The herpesvirus can manipulate our DNA with far more precision than previously thought. The virus condenses and changes the shape of our genetic material to hijack the host genes needed for ...

It starts quietly, a bite or a scratch, and by the time symptoms surface, it’s often too late. Rabies isn’t just a distant threat—it’s alive and present here in Alabama. Prevention remains critical, ...

Single-cell analysis helps uncover how the BK virus replicates, opening the door to new drug targets. BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) is a major cause of kidney transplant failure. Without a complete ...

Researchers at Utah State University have reported a previously unrecognised CRISPR immune response in which a bacterial ...

For the first time, scientists have captured how new antiviral drugs halt the herpes virus in real time as it tries to ...

Prevention remains critical; but once symptoms appear, treatment options are extremely limited. Because rabies hides behind a complex molecular shield, it is nearly impossible to fight. “For more than ...
