UK chief vet warns avian flu at phenomenal level in UK

The risk to humans is low but diseased birds should not be touched, officials say.

New @wilsonlabcvr paper. Our work, led by @virologist_atu, showing that the prenylated variant of OAS1 can sense SARS-CoV-2 and protect against severe #COVID19 is out in Science: science.org/doi/10.1126/scie… #CVRCovidResponse 🧵 (with some new bits)

A prenylated dsRNA sensor protects against severe COVID-19

A component of the human interferon system that activates SARS-CoV-2 cellular defenses appears to be defective in a large proportion of humans.

Fantastic to finally see this out alongside @Lab_Rihn_th and @NardusMollentze. It's been a long journey involving so many people.
PLOS Biology@PLOSBiology8 Sep 2021
As well as targeting viral RNAs, @WilsonlabCVR @VirusMuser @lab_rihn_th @NardusMollentze &co show that antiviral effectors sometimes target host mRNAs too, leaving their mark after millions of years as compositional biases in the host's genome #PLOSBiology plos.io/3zSOEDN

New work from our @CVRinfo lab led by @virologist_atu revealing another innate immune 'defect' in horseshoe bats and linking this to why some people get more severe COVID-19: medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/… #CVRCovidResponse

A Prenylated dsRNA Sensor Protects Against Severe COVID-19 and is Absent in Horseshoe Bats

Cell autonomous antiviral defenses can inhibit the replication of viruses and reduce transmission and disease severity. To better understand the antiviral response to SARS-CoV-2, we used interferon...
