HIV-1-encoded circular RNA enhances viral transcription through Tat binding - Nature Microbiology Obi, Yan and colleagues identified an HIV-1-encoded circular RNA (circHIV) in plasma from people living with HIV and in infected primary cells and T-cell lines. CircHIV binds to the viral Tat protein ...

Mabrouk my friend ! Exciting new adventure ! Kisses to Emma

Agreed ;)

Quand un virus en transporte un autre : le « cheval de Troie » des deltavirus Certains virus minuscules, appelés deltavirus, ne peuvent se propager qu’en s’appuyant sur d’autres virus.

Thanks Priyah ! You already heard the story last year in Spain ;)

Deltaviruses spread through a viral Trojan Horse Hepatitis D-like satellite viruses, known as deltaviruses, have been recently discovered in a wide range of animals. These viruses are thought to expr…

The Trojan Horse is real, and it’s microscopic! 🐴🦠
Our paper is out today in @cellcellpress.bsky.social!
We discovered that deltaviruses physically hide INSIDE helper viruses to sneak into new cells. And to prove it, we had to image them from every angle. 🧵👇

Thanks Sam !

Thanks @moritzschussler.bsky.social ! Wish you were with us !

Thanks Eric, hope to see you soon ;)

Merci Stan, miss you ;)

Thanks Mart, we corrected the nomenclature from the BiorXiv version as you suggested. Thanks for your input

Thanks Stef !

and this is the AI view ;)

and this is a Herpes Simplex-Virus 1 with a Deltavirus inside as seen by STED microscopy !

This is a snake Arenavirus and a snake deltavirus in it as seen by NS-EM !

These were VSV-Deltavirus looked at by Cryo-EM and this one is VSV-deltavirus as seen by Atomic Force Microscopy !

look at that

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 !
