Microscopy techniques are often exploited by virologists to investigate molecular details of critical steps in viruses’ life cycles such as host cell recognition and entry, genome replication, intracellular trafficking, and release of mature virions. Fluorescence microscopy is the most attractive tool employed to detect intracellular localizations of various stages of the viral infection and monitor the pathogen‐host interactions associated with them. Super‐resolution microscopy techniques have… Expand

Single-Molecule Localization Microscopy in Eukaryotes.
TLDR
How SMLM has contributed new knowledge in eukaryotic biology is described, and the potential to pave the way toward a better understanding of how cells function at the molecular level is described. Expand
How Computational Models Enable Mechanistic Insights into Virus Infection.
TLDR
It is argued that modeling and computer simulation, combined with mechanistic insights, yields unprecedented deep understanding of phenomena in biology and especially in virus infections by providing a way of showing sufficiency of a hypothetical mechanism. Expand
A lipidomic concept in infectious diseases
TLDR
Future lipidomics studies are the basic for detecting the lipid role in host-pathogen relations which help in therapy advances and biomarkers development. Expand

Shedding Light on Filovirus Infection with High-Content Imaging
TLDR
The current practical constraints limiting the implementation of high-throughput biology in a BSL-4 environment are discussed, and possible solutions to safely perform high-content, high-Throughput filovirus infection assays are proposed. Expand
Viral life cycles captured in three-dimensions with electron microscopy tomography
TLDR
By combining high-resolution structures of individual proteins and macrocomplexes obtained by crystallography and electron cryomicroscopy and image reconstruction with reconstructions performed on subtomographic volumes, electron tomography has advanced the structural and mechanistic understanding of virus infections both in vitro and in host cells.

Imaging Poliovirus Entry in Live Cells
TLDR
Surprisingly, it is observed that genome release by PV is highly efficient and rapid, and thus does not limit the overall infectivity or the infection rate, and this imaging assay is broadly applicable to the investigation of entry mechanisms for nonenveloped viruses. Expand
Tracking viral genomes in host cells at single-molecule resolution.
TLDR
A noninvasive protocol for accurate quantification of viral DNA-genome (vDNA) trafficking in single cells is developed and offers opportunities to localize cellular and viral effector machineries on newly replicated viral DNA, or innate immune sensors on cytoplasmic viral DNA. Expand
In Vivo Bioluminescent Imaging of Influenza A Virus Infection and Characterization of Novel Cross-Protective Monoclonal Antibodies
TLDR
The development of a stable, replication-competent luciferase reporter influenza A virus that can be used for in vivo imaging of viral replication and provides a new quantitative method to evaluate future antiviral therapies is reported. Expand

Highly Sensitive Real-Time In Vivo Imaging of an Influenza Reporter Virus Reveals Dynamics of Replication and Spread
TLDR
A replication-competent influenza reporter virus suitable for in vivo imaging is created that recapitulates known restrictions due to host range and antiviral treatment, suggesting that this technology can be applied to studying emerging influenza viruses and the impact of antiviral interventions on infections in vivo.

Structural analysis of HIV-1 and host-cell interactions by means of a correlative high-speed 3D live-cell-imaging and cryoET method and direct evidence to suggest that a hyperstable mutant capsid, E45A, showed delayed capsid disassembly compared to the wild-type capsid is reported. Expand
Multi-spectral fluorescent reporter influenza viruses (Color-flu) as powerful tools for in vivo studies
TLDR
This work generates influenza viruses expressing fluorescent proteins of different colours (‘Color-flu’ viruses) to facilitate the study of viral infection in in vivo models and uses this system to analyse the progression of viral spread in mouse lungs. Expand
