RNA Polymerase Mutation Stabilizes Live Virus Vaccines
A team of molecular virologists has developed a more effective method for attenuating the replicative capabilities of the coxsackievirus and is using this platform to develop a vaccine for it and other positive-sense single-stranded RNA viruses, a group that includes poliovirus, dengue, and Zika.

Mitochondrial Replication Mechanism Identified
The mechanism that controls division of mitochondria and replication of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) during the process of mitosis has been shown to be localized at sites where the mitochondria are in contact with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). More...26 Jul 2016
New Model Boosts Development of Drugs to Treat Toxoplasmosis
A novel model system to facilitate development of drugs to treat toxoplasmosis and other parasitic infections is based on a strain of Toxoplasma gondii that produces cysts in vitro that mimic those found in living animals. More...26 Jul 2016
