This comprehensive volume delves into diverse approaches to investigate various virus-host interactions in humans, other mammals, fish, or insects. It explores a wide range of viruses, including white spot syndrome virus (WSSV), honeybee viruses, Nipah virus, EBV, SVCV, HSV-1, HIV-1, A H1N1, and SARS-CoV-2, while also discussing the application of techniques such as quantitative PCR (qPCR), serum antibody responses, 4C analysis, cell membrane fusion, biosensors, computational modelling, quantitative proteomics, and other genetic tools to unravel these viral infections and interactions. Authored by renowned experts in the field, the chapters in this book provide introductions to their respective topics, comprehensive lists of necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and valuable tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Serving as a valuable resource for researchers across academia and the biosciences industry, Virus-Host Interactions: Methods and Protocols offers authoritative and practical insights into the search for a better understanding of threatening virus-host interactions, virus detection, characterization, and ultimately their taming and control.
