Despite major differences in the life cycles of the seven different classes of known viruses, the genome-replication processes of certain positive-strand RNA viruses, double-stranded RNA viruses ...

Double-stranded RNA viruses -- which include the rotavirus that kills about one million children a year in developing countries -- separates its strands and copies one to replicate itself.

ADAR1 will act on viral double-stranded RNA as readily as human RNA. The protein changes viral double-stranded RNA to single strands, therefore protecting some viruses from immune detection.

How the body fights against viruses Date: April 22, 2014 Source: University of Vienna Summary: Scientists have shown how double stranded RNA is prevented from entering the nucleus of a cell.

RNA viruses — including coronaviruses — have genetic material consisting of a single ribonucleic acid (RNA) strand, as opposed to double-stranded DNA in DNA viruses, like Herpes viruses.

09 Jul 2021. A telltale sign of viral invasion, double-stranded RNA sounds cellular alarm bells that touch off a firestorm of interferon. According to a paper published July 7 in Science Translational ...

Analyzing Double-Stranded RNA Impurities in mRNA Samples July 5, 2023. By Vivienne Raper, PhD ... “The reason we care about dsRNA is that it can be found in viruses, ...

Such a diagnostic would still require separate work and probably involve collecting saliva or a nasal sample from a patient to be mixed with the team's modified Cas12a2 protein, the piece of guide RNA ...
