Molecular glues, tiny molecules that connect one protein to another, are promising targets for pharmaceutical research. By ...

The thousands of Egyptian fruit bats (Rousettus aegyptiacus) found in this cave are known carriers of one of the world's deadliest viruses: Marburg, a close cousin of Ebola. Subscribe to ... or ...

The group used cryo-electron tomography of cells transfected with viral proteins, and infected with model Ebola virus, to illuminate assembly intermediates.

Researchers have detailed the structure of the Ebola virus nucleocapsid using cryo-electron tomography. This discovery could guide the development of universal antiviral therapies targeting multiple ...

Ebola is a highly transmissible disease but its spread can be prevented through behavioural measures.

Ebola virus polymerase hijacks a cellular protein called GSPT1. An experimental drug that targets GSPT1 for degradation can also halt Ebola virus infection in human cells.

Several proteins have been identified in hosts that interact with Ebola virus and primarily function to inhibit the production of viral genetic material in cells and prevent Ebola virus infection ...

The new study shows how one of Ebola virus's key proteins, VP40, uses molecular triggers in the human cell to transform itself into different tools for different jobs.

A new study shows how one of Ebola virus's key proteins, VP40, uses molecular triggers in the human cell to transform itself into different tools for different jobs.

A coiling protein “shell,” called a nucleocapsid, shown here, surrounds Ebola’s genetic material, which consists of single-strand RNA. University of Delaware researchers are simulating the way ...
