New @wilsonlabcvr paper. Our work, led by @virologist_atu, showing that the prenylated variant of OAS1 can sense SARS-CoV-2 and protect against severe #COVID19 is out in Science:

Fantastic to finally see this out alongside @Lab_Rihn_th and @NardusMollentze. It's been a long journey involving so many people.

[PLOS Biology @PLOSBiology]

As well as targeting viral RNAs, @WilsonlabCVR @VirusMuser @lab_rihn_th @NardusMollentze &co show that antiviral effectors sometimes target host mRNAs too, leaving their mark after millions of years as compositional biases in the host's genome #PLOSBiology https://t.co/5yjhjfCzYr

New work from our @CVRinfo lab led by @virologist_atu revealing another innate immune 'defect' in horseshoe bats and linking this to why some people get more severe COVID-19:

@Virologica The RT-PCR values are typical of samples from which virus can be isolated. This, plus labelling for non-structural proteins (directly linked to replication) is good evidence that there was replication. Presumably it's similar to the 'tiger heart' observed in lambs.
