Essentiality and dynamic expression of the human tRNA pool during viral infection

Noa Aharon-Hefetz, Michal Schwartz, Einav Aharon, Noam Stern‐Ginossar, Orna Dahan, Yitzhak Pilpel

This study examines how HCMV and SARS-CoV-2 affect the human tRNA pool and finds HCMV alters tRNA expression and modifications, while SARS-CoV-2 does not, with implications for viral codon usage and host-virus interactions.
