Novel RNA viruses in oysters revealed by virome
iMeta, Volume 1, Issue 4, December 2022., 2022 Eighteen novel RNA viruses were found in Crassostrea hongkongensis. Phylogenic analysis shows evidence of recombination between major genes of viruses. Picobirnaviruses are ubiquitous and abundant in oysters.

Controlling Size and Surface Chemistry of Cationic Nanogels by Inverse Microemulsion ATRP
Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics, Volume 224, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Cationic nanogels are prepared by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) under inverse microemulsion conditions of a hydrophilic inimer that prevents monomer diffusion and hence limits droplets’ growth during polymerization. The surface functionality of the nanogels is modulated by the application of hydrophobic reactive surfactants or grafting ...

RdRp inhibitors and COVID-19: Is molnupiravir a good option?
Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2022 Rapid changes in the viral genome allow viruses to evade threats posed by the host immune response or antiviral drugs, and can lead to viral persistence in the host cells. RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) is an essential enzyme in RNA viruses, which is involved in RNA synthesis through the formation of phosphodiester bonds.

Polyacrylic Acid Copolymers as Adhesion‐Adapted Model Materials for Cleaning Tests
Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics, Volume 224, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Acrylic acid (AA) copolymers adhere physically to metallic surfaces and are used for production of layers which shall mimic real filmic contamination layers for cleaning tests. To further adjust the polymers to the reference contaminations the polarity of the copolymers is varied not only by the percentage of carboxy groups but also by additional ...

Importance of Zika Virus NS5 Protein for Viral Replication
Pathogens, 2019 Zika virus is the latest addition to an ever-growing list of arboviruses that are causing outbreaks with serious consequences. A few mild cases were recorded between 1960 and 1980 until the first major outbreak in 2007 on Yap Island. This was followed by

The potential of Paritaprevir and Emetine as inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 RdRp
Saudi Journal of Biological Sciences, 2021 Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) is a well-characterized therapeutic target which is a key player driving the viral replication and transcription machinery. The recent elucidation of the experimental structure of SARS-CoV-2 RdRp enzyme complexed with triphosphate form of Remdesivir (RTP ...
