Aug. 19, 2024 — The avian influenza virus needs to mutate to cross the species barrier and to infect and replicate within mammalian cells. Scientists have now deciphered the structure of the ...

In the new study, researchers homed in on a part of the viral machinery called the viral polymerase complex, a group of proteins the virus uses to copy its genetic material, spread, and infect cells.

These researchers use high-resolution imaging techniques to examine a virus’s molecular structure—and uncover where a virus is vulnerable to new therapies. In a new Cell study, scientists in LJI’s ...
