Levers for Biological Progress

Codon

Scientists are already building a model that can, for example, look at which RNA molecules are expressed in a cell at t=0 and predict how those molecules will change at t=1. SeqFISH, developed by Long Cai’s group at Caltech, maps the spatial positions of thousands of RNA, DNA, or protein molecules within single cells.

Targeting a human protein may stop Ebola virus in its tracks

The Pharma Data

To treat Ebola virus infections, researchers are taking a close look at a key piece of the virus: polymerase. Polymerase is a viral protein that directs how Ebola virus replicates its genome as it infects new hosts. Drugs that target polymerase could potentially treat Ebola virus infections and save lives.

High-Content Imaging siRNA Screens Identify Trafficking Factors in Alphavirus Infection

PerkinElmer

The complex relationship between a virus and its host is one of the hottest topics in science right now, and has been given considerable attention in recent weeks as a result of the race to understand the virus that causes COVID-19 and its potential vulnerabilities.

Phages could help to tackle antimicrobial resistance

Drug Target Review

Researchers from the Laboratory of Bacteriology at The Rockefeller University have now found that bacteria sense phages by a defensive response named CBASS (cyclic oligonucleotide-based antiphage signalling system) which detects viral RNA. The novel, hairpin-shaped molecule was named cabRNA for CBASS-activating bacteriophage RNA.
