有意思,刚在Nature首页看到的 https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-00210-5
Several disease researchers who attended a recent meeting to discuss
transparency around such studies say the US government should offer a public
explanation when it approves such ‘gain-of-function’ experiments,
disclose who made the decision to fund them and make a broad public
announcement when a study begins. Others argued that greater transparency
could make it harder to approve necessary research.
是啊,我们也疑惑NIH之前资助一些研究组做人工合成新病毒的gain-of-function实验
为了干嘛
干啥不用天然病毒去研究病理,制药
SARS基因组里最不保守的就是Spike protein S,这个是寻找宿主结合点的侦察兵,有
些组去尝试替换不同的S蛋白要干嘛?
