Cave Coronavirus in Wuhan Lab Seeded COVID – The Truth Has Always Been Out There, in the Genetics

PLOS: DNA Science

But the list leaves out the most likely scenario, which is where Chan’s discussion begins: the virus was present, or arose, more than a decade ago in a mineshaft in Yunnan Province in China and/or a cave in Laos – as a virus called RaTG13. Coincidence? I’ve never thought so. b) in an abandoned mine shaft? (c)

Codon Digest: Discovering Antibiotics with Deep Learning

Codon

The researchers first compared the editing efficiency of different versions of IscB when coupled with 'ωRNA,' which guides the enzyme to the right spot on the DNA. A particular variant, named IscB*-ωRNA*, had the highest editing efficiency across multiple different sites in the genome. Read more in Nature Methods.

Targeting a human protein may stop Ebola virus in its tracks

The Pharma Data

Back in 2018, researchers tested a broad-spectrum antiviral candidate called remdesivir/VEKLURY, which acts as a nucleotide decoy to get incorporated into the viral RNA genome and stop viral polymerase. Early in infection, it appears that host cellular proteins are in defense mode against Ebola virus polymerase and the viral genetic material.
