Autophagy is a highly conserved intracellular pathway that is essential for survival in all
eukaryotes. In healthy cells, autophagy is used to remove damaged intracellular components, …

The SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.1 variant emerged in late 2021 and is characterised by
multiple spike mutations across all spike domains. Here we show that compared to the Delta …

Autophagy is an essential catabolic pathway which sequesters and engulfs cytosolic
substrates via autophagosomes, unique double-membraned structures. ATG8 proteins are …
