" form spikes ...

A virus is a microscopic package of genetic material surrounded by a molecular envelope. This genetic material can be either deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or ribonucleic acid (RNA). DNA is a two-strand ...

Researchers at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology have discovered a unique genetic mechanism that provides cells with rapid and efficient protection against viruses. The findings could ...

The work promises to help scientists better understand everything from the way viruses propagate to how memories form in the brain. RNA is the molecule that reads the genetic information stored in ...

The endosomal membrane must gain a negative charge ... to replicate the viral RNA genome and viral proteins. After maturing, the newly synthesized dengue viruses are released and go on to infect ...

hMPV is a negative-sense single-stranded RNA virus belonging to ... prominent worldwide. These genetic changes produce additional amino acids in the virus’s outer envelope.

Another important discovery was an intricate RNA structure near the critical "frameshift site" in the viral genome. This frameshift site is essential for the virus to produce the correct ...

It combines data from DNA sequencing, gene expression ... a viral enzyme called RNA polymerase before translation into protein can occur. Viruses that have negative-sense RNA genomes include influenza ...

RNA is the molecule that reads the genetic information stored in DNA ... help scientists better understand everything from the way viruses propagate to how memories form in the brain.
