Ebola virus disease (EVD) is an acute life-threatening disease caused by highly pathogenic Ebolavirus (EBOV), with reported case fatality rates reaching 90%. There have been numerous EBOV outbreaks and epidemics since the first outbreak was reported ...

Predicting the evolutionary patterns of emerging and endemic viruses is key for mitigating their spread. In particular, it is critical to rapidly identify mutations with the potential for immune escape or increased disease burden. Knowing which circu...
BACKGROUND: Influenza A virus (IAV) is a major global health threat, causing seasonal epidemics and occasional pandemics. Particularly, Influenza A viruses from avian species pose significant zoonotic threats, with PB2 adaptation serving as a critica...
UNLABELLED: Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is the most common cancer in people living with HIV (PLWH), particularly in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), where Kaposi sarcoma herpesvirus (KSHV or human herpesvirus 8 [HHV-8]) is endemic. In KSHV endemic areas, the overal...

This study explores the role of intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) in the SARS-CoV-2 proteome and their potential as targets for small-molecule drug discovery. Experimentally validated intrinsic disordered regions from the literature were utiliz...
The vast majority of known viruses belong to the positive-sense single-stranded RNA (+ssRNA) class. Tobamoviruses are among the most destructive plant viruses and threaten global food security. It is generally accepted that +ssRNA viruses including t...
Viral diseases pose a significant threat to the sustainability of global aquaculture, causing economic losses and compromising food security. Traditional control methods often demonstrate limited effectiveness, highlighting the need for alternative a...
Bacteriophages (phages) are the most predominant and genetically diverse biological entities on Earth. Phages are viruses that infect bacteria and encode numerous proteins with potential biotechnological application. However, most phage-encoded prote...
The goal of this research work is to predict protein-protein interactions (PPIs) between the Ebola virus and the host who is at risk of infection. Since there are very limited databases available on the Ebola virus; we have prepared a comprehensive d...
Classification of viruses carries important implications in terms of understanding their evolution and the designing of interventions. This study introduces ViroNia as a novel LSTM-based system specifically meant for high-accuracy classification of v...
