  1. #SARSCoV2 has evolved to optimize its replication fitness in the human host. This study shows that a #nucleocapsid gene mutation enhances production of a truncated protein that boosts viral fitness by suppressing #antiviral responses @PLOSBiology plos.io/3PIZMjr

  2. #SARS-CoV-2 #papain-like #protease inhibits ISGylation of the viral #nucleocapsid protein to evade host anti-viral #immunity, J Virol.: journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.1

    The present study may contribute to gaining new insight into the roles of ISGylation-mediated anti-viral function in SARS-CoV-2 infection and may lead to the development of more potent and selective inhibitors targeted to SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein.

  3. #Detection of #Nucleocapsid #Antibodies Associated with Primary #SARS-CoV-2 #Infection in Unvaccinated and Vaccinated #Blood #Donors, Emerg Infect Dis.: wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/30/8

    Nucleocapsid antibody assays can be used to estimate SARS-CoV-2 infection #prevalence in regions implementing #spike-based COVID-19 #vaccines. We also found good durability of nucleocapsid antibody detection for up to >1 year after infection.
