Book Description

This detailed book presents classical and cutting-edge techniques in molecular virology research. The volume begins with guidelines for investigating viral structure, proliferation processes, and virulence factors, followed by various approaches to identify key elements and molecular signaling pathways in virus-infected host cells that regulate virus-host interactions. Additional chapters explore methods for studying autophagy, post-translational modifications of virus and host proteins, epigenetic factors in anti-viral immune responses, and viral epidemiology. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
