We developed a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine candidate (CoV-RBD121-NP) comprised of a tobacco mosaic virus-like nanoparticle conjugated to the receptor-binding domain of the spike glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2 fused to a human IgG1 Fc domain.

A novel approach for direct sensing of viral RNA is proposed, allowing PCR‐free detection of viral RNA from genomic material, and variants screening by discrimination of polymorphic amplicons. The device is a cost‐effective, user‐friendly platform suitable for both mass screening kits and as a laboratory tool for an optimized management of resources ...

Multiple Early Introductions of SARS-CoV-2 to Cape Town, South Africa
Cape Town was the first city in South Africa to experience the full impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. We acquired samples from all suspected cases and their contacts during the first month of the pandemic from Tygerberg Hospital.

The k‐mer‐based pipeline, namely the Pathogen Origin Recognition Tool using Enriched K‐mers (PORT‐EK) identifies genomic regions enriched in the respective hosts after the comparison of multi‐genomes of isolates between different host species. The enriched k‐mer counts, which may serve as a potential marker, enable the classification and prediction of ...

The SARS‐CoV‐2 frameshift element pseudoknot plays a crucial role in viral replication. Using various techniques, especially NMR spectroscopy and in vitro frameshift assays, we have developed and optimized chemical probes that serve as fundamental structures for potential inhibitors targeting viral RNAs.

Phylogenetic Study of 2019-nCoV by Using Alignment Free Method (Evolutionary Bifurcation of Novel Coronavirus Mutants) [PDF]
The phylogenetic tree of SARS-CoV-2 (nCov-19) viruses is reconstructed according to the similarity of genome sequences. The tree topology of Betacoronavirus is remarkably consistent with biologist's systematics. Because the tree construction contains enough information about virus mutants, it is suitable to study the evolutionary relationship between ...

Land Use Change and Infectious Disease Emergence
Abstract Major infectious diseases threatening human health are transmitted to people from animals or by arthropod vectors such as insects. In recent decades, disease outbreaks have become more common, especially in tropical regions, including new and emerging infections that were previously undetected or unknown. Even though there is growing awareness
