— Technology Description
A team of Washington University researchers has developed a low-cost molecular diagnostics kit and reader that could provide rapid, widespread screening and surveillance for SARS-CoV-2 and other infections. This technology utilizes a reverse-transcription loop-mediated isot…
— The creators used homologous gene recombination to delete the gene encoding inositol phosphoryl ceramide synthase (IPCS) from the genome of the protozoan parasite Leshmania major.
— This is a large panel of variants in the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein incorporated into a VSV-vector. These were largely selected as escape mutants to neutralizing antibodies or were designed to probe the function of circulating viral variants. These constructs can be used to screen antibodies and solub…
— Cyanobacterial strains, including one with the highest productivity of sucrose in cyanobacteria to date.
Lin, P. C., Zhang, F., & Pakrasi, H. B. (2020). Enhanced production of sucrose in the fast-growing cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus UTEX 2973. Scientific reports, 10(1), 1-8.
— This VSV-SARS1 chimeric virus is a biosafety level 2 reporter of SARS COV 1 infection. It could be used to study shared mechanisms of neutralization by antibodies, selection of escape mutants and studies of viral entry.
