Happy to share our latest work in Science Signalling highlighting the essential role of ion channels in KSHV replication. It highlights Kv1.3 as a potential druggable host factor for this oncogenic virus.

This week’s new issue of #ScienceSignaling has arrived!

A new study identifies a potential druggable host factor in KSHV infection, researchers identify a pathway disrupted by low glucose and oxygen that promotes inflammation, and more. https://t.co/rv36TMlJOh

Special thanks to Prof Adrienne Edkins and her team for being wonderful hosts. Brilliant to hear about all the fantastic work going on at Rhodes.

[BioBRU Lab @Bio_BRU]

Ending the visit to @Bio_BRU and @Rhodes_Uni in style with a brilliant talk by @WhitehouseLab on the mechanism of ribosome remodelling by viruses. Thanks to Ade and Freddy for a great visit

Pleasure to see @DrClintVeale at University of Cape Town yesterday. Thanks for hosting - great day. Onward to Rhodes university.

[Whitehouse Lab @WhitehouseLab]

Great to be in South Africa to catch up with collaborators at Rhodes @Bio_BRU and UCT @DrClintVeale

Some tired legs though, after hiking up and down Table mountain yesterday - amazing scenery.

[Andrew Macdonald @OncoVirus_Leeds]

We have a 3-year post doc available in the lab working on the roles of YAP and TAZ oncogenes in HPV+ cancers and the virus lifecycle. If you are a cell biologist/virologist and want to work in a collaborative, well-funded lab, join us! #HPV @ScienceLeeds
