The recently emerged SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant encodes 37 amino acid substitutions in
the spike protein, 15 of which are in the receptor-binding domain (RBD), thereby raising …

Whereas domestication of livestock, pets, and crops is well documented, it is still unclear to
what extent microbes associated with the production of food have also undergone human …

VIR-7831 and VIR-7832 are dual action monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) targeting the spike
glycoprotein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). VIR-7831 …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an antibiotic-refractory pathogen with a large genome and
extensive genotypic diversity. Historically, P. aeruginosa has been a major model system for …

Investigating the mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 cellular infection is key to better understand
COVID-19 immunity and pathogenesis. Infection, which involves both cell attachment and …

SARS-CoV-2 infection—which involves both cell attachment and membrane fusion—relies
on the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor, which is paradoxically found at low …

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Omicron sublineages carry
