A diverse range of gene products are effectors of the type I interferon antiviral response

TL;DR: It is shown that different viruses are targeted by unique sets of ISGs, and that each viral species is susceptible to multiple antiviral genes, which together encompass a range of inhibitory activities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Corrigendum: A diverse range of gene products are effectors of the type I interferon antiviral response.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the WNV-GFP stock used in the data set (Fig. 2 and Supplementary Table 8 of the original Letter) for West Nile virus (WNV) in this Letter was actually Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV)-GFP.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nef Proteins from Simian Immunodeficiency Viruses Are Tetherin Antagonists

TL;DR: It is shown that the apparently "missing" antitetherin activity in SIVs has been acquired by several SIV Nef proteins, and a critical determinant of sensitivity to SIV(MAC) Nef in the tetherin cytoplasmic tail is variable in nonhuman primate tetherins and deleted in human tetherin, likely due to selective pressures imposed by viral antagonists.

Improvements to the ARTIC multiplex PCR method for SARS-CoV-2 genome sequencing using nanopore

TL;DR: An updated primer scheme with 22 additional primers to improve genome coverage and cost savings which bring the reagent cost down to £10 per sample making it practical for individual labs to sequence thousands of SARS-CoV-2 genomes to support national and international genomic epidemiology efforts.
