Check out this entry from the latest #EMDB release, published in @CellCellPress, featuring #CryoEM structures revealing how bluetongue virus packages its RNA Genome and assembles its capsid at 2.8 Å resolution!
@ewanbirney Literally just preprinted three days ago on BiorXiv biorxiv.org/content/10.110… AMHY is the best candidate out there, but the evidence isn't conclusive - you'd need to make GM monotremes to formally test it.
This is cute - leveraging what we know from biology (DNA reads come from genomes with a small number of defined haplotypes) to do single molecule error correction. Hat's off.

Did you know? There is enough DNA in the your body to stretch from the Sun to Pluto and back — 17 times. There are about 37.2 trillion cells in the human body whose DNA sums to a total length of 2×10¹⁴ meters — enough for 17 Pluto round-trips.
