There’s a gene in our DNA that seems to come from an infection by an ancient virus—but no one knows its true purpose
You're walking around right now carrying the genetic fingerprints of infections that happened millions of years ago. Deep inside your cells, woven into the very fabric of your DNA, sit sequences that ...
Scientists at the University of Vienna, Austria, have screened great ape specimens obtained from natural history museums to identify DNA viruses. This groundbreaking study provides unique insights ...
A tiny, four-fingered "hand" folded from a single piece of DNA can pick up the virus that causes COVID-19 for highly sensitive rapid detection and can even block viral particles from entering cells to ...
Illinois researchers developed a nanorobotic hand made of DNA that can grab viruses for detection or inhibition. In this artist’s rendering, three “NanoGripper” hands wrap around a COVID-19 virus.
Ushikuvirus is a newly identified giant virus that infects amoebas, adding to a growing group of oversized viruses that scientists believe may have played an important role in the emergence of complex ...
DNA scaffolds that mirror influenza virus protein geometry boost antiviral binding and reduce infection more effectively than free molecules, enabling a modular antiviral design strategy. (Nanowerk ...
Researchers use cryo-EM and optical tweezers to investigate how an antiviral interacts with the herpes simplex virus.
