The first step for a virus to invade a cell is to cross the cell's plasma membrane, which is a lipid barrier. In general, a virus consists of one or more layers of protein that enclose its viral ...

Researchers have discovered a virus that could enter human cells in a similar way to COVID-19. But they caution it's much ...

A newly discovered bat coronavirus uses the same cell-surface protein to gain entry into human cells as the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19, raising the possibility that it could someday spread ...

to merge their membrane with the host cell’s membrane. This allows the virus to enter the cell and start multiplying. Dr Isaacs said the next step in this research is to study the important ...

Supercomputer simulations have revealed how changes in the shape of the HIV-1 capsid protein may help the virus squeeze its inner core into the host cell's nuclear membrane. The findings ...

Biotherapeutics announced promising preclinical results for its systemic RTNova platform. The platform has successfully delivered ...

the virus that causes AIDS – to find out. This transmission electron microscopy image shows HIV viral particles (yellow) near the end of the budding process; the cell they’ve infected is in blue.
