People in the field have been looking for this structure for a long time, he emphasized, and the advance is "really exciting for us." Ebola virus is a "clever little thing," said Erica Ollmann Saphire ...

Structural basis for Ebola virus nucleocapsid assembly and function regulated by VP24. Nature Communications, 2025; 16 (1) DOI: 10.1038/s41467-025-57236-4 ...

The Sudan and Ebola viruses both come from the orthoebolavirus family, but they have different proteins and genetic components, so the immune response to each virus is different.

In other words, UVa is not keeping the Ebola virus in its labs. “We use yeast as a living test tube,” Engel said. This is one of many angles researchers are examining as they search for a cure.

Targeting Ebola virus—and more As Watanabe explains, targeting the nucleocapsid spells game over for the virus. “If you don’t have a nucleocapsid, nothing can happen. That’s the core of the virus,” ...

Researchers at La Jolla Institute for Immunology have detailed the structure of the Ebola virus nucleocapsid using cryo-electron tomography. This discovery could guide the development of universal ...

Ebola virus polymerase is already known as a hard-working protein—all Ebola viral proteins have to be. Ebola virus is a highly efficient pathogen because it gets by with just seven genes (humans ...

While the overall structure of the Ebola glycoprotein has been known for some time, one region had yet to be modeled effectively - the β17-β18 loop on the protein's glycan cap.

GENEVA ― Following a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials of the disease's therapeutics, the World Health Organization (WHO) has made strong recommendations for two ...
