In a recent study published in PLOS Pathogens, researchers reviewed the existing knowledge on the mechanisms through which deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) tumor viruses (DTVs) evade the antiviral immunity ...
Illinois researchers developed a nanorobotic hand made of DNA that can grab viruses for detection or inhibition. In this artist’s rendering, three “NanoGripper” hands wrap around a COVID-19 virus.
A tiny, four-fingered 'hand' folded from a single piece of DNA can pick up the virus that causes COVID-19 for highly sensitive rapid detection and can even block viral particles from entering cells to ...
