Researchers perform massive and detailed cellular energy audit

TK Adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, is the cellular energy currency that is as valuable to the human body as the dollar is to the US economy. Too high or too low levels of ATP in some cell types have been linked to a variety of diseases.

New cellular pathway can protect cells from infection by Ebola virus, coronavirus

Discoveries from the Benaroya Research Institute at Virginia Mason (BRI) have identified a new cellular protection pathway that targets a common vulnerability in several different pandemic viruses, and collaborators at Case Western Reserve University, Boston University School of Medicine and MRIGlobal have shown that this pathway can protect cells from infection by Ebola virus and coronaviruses, like SARS-CoV-2.

Scientists advance genetic understanding of the tree of life

The African baobab tree (Adansonia digitata) is called the tree of life. Baobab trees can live for more than a thousand years and provide food, livestock fodder, medicinal compounds, and raw materials. Baobab trees are incredibly significant. However, there are growing conservation concerns and until now, a lack of genetic information

Researchers to launch clinical trials to test potential COVID-19 drug

A group of scientists from the University of Alberta is preparing to initiate clinical trials of a drug used for treating a lethal disease caused by the novel coronavirus in cats.

Study sheds light on the function of ribosome binding sites

Genome sequencing of plants, bacteria, and even human beings has turned out to be a standard process, but despite this fact, the genome continues to raise several unanswered questions.

Study shows how two proteins interact to produce functioning barrier at tricellular contacts

Organs in animals and in humans have one thing in common: they are bounded by so-called epithelial cells. These, along with the muscle, connective, and nervous tissues, belong to the basic types of tissue.

Drug-like compounds previously developed to fight SARS may also work against COVID-19

An extensive search and testing of current drugs and drug-like compounds have revealed compounds previously developed to fight SARS might also work against COVID-19.

28 Aug 2020

First lethal mouse model established for COVID-19 infection

Army scientists have developed the first lethal mouse model of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, using mice that were genetically engineered to express the human ACE2 gene--a key mechanism by which the virus enters human cells.

Scientists identify antigen valencies that work best in vaccine designs for HIV, SARS-CoV-2

Designing a vaccine starts with finding the right ingredients. Every infectious agent has molecules, called antigens, that the immune system could potentially recognize and attack. So scientists must carefully consider which antigens should go into a vaccine.
