SARS-CoV-2 expresses a microRNA-like small RNA able to selectively repress host genes

P. Pawlica, T. Yario, S. White, J. Wang, W. Moss, P. Hui, J. M. Vinetz, J. A. Steitz

This study identifies a viral miRNA-like small RNA, vmiR-5p, from SARS-CoV-2 that represses host genes through the RNA interference pathway.

Novel R-type Lectin Domain-Containing Cytotoxins Comprise a Family of Virulence-Modifying Proteins in Pathogenic Leptospira

R. Chaurasia, A. Marroquin, M. A. Matthias, J. M. Vinetz

This paper identifies VM proteins in Leptospira as potent cytotoxins with ricin B chain-like domains, suggesting they could be therapeutic targets and biomarkers for leptospirosis severity.
