The paper shows JN.1 outcompetes BA.2.86 and other variants by evading antibodies more effectively, despite reduced ACE2 binding.

The paper introduces Cabernet, a bisulfite-free single-cell method for high-resolution 5mC and 5hmC profiling, revealing epigenetic dynamics in mouse embryos and demonstrating scalability for complex tissues.

This study shows repeated Omicron exposures reduce immune imprinting from wildtype vaccines, leading to higher neutralizing antibodies against XBB variants.

This study characterizes the antigenic properties and infectivity of the SARS-CoV-2 BA.2.86 variant, finding it evades immune responses but has reduced infectivity compared to previous variants.

MINERVA enables rapid, high-quality SARS-CoV-2 whole genome sequencing from clinical samples by simplifying library preparation and improving viral enrichment.

The paper reports the cryo-EM structure of a potent SARS-CoV-2 NAb, BD-368-2, showing it blocks ACE2 binding and induces structural changes in the spike trimer, distinct from other NAbs.
