Wonderful story
Thumbs up !!!!
Wonderful story
Thumbs up !!!!
We found a viral Trojan Horse: a virus can hide inside another virus.This one surprised us: deltaviruses don’t just borrow a helper virus. They can travel inside it.
A literal Trojan Horse “virus-in-a-virus” route into cells. 🤯 Kudos to 1st author @viroscope.bsky.social and co-authors !
Courage à vous 😘
With Eugene Koonin, we propose a concept of “the selfish ribosome”, under which evolution of life is viewed as a ribosomal takeover, where the ribosome evolved to consume most of the cell’s resources, while other cellular componentry ensures the propagation of the ribosome. arxiv.org/abs/2602.23268
Pleased to be invited to speak at the first ever Hormel Institute Virology Nexus Symposium in Austin, Minnesota ...home of the SPAM museum! hi.umn.edu/virology-nex...

Alternative splicing in viruses adds another regulatory layer that hugely increases the complexity of virus-host interaction. Congrats @delphinem-p.bsky.social @geminiteamlab.bsky.social and all involved!
Yes sincere congrats mate !!!!
This is highly deserved 👍🏻
Honored to be elected as a Fellow of the American Academy of Microbiology! I look forward to working alongside my colleagues to advance microbial science for the benefit of society. Learn more about the 2026 Fellowship Class: press release link

I never got to that high-tech level 😂
And 200 nt was a good one 😂
Bravo @mkrupovic.bsky.social and team !
Great crowd and attendance for our France-Japan Virology workshop we kicked off this morning !
It is now on air.
Please look it up and join us!
Great science and wonderful venue👍🏻

Finally! Translon: A term for the sequence that actually gets translated. ORF or CDS just won't do when you work with viruses that break the rules by frameshifting, readthrough, non-AUG starts, etc. Thank you Pavel Baranov et al! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
One can at last now get notification from selected BlueSky accounts !!! That is cool !
