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.

CLEVELAND (WJW) – It is the latest version of influenza and it has been hitting hard all across the country. The Influenza A ...

Researchers have profiled the molecular structure and features of a key part of the deadly Nipah virus. Experiments in cells showe how changes in the viral polymerase -- a protein involved in viral ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — A team of researchers has determined the structure of the Zika virus, an important discovery in the development of antiviral treatments and vaccines. The researchers, led by ...

Any regions within the virus structure unique to Zika have the potential to explain differences in how a virus is transmitted and how it manifests as a disease, said Richard Kuhn, director of the ...

Scientists at Harvard Medical School and Boston University Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine have mapped a critical component of the Nipah virus, a highly lethal bat-borne pathogen that has ...

Influenza A virus (IAV) possesses a segmented, negative-sense RNA genome comprising eight distinct viral RNA (vRNA) segments. These segments form ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes that are selectively ...

Researchers have identified a previously unknown giant virus that may offer new insight into how complex life first evolved.

Now, Gilead has conducted an analysis of a phenomenon that can undermine all infectious disease therapies, including lenacapavir—HIV’s ability to evolve resistance to the breakthrough antiviral.
