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 ...

The influenza A virus genome consists of eight segments of single-stranded, negative-sense viral RNA, which encode multiple ...

They say that change takes time. Well, that's not the case for RNA. The small biological molecule acts like a switchboard ...

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 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 ...

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 ...
