Flaviviruses, which cause insect-borne diseases such as dengue, West Nile virus, and yellow fever, have long stumped scientists trying to understand their molecular structure. No more, say ...

Researchers have shown that the dengue virus has the ability to alter its structure to evade a host’s immune response, existing vaccines and therapeutics.

A group of American scientists have unveiled the first three-dimensional structure of the dengue virus, opening new avenues for research into how the virus is transmitted, and hopefully how to ...

Viruses are tiny agents that can infect a variety of living organisms, including bacteria, plants, and animals. Like other viruses, the dengue virus is a microscopic structure that can only ...

The structure of the mature dengue virus particle was determined last year by Michael Rossmann and Richard Kuhn's team. The virus' surface is unusually smooth and its membrane is completely ...

A near-atomic level map of Zika virus shows its structure to be largely similar to that of dengue virus and other flaviviruses, but with a notable difference in one key surface protein. The ...

A group of American scientists have unveiled the first three-dimensional structure of the dengue virus, opening new avenues for research into how the virus is transmitted, and hopefully how to ...
