The structure of Tick-borne Encephalitis virus determined at X-Ray Free-Electron Lasers. Simulations [PDF]
Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, 30, 24-34 (2023), 2022 The study of the structure of viruses by X-ray free-electron lasers (XFEL) attracts more attention in recent decades. Such experiments are based on the collection of two-dimensional diffraction patterns measured at the detector after diffraction of femtosecond X-ray pulses on biological samples.

Heterologous autoimmunity and prokaryotic immune defense [PDF]
Current Biology 2022, 2021 Some prokaryotes possess CRISPR-Cas systems that provide adaptive immunity to viruses guided by DNA segments called spacers acquired from invading phage. However, the patchy incidence and limited memory breadth of CRISPR-Cas systems suggest that their fitness benefits are offset by costs.
