Influenza A virus (IAV) possesses a segmented, negative-sense RNA genome comprising eight distinct viral RNA (vRNA) segments. These segments form ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes that are selectively ...
Grafting surface loops containing antibody epitopes of a poorly expressed flu neuraminidase protein onto a high-expressing, stable scaffold improves its production and stability for vaccine ...
Serious infections with influenza A viruses are characterized by an excessive immune response, known as cytokine storm. It ...
Experts at Johns Hopkins and across the country work together to better understand the behavior and characteristics of ...
Panel A shows dereplicated reads from wastewater virome sequencing assigned to H5N1 from all samples with a validated H5N1 signal aligned to a recently collected H5N1 2.3.4.4b reference sequence ...
Scientists in Switzerland have cracked open a century-old viral mystery by decoding the genome of the 1918 influenza virus from a preserved Zurich patient. This ancient RNA revealed that the virus had ...
California researchers say the world may be just one genetic tweak away from human-to-human transmission of the H5N1 bird flu virus — a worrisome mutation that could open the door to widespread human ...
As winter ends, several viruses are still continuing to rise across the U.S., according to data from WastewaterSCAN, a network of wastewater surveillance sites. Norovirus, one type of influenza, and ...
The amount of infectious H5N1 influenza viruses in raw milk rapidly declined with heat treatment in laboratory research. However, small, detectable amounts of infectious virus remained in raw milk ...
ApoD may represent a target for therapeutic intervention designed to protect against severe influenza virus infection in ...
