How SARS-CoV-2 Alters the Regulation of Gene Expression in Infected Cells
Description
Nonstructural accessory proteins in viruses play a key role in hijacking the basic cellular mechanisms, which is essential to promote the virus survival and evasion of the immune system. The immonuglobulin-like open reading frame 8 (ORF8) protein
COVID-19 severity appears to be reduced in spring/summer
Description
CONCLUSIONS: COVID-19 may be less severe during spring/summer in hospitalized patients. This does not seem to be influenced by different SARS-CoV-2 viral load in the different periods considered. C-reactive protein was found to be lower whereas
Ultrafast Plasmonic Nucleic Acid Amplification and Real-Time Quantification for Decentralized Molecular Diagnostics
Description
Point-of-care real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) facilitates the widespread use of rapid, accurate, and cost-effective near-patient testing that is available to the public. Here, we report ultrafast plasmonic nucleic
