Title: The parasite’s parasite: Exploring virophages’ antiviral strategies in developing current and novel antiviral therapies
Published in the Science and Engineering Journal, this review explores the fascinating world of virophages—subviral particles that parasitize giant viruses—and how their unique antiviral mechanisms could inspire new therapeutic approaches. From the well-studied Sputnik and Mavirus, the paper delves into how these virophages disrupt viral replication and what this could mean for the future of medicine.
