Targeting SARS-CoV-2 M protein may help ease severity of COVID-19

A new study, published on the medRxiv preprint server, focused on the production of human CD4+ T cell lines (TCLs), reactive to either S or M protein, and analyzed if the S and M structural proteins had intrinsic differences in driving antigen-specific CD4+ T cell responses.

SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant found to display increased resilience to antiviral type I interferon response

In a new study, scientists have compared the Omicron variant with the Delta VOC (B.1.617.2) as well as the wildtype strain (B.1), with respect to their interaction with the antiviral type 1 interferon response in infected cells.
