Comprehensive Map of the SARS-CoV-2 Genome

Cambridge, MA — In early 2020, a few months after the Covid-19 pandemic began, scientists were able to sequence the full genome of the virus that causes the infection, SARS-CoV-2. While many of its...

SARS-CoV-2 Curtails Immune Response in the Gut

Cambridge, UK — In an effort to determine the potential for COVID-19 to begin in a person’s gut, and to better understand how human cells respond to SARS-CoV-2, the scientists used human intestinal...

Nanobodies Inhibit SARS-CoV-2 Infection

Parkville, Australia — Australian researchers have identified neutralising nanobodies that block the SARS-CoV-2 virus from entering cells in preclinical models. The discovery paves the way for further...

T Cells Recognize Recent SARS-CoV-2 Variants

Bethesda, MD — When variants of SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19) emerged in late 2020, concern arose that they might elude protective immune responses generated by prior infection or vaccination,...

Protein Fingerprinting in Minutes

Berlin, Germany — Researchers from Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin and the Francis Crick Institute have developed a mass spectrometry-based technique capable of measuring samples containing...

‘Silencing’ Protein to Weaken COVID-19

Oeiras, Portugal — When invaded by a virus, our body cells launch an alert to neighbouring cells to increase their antiviral defenses to prevent the infection from spreading. Some viruses, however,...

New Corona Test Developed

Leipzig, Germany — Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is the most widely used diagnostic method to detect RNA viruses such as SARS-CoV-2. However, it requires expensive laboratory...
