Hepatitis B virus (HBV) contains a partially double-stranded DNA genome. During infection, its replication is mediated by reverse transcription (RT) of an RNA intermediate termed pregenomic RNA (pgRNA ...
We’re all mostly human. 8% of your genome comes from viruses. In A Nutshell Scientists captured the first detailed images of ...
A single modification in the protein found on the surface of the highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 influenza virus currently circulating in U.S. dairy cows could allow for easier ...
Scientists at the Baylor College of Medicine say they have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model that reveals how protein modifications link genetic mutations to disease. The method, called ...
Scientists in Jennifer Doudna’s lab at Gladstone Institutes and the Innovative Genomics Institute provide novel insights into nearly 70,000 lesser-known viral proteins that could eventually help in ...
Lactylation, a recently identified post-translational modification, has emerged as important for immune regulation, tissue repair, cancer cell metabolism, and now, potentially, Alzheimer’s disease. In ...
