Journal of Virology (JVI) (ISSN: 0022-538X)

Description

Journal of Virology (JVI) explores the nature of viruses, reporting important new discoveries and pointing to new directions in research. Original research articles cover the viruses of animals, archaea, bacteria, fungi, plants, and protozoa. Among the key issues investigated are virus structure and assembly, viral genome replication and regulation of viral gene expression, viral genetic diversity and evolution, virus-cell interactions, cellular responses to viral infection, transformation and oncogenesis, gene delivery, viral pathogenesis and immunity, and vaccines and antiviral agents.
