Yup, totally. Virion is 1 complete viral particle, an enveloped virus with RNA inside it in case of SARS-cov-2. It doesn't do anything on its own, it is genes in

Thread! It’s great to have been able to collaborate with @Scient_Art on a detailed model of the #SARS-CoV-2 virus particle, the cause of #COVID-19, using methods we’ve developed with @GSofASimVis

ok im gonna tweet about fe awakening in this thread lol i know im supposed to do all s supports but like chrobin is too good to not do over&over

Can a #COVID19 infection during pregnancy lead to infection of the fetus?A mix of suspicious case reports and scientifically inaccurate articles have muddled this area.Actually, SARS-CoV-2 doesn’t even need to

CLASSROOM AEROSOL RISK CALCULATOR: Duke researchers have developed a new online calculator that teachers and students can use to “estimate the risk of airborne transmission of the #COVID19 virus in

Two questions on this biopsy:1. Would your interpretation differ based on the anatomical location of the biopsy? (i.e. would you call it the same irrespective from where the biopsy was

@PaulGreeff @Smackenziekerr A large volume of evidence come out of hospitals showing that the COVID-19 virus has two stages to the infection of the body.In the first phase, the virus

If you are hearing about #covid19 “reinfections” in Asia, I can offer you my take as a virologist. The best explanation for what we’re seeing is likely due to three

#SARSCoV2 Proteome includes 29 proteins: 16 non-structural proteins + 4 structural proteins + 9 accessory proteins. This scheme from @ViralZone @ISBSIB shows where are they encoded within the viral RNA

Excellent paper.“we describe the first native RNA sequence of SARS-CoV-2 [using direct nanopore sequencing], detailing the coronaviral transcriptome [all the RNA, mRNA, sgRNA, made by the virus] and epitranscriptome [all

Here is the virus in "closed" (teal) and "open" (green) form. In "open" form, it binds to ACE2. ACE2 also blocks the ideal neutralizing antibody sites, and binds with extremely

George here, with a brief summary of our revised preprint; the first native RNA sequence of SARS-CoV-2 using @nanopore, and a data-driven inference of genetic features and evolutionary rate. 1/12https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.03.05.9761

What if this is acute hemoglobinopathy? Reminds me of MetHemoglobinemia-hypoxia out of proportion to symptoms or lung exam or lung imaging. AND 2019-SARS-CoV is active against hemoglobin according to THIS

1/ALRIGHT, by popular demand, it is time for your local virologist to do a thread on “what is a virus”?There is a lot of info (and mis-information) out there, so

Fuck it: opinion on FE ships time! Your opinion on Marth/Caeda? Your opinion on Edeleth? Your opinion on IkeSoren? Your opinion on Celica/Alm? Your opinion on Felianne? Your opinion on

This pandemic should upend how biologists think about virus transmission—for the better. My greatest regret is having parroted received wisdom early on. I said our @NEJM aerosol stability findings were
