Viruses and DNA, illustration
Conceptual image for interaction between viruses and host-cell DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). Integration of viruses into DNA is the key step in oncogenesis. Several viruses, such as hepatitis B virus, papillomavirus and other, can integrate into host DNA as insertional mutagens causing the activation of a cellular proto-oncogene which eventually leads to uncontrolled cell multiplication and cancer development

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Viruses and DNA" showcases a mesmerizing illustration that delves into the intricate interaction between viruses and host-cell DNA. Serving as a conceptual image, it sheds light on the crucial step of viral integration into DNA, which plays a pivotal role in oncogenesis - the formation of cancer. The artwork highlights how certain viruses like hepatitis B virus and papillomavirus can act as insertional mutagens, causing disruptions within the host's genetic material. This disturbance triggers the activation of cellular proto-oncogenes, ultimately leading to uncontrolled cell multiplication and the development of cancerous growths. With its horizontal composition, this thought-provoking piece invites viewers to explore the profound implications that these interactions have on human health. It serves as a reminder of both the fragility and resilience inherent in our biological systems. Created by talented artist Kateryna Kon for Science Photo Libra, this print seamlessly merges science with artistry. Its presence is not only visually striking but also carries immense educational value for those interested in biology or healthcare-related fields
