Journal Descriptions

Reflecting the full breadth of research on bacteria, fungi, parasites, prions and viruses, PLOS Pathogens publishes outstanding original research and commentary that significantly advance the understanding of pathogens and how they interact with their host organisms. PLOS Pathogens is a community-driven and Open Access journal publishing ground-breaking work that significantly advances our understanding of pathogen biology or pathogen-host interactions. We welcome outstanding original research covering the full breadth of pathogens, including viruses, bacteria, parasites, fungi, and prions, as well as co-infections and microbial communities in disease. The journal publishes work with a strong emphasis on discovery that informs our understanding of pathogenesis or pathogen biology. Emerging topics and early observations that are of urgent importance or represent a dramatic step forward in understanding are also encouraged. Topics can include, but are not limited to, molecular and cellular host responses to infection, cell biology of infection, pathogen evolution, adaptive and innate immunity to infection, microbiome and pathogen interactions, reservoirs and emerging pathogens, genomics and gene regulation, structural biology, therapeutics and drug resistance, pathogen-associated cancers, and vaccines. We publish commissioned reviews, opinions, and editorials, and welcome primary research submissions including laboratory and clinical studies. Submissions that report computational analysis or resources along with experimental validation and meet the journal’s criteria for advance, utility, validation, and availability, will also be considered.

EBNA3C Augments Pim-1 Mediated Phosphorylation and Degradation of p21 to Promote B-Cell Proliferation
Shuvomoy Banerjee August, 2014
Epstein–Barr virus (EBV), a ubiquitous human herpesvirus, can latently infect the human population. EBV is associated with several types of malignancies originating from lymphoid and epith...
The EBV Latent Antigen 3C Inhibits Apoptosis through Targeted Regulation of Interferon Regulatory Factors 4 and 8
Shuvomoy Banerjee May, 2013
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is linked to a broad spectrum of B-cell malignancies. EBV nuclear antigen 3C (EBNA3C) is an encoded latent antigen required for growth transformation of primary huma...
