New insight into how the occludin protein mediates cell-to-cell transmission of SARS-CoV-2 virus

While the coronavirus continues to infect people around the world, researchers at the University of Missouri have identified a specific protein inside the human body that plays a critical role in how the virus spreads from cell to cell after infection - a discovery that will help better understand the COVID-19 disease and could lead to the development of new antiviral drugs in the future.

A dimensional reduction strategy for enhanced cryopreservation of red blood cells

Small amounts of nanometer-thin metal-organic layers efficiently protect red blood cells during freezing and thawing, as a team of researchers writing in the journal Angewandte Chemie has discovered. The nanolayers, made from metal-organic frameworks based on the metal hafnium, prevent ice crystal formation at very low concentrations. This effective novel cryoprotection mode could be used to develop new and more efficient cryoprotectants for the biosciences.
