SARS-CoV-2 ORF6 disrupts innate immune signalling by inhibiting cellular mRNA export

R. Hall, A. Guedan, M. W. Yap, G. R. Young, R. Harvey, J. P. Stoye, K. N. Bishop

This paper shows that SARS-CoV-2 ORF6 inhibits mRNA export by interacting with Rae1, suppressing antiviral responses and aiding viral replication.

Duplication and divergence of the retrovirus restriction gene Fv1 in Mus caroli mice allows protection from multiple retroviruses

M. W. Yap, G. R. Young, R. Varnaite, S. Morand, J. P. Stoye

The paper identifies a duplicated Fv1 gene in Mus caroli mice that provides resistance to multiple retroviruses, suggesting evolutionary pressure from diverse viral threats.
