My family had to move 4 times in and outside of Gaza City after Israel destroyed their house and they ran out of water . They are now being carpet bombed in Rafah-the very area they were told was safe. When will this end?

Why HIV-2 infection reduces HIV-1 pathogenesis in dual-infected patients? HIV-2 blocks HIV-1 through a) an interferon response; b) an HIV1-specific block conferred by HIV-2 TAR, suppressing HIV-1 transcription by stalling RNApol II at the promoter journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/jv…

New day, new sessions International Workshop on Retroviral Pathogenesis MUSE_Museum

Great talk by Hanna-Mari Baldauf Lab comparing antiviral activity of Guanyl-binding proteins of 🧒🐭 🐰! GBP2 & GBP5 are some of my fave restriction factors bc both are activated by retroviral LTRs as Smitha Srinivasachar Badarinarayan showed nicely before #RetroPath academic.oup.com/nar/article/48…

YES! 💯Thanks Massimo and all who helped organize #RetroPath. What a blast it was! A few intense days of amazing 🦠 science in a stunning spot. I’ve learned a ton and made a bunch of new friends! 🥰

Mucosal antibodies in people with infection, not in vaccinated-only individuals. This is a correlate of protection from infection, although not fully validated thelancet.com/journals/ebiom… Great work, based on paired nasal and blood sampling

Very excited by our results nature showing that IL4R signaling is strongly enriched in myeloid cells that infiltrate mice and lung cancer lesions nature.com/articles/s4158…

🔥🔥How does the LINE-1 retrotransposon jump around in the human genome? Super excited to present my postdoctoral work answering this published today nature together with twitterless Kathy Collins's lab and The Nogales Lab UC Berkeley nature.com/articles/s4158… A 🧵

🔔'Tis the season...to apply for a new job?! My group Medicine at Cambridge is recruiting for 2 posts: Postdoc: jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/44181/ Research assistant: jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/44250/ Both roles will seek to improve our understanding of coronavirus cross-species transmission. #preparedness

“Transposable elements contribute to nearly 80% of human-specific candidate cis-regulatory elements in cortical cells” 🧠 …🤯 literally! Amazing dataset 🔥 Congrats to all involved! nature.com/articles/s4158…

How big is Africa, in reality.

Looking for a motivated postdoctoral research scientist with cryo-EM and biochemistry experience to join our group to study virus-host interactions and coevolution. We benefit from a great environment @MRC_LMB Medicine at Cambridge Cambridge University jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/43440/

Cornell Molecular Biology and Genetics department Cornell MBG has an open call for faculty applicants. Interested candidates please apply. All others please RT. Without a shadow of doubt I have loved it here. academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/26845

No fruit bats are not magic animals that do not suffer disease consequences of bacterial and viral infections (pathology studies like these are very painstaking to perform) sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

The HUSH complex guards vertebrate genomes from retroelements. Our new structural/biochemical study on MPP8 reveals the interaction interface with TASOR required for HUSH assembly & suggests links between HUSH & SUMO doi.org/10.1101/2023.1… Danya Prigozhin Medicine at Cambridge @MRC_LMB

I couldn't have ended the year with a better gift than to be able to broadly share the main story of my PhD work, recently published in PNASNews. We found that #PCF11 associates with #WDR82 to silence HIV-1 in latently infected cells. Full article ➡️ doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…

LINE-1 is associated with disease and aging. The Rout Lab has uncloaked the core of its key protein, pointing the way towards therapeutic targets. #RockefellerScience rockefeller.edu/news/35133-rev…
