Variants of viruses, such as that causing COVID-19, can now be quickly studied in the laboratory, even before they emerge in nature and become a major public health challenge.The University of Queensland, QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute, Pe
In a recent study, Australian scientists used an original approach to resolve the 3D structure of flaviviruses with an unprecedented level of detail, identifying small molecules known as 'pocket factors' as new therapeutic targets.

The projecting spikes are a typical feature of immature flaviviruses such as dengue virus but reveal an unexpected organization. view more Credit: Associate Professor Fasseli Coulibaly Better designed vaccines for insect-spread viruses like dengue and Zika are likely after researchers discovered models of immature flavivirus particles were originally misinterpreted. Researchers from The University of Queensland and Monash University have now determined the first complete 3D molecular structure of the immature ...
