Modeling Attachment Factor Used in Flaviviral Entry

"Flavivirus is a genus of positive-sense single-stranded RNA viruses that are mostly transmitted through mosquito or tick vectors and are known to be emerging and re-emerging viruses. Some of the significant species that have been reported to cause an outbreak globally include DENV, YFV, WNV, ZIKV and JEV. While some vaccines have been successful in preventing infections caused by certain f…

Exploration Of Bat Virus Attachment On Brain Cells

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) have garnered attention in virology due to their potential in mitigating lyssavirus attachment to brain cells. Recent studies highlight heparin's ability to impede viral attachment to heparan sulfate, suggesting its role in preventing viral entry. Pseudoviruses have been utilized as safer alternatives in lyssavirus research, generated through co-transfection of plasmid…
