Researchers at Texas Biomedical Research Institute and the University of Chicago have uncovered a mechanism that SARS-CoV-2, ...

A new study published in Nature Microbiology has uncovered significant genetic and antigenic diversity among H9N2 avian ...

Transposable elements contribute to evolution, but their own diversification remains incompletely understood. Here, insect ...

Thus, these viruses may sacrifice inherent replicative capacity in the short term to allow persistent viral replication in the long term. Further advancement of therapeutic regimens and ...

Although previous immunity partially reduces subtype-specific responses to a new virus variant, we found that poor immunogenicity of the mutated epitopes in the infecting virus has a larger effect ...

Scientists engineered viruses by swapping gene segments, revealing how even small genetic shifts can significantly alter a ...
