Revving up COVID mRNA vaccines: Algorithm generates 128-fold increase in antibodies

Research paper proposes a new method for predicting highly expressed genes based on codon usage bias and minimum free energy of mRNA secondary structures. The method involves constructing a stochastic grammar that generates sequences with high CAI and low MFE, and testing it on two mRNA vaccines.

Wildlife in Britain found free of SARS-CoV-2, but novel virus discovered in stoats

Scientists in the United Kingdom have conducted a large-scale screening for sarbecoviruses and pan-coronaviruses in British Wildlife to investigate the occurrence of widespread spillover events. They have identified a novel minacovirus in stoats recently introduced to the Orkney Islands.

Study finds school-household network key to understanding disease transmission in children

Study aimed to investigate the transmission of respiratory infections among children in schools and households. The results showed that schools play a significant role in transmission within study years, while households play a significant role in transmission between study years and between primary and secondary schools.

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.
