The IFIT2–IFIT3 antiviral complex targets short 5’ untranslated regions on viral mRNAs for translation inhibition - Nature Microbiology
Viruses generally have compact genomes, resulting in many viral mRNAs with short 5’ untranslated regions. An antiviral complex exploits this feature of viral mRNAs to selectively inhibit viral protein...

Our paper and the first from our PhD student talking about the current state of flavivirus vaccines. Are our current strategies failing, and are their other options? Maybe new targets are needed. Read it below.

The Flavivirus Non-Structural Protein 5 (NS5): Structure, Functions, and Targeting for Development of Vaccines and Therapeutics
Flaviviruses, including dengue (DENV), Zika (ZIKV), West Nile (WNV), Japanese encephalitis (JEV), yellow fever (YFV), and tick-borne encephalitis (TBEV) viruses, pose a significant global emerging threat. With their potential to cause widespread outbreaks and severe health complications, the development of effective vaccines and antiviral therapeutics is imperative. The flaviviral non-structural protein 5 (NS5) is a highly conserved and multifunctional protein that is crucial for viral replication, and the NS5 protein of many flaviviruses has been shown to be a potent inhibitor of interferon (IFN) signalling. In this review, we discuss the functions of NS5, diverse NS5-mediated strategies adopted by flaviviruses to evade the host antiviral response, and how NS5 can be a target for the development of vaccines and antiviral therapeutics.

Very clever way of tricking the immune system into production of extremely specific neutralising antibody against Japanese encephalitis virs by presenting JEV proteins on the surface of an insect virus. Presented today by Connor Scott at Lorne I&I conference
