Coronavirus Disguises Its mRNAs Using a Cap-Modifying Enzyme
The mRNAs expressed by SARS-CoV-2 can pass as human mRNAs without too much difficulty. All the viral mRNAs have to do is modify the cap

When the Black Death arrived in London by January 1349, the city had been waiting with dread for months. Londoners had heard reports of devastation
For some COVID-19 patients, the body’s immune response may be as destructive as the virus that causes the disease. The persistent high fevers, severe respiratory
Lying in bed on the night of 10 January, scrolling through news on his smartphone, Andrew Mesecar got an alert. He sat up. It was
Highlights •Measuring immunity to SARS-CoV-2 is key for understanding COVID19 and vaccine development •Epitope pools detect CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in 100 and 70% of convalescent
Using tiny brainlike structures grown in a lab dish, researchers have found new evidence that a common virus responsible for cold sores might also be a
Immune warriors known as T cells help us fight some viruses, but their importance for battling SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, has been unclear.
One of the oldest vaccines could protect us against our newest infectious disease, COVID-19. The vaccine has been given to babies to protect them against
Like so many countries, Iceland, with its population of 364,000 inhabitants, has been stricken by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). From 13 January
