| Like all viruses, poxviruses co-opt various cellular molecules and processes to enter a cell, replicate and then spread to uninfected cells. |
| Poxviruses are structurally more complex than simple bacteria, despite their close resemblance. |
| Among the poxviruses are several species of orthopox-viruses that are pathogenic to humans, including monkeypox virus and variola virus. |
| He followed this achievement by showing how poxviruses express their genes and replicate their DNA in host cells. |
| The life cycle of poxviruses is complicated by having multiple infectious forms, with differing mechanisms of cell entry. |
| The new molecule can block the action of numerous virus including HIV-1, influenza A, filoviruses, poxviruses, arenaviruses, bunyaviruses, paramyxoviruses and flaviviruses. |
