New preprint from us while with @McLauchlanCVR identifying a new anti-HCV gene, ARHGEF3 aka XPLN (pronounced zeppelin) through ISG screening against HepC transient replicon. Big thanks to coauthors @ElihuAranday @RicardoSanvel @PatelLabCVR @KohlLabCVR @WilsonLabCVR
A human and rhesus macaque interferon-stimulated gene screen reveals ARHGEF3/XPLN as an antiviral gene against hepatitis C virus and other flaviviruses biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… #bioRxiv
We have an open position for a postdoc in a #SARS_COV_2 project.
*New Vacancy* POST-DOC with a PhD in Virology, who will make a leading contribution to a LifeArc-funded project that aims to develop small molecule inhibitors of a SARS-CoV-2 protein involved in virus RNA replication. (D/L 03/12).

Congratulations to our PhD student Ricardo, who published his first 1st author paper, describing a luciferase-based reporter #YFV, great tool for drugs and antibodies screening. Good job! @RicardoSanvel @margusvarjak @KohlLabCVR @serdelor sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Zika virus infection enhances future risk of severe dengue disease
Our latest paper is out in Science today! Congratulations & great work to Leah, @SSIGlobalHealth, our team in Nicaragua, and all the amazing collaborators!!

At the beginning of March, Paulo, PhD student from @Unesp_Global, concluded his 6 months experience in our lab, testing potential antivirals against #ZIKV. Now is back in Brazil and we are already missing his sunny presence. Best wishes for your PhD! @AgenciaFAPESP

We're really proud of @emcat1 @CVR_Genomics and
@CVRbioinfo and the contribution they are making to this important #COVIDー19 collaborative UK #Genomic_Sequencing initiative. Rapid real time sequencing data will help map #SARSCoV2 spread and identify viral changes.
Incredibly proud UofG's Centre for Virus Research @CVRinfo has been named as one of 13 key centres in a pan-UK alliance of scientists, working on #COVID19 whole genome sequencing.🦠

Not to be outdone by @nanopore sequencing of #SARS_COV_2 from Scotland's first #Covid_19 case also in progress on @illumina NextSeq550. Q30 still >95% and only 40 cycles to go. All go @CVR_Genomics
Great work!
@CVRinfo and @NHSGGC WoSSVC have rapidly sequenced #SARS_COV_2 from Scotland’s first #Covid_19 case in <24hrs using the @NetworkArtic protocol. Sequence to be released tomorrow morning following QC. Thanks to @arambaut @Scalene @CVRGenomics @CVRbioinfo @emcat1 @The_MRC

Congratulations to Sinkins lab.
⭐️ TOP health story on @BBCNews online this morning — @UofGlasgow’s breakthrough in the fight against the #dengue virus.
Congrats again to Prof Sinkins and team @CVRinfo, aided by @wellcometrust funding, on this #WorldChangingGlasgow study 🦟

Time flies... One year ago Chayanee joined @PatelLabCVR. She was a wonderful addition to the team, during and after working hours. She even convinced me to ride the Star Flyer at Edinburgh Christmas market 😱. Now she is back at her university in Bangkok and we miss her so much!

After 9 month of great work in @PatelLabCVR, Margherita is gone back to Italy to conclude her Master at San Raffaele University in Milan @MyUniSR. I am sure she enjoyed her time here in Glasgow 🧫🔬 We wish you a bright future! nitter.cf/serdelor/status/118083…
