Could today's single-stranded RNA viruses be descendants of ... an endosymbiotic-like event in which a complex, enveloped DNA virus became a permanent resident of an emerging eukaryotic cell.

Boiling Springs Lake RNA–DNA hybrid virus (BSL RDHV, for short) is a single-stranded DNA virus with a circular genome, identified in acidic lake samples in Boiling Springs Lake in Lassen Volcanic ...

To create their viral traps, the team started with a single-stranded DNA molecule that was either synthesized or derived from a bacteriophage virus. They mixed this DNA with shorter, synthetic DNA ...

A standard virus consists of a protein shell holding genes that are encoded either in double-stranded DNA or single-stranded RNA. But scientists are finding that our bodies are also home to ...

but viruses have different kinds of structure — there are DNA genomes, RNA genomes, double-stranded, single-stranded …" Anantharaman told Live Science. That some virus types contain just RNA ...

Geminiviruses, which are single-stranded DNA viruses infecting a range of economically important crop species (e.g., cassava, maize, cotton and tomato) in tropical and subtropical regions ...

As viral vaccines are increasingly used to meet global health needs, the pharmaceutical industry is manufacturing larger ...

DNA vaccines contain the nucleotides encoding an antigenic portion of the virus such as the viral ... and transcribed in the nucleus (1). The single stranded mRNA (2) is translated into protein ...

After entering an immune cell, HIV's single-stranded RNA genome is reverse-transcribed into double-stranded DNA, which is how our cells store genetic information. The virus' genome is incorporated ...

They then combined a single piece of DNA from one virus with another strand from the other virus type. The lactose gene segments of DNA were chemically complementary and combined easily into a ...
