Molecular and phylogenetic characterization of honey bee viruses, Nosema microsporidia, protozoan parasites, and parasitic mites in China [PDF]
China has the largest number of managed honey bee colonies, which produce the highest quantity of honey and royal jelly in the world; however, the presence of honey bee pathogens and parasites has never been rigorously identified in Chinese apiaries.

RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) natural antiviral inhibitors: a review
Viral diseases are the cause of many global epidemics, leading to deaths, affecting the quality of life of populations, and impairing public health. The limitations in the treatment of viral diseases and the constant resistance to conventional antiviral treatments encourage researchers to discover new compounds.

Photolyzable Polymer Brushes: Subtractive 3D Structuring of Surfaces Using Water and Light
Facile structuring of polymer brushes is achieved by flipping the process from controlled growth to controlled brush photolysis. Using surface‐initiated radical ring‐opening polymerization of cyclic monomers with photocleavable cyclobutane rings, photodegradable targets are embedded into the polymer chains. The enabled continuous subtractive patterning

Targeting RdRp of SARS-CoV-2 with De Novo Molecule Generation
Viruses are known for their extremely high mutation rates, allowing them to evade both the human immune system and many forms of standard medicine. Despite this, the RNA Dependent RNA Polymerase (RdRp) of the RNA viruses has been largely conserved, and any significant mutation to this protein is unlikely.

Rescue of a genotype 4 human hepatitis E virus from cloned cDNA and characterization of intergenotypic chimeric viruses in cultured human liver cells and in pigs [PDF]
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is an important but extremely understudied human pathogen. Genotypes 1 and 2 are restricted to humans, whereas genotypes 3 and 4 are zoonotic, infecting both humans and pigs.
