The ORF6 accessory protein contributes to SARS-CoV-2 virulence and pathogenicity in the naturally susceptible feline model of infection

Mohammed Nooruzzaman, Salman Latif Butt, Ruchi Rani…·Diego G. Diel

This study shows that deleting ORF6 from SARS-CoV-2 reduces virulence and pathogenicity in cats, with decreased immune suppression and reduced viral replication.

An efficient CRISPR-based strategy to insert small and large fragments of DNA using short homology arms

Oguz Kanca, Jonathan D. Zirin, Jorge García‐Marqués…·Hugo Jozef Bellen

The paper introduces three simplified CRISPR-based methods for DNA insertion in Drosophila, using short homology arms and ssDNA/dsDNA donors to generate transgenic constructs efficiently.
