Protein N-glycosylation is essential for SARS-CoV-2 infection

A. Casas-Sanchez, A. Romero-Ramirez, E. Hargreaves, C. C. Ellis, B. I. Grajeda, I. Estevao, E. I. Patterson, G. L. Hughes, I. C. Almeida, T. Zech, A. Acosta-Serrano

This study shows that host and viral N-glycosylation are essential for SARS-CoV-2 infection, with inhibition reducing infectivity and virion production.

Extracellular vesicles regulate yeast growth, biofilm formation, and yeast-to-hypha differentiation in Candida albicans

L. Honorato, J. F. Demetrio, C. C. Ellis, A. C. Piffer, Y. Pereira, S. Frases, G. Araujo, B. Pontes, M. T. Mendes, M. D. Pereira, A. J. Guimaraes, N. M. da Silva, G. Vargas, L. Joffe, M. Del Poeta, , L. Nimrichter

This study shows that extracellular vesicles from Candida albicans inhibit biofilm formation, yeast-to-hypha differentiation, and virulence by altering gene expression and morphology.

The crystal structure and localization of Trypanosoma brucei invariant surface glycoproteins suggest a more permissive VSG coat in the tsetse-transmitted metacyclic stage

A. Casas-Sanchez, S. Perally, R. Ramaswamy, L. R. Haines, C. Rose, C. Yunta, M. Aguilera-Flores, M. J. Lehane, I. C. Almeida, M. J. Boulanger, A. Acosta-Serrano

The paper identifies and characterizes a novel family of invariant surface proteins in the metacyclic stage of Trypanosoma brucei, suggesting a more permissive VSG coat structure that may aid vaccine development.
