Huge analysis out as a preprint today! For every 9 years an animal spends in the wildlife trade, it shares an additional pathogen with humans. Clear long-term impacts based on 40 years of global trade data 🧪😷 biorxiv.org/content/earl...

Delighted to share with you our study published in Nature Microbiology. We studied the ability of the receptor-binding proteins (RBP) of >100 animal viruses to mediate entry into human cells.

Receptor-binding proteins from animal viruses are broadly compatible with human cell entry factors - Nature Microbiology
Functional systematic pseudotype virus-based analysis of the ability of diverse animal viruses to enter into a panel of well-characterized human cell lines shows a broad compatibility between animal virus receptor-binding proteins and human cell entry factors.
