Our preprint out! VOCs and SARS-CoV-2 spike cleavage. The talented Alba Escalera at the #García-Sastre lab, help of ana s gonzalez-reiche Krogan Lab Simon Lab (ISMMS) Goran Bajic, Ph.D. and many others biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Proud to share my first-author paper! Thanks so much to my great mentors Teresa Aydillo Gomez and Adolfo Garcia-Sastre and the amazing cleavage team: ana s gonzalez-reiche Krogan Lab ManonLaporte18 Simon Lab (ISMMS) Goran Bajic, Ph.D. ... biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Very proud to share our last manuscript, now out at Cell Host & Microbe. Congrats to everyone but specially Alba Escalera !! #Garcia-Sastre Lab cell.com/cell-host-micr…
Mutations underlying SARS-CoV-2 VOCs: Alba Escalera Teresa Aydillo Gomez reveal #SARSCoV2 spike H655Y- found in Gamma & Omicron- enhances spike cleavage, cell-cell fusion & transmission. VOCs independently acquired mutations assoc w/spike cleavage & syncytia cell.com/cell-host-micr…
Incredible insight from Cell Press by PhD student Alba Escalera from the Department of Microbiology, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. #SARS-CoV-2 #Mutations #Variants bit.ly/3oUG2sS
To celebrate Graduate Student Appreciation Week, the #CEIRR Network is spotlighting our trainees! Today we are giving a shoutout to @AlbaEscaler in the García-Sastre lab at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Alba is from Madrid, Spain and is both a Universidad Politécnica de Madrid & Complutense alum. #CEIRRTrainees
Check out our new protocol to isolate and assess spike protein cleavage in SARS-CoV-2 variants obtained from clinical COVID-19 samples! Now out in STAR Protocols Teresa Aydillo Gomez sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
In our final SARS-CoV-2 session for the day we have some lovely work from Alba Escalera focussing on VOC mutations and transmissibility #OptionsXI
Orgulloso del rol que científicos españoles del grupo de Adolfo GªSastre están haciendo en OPTIONS XI en Belfast 🇬🇧 Distintas mutaciones afectan la transmisibilidad de variantes de #SARSCoV2 aumentando la escisión poteolítica de la proteína S (spike). 🇪🇸Proud to be Spanish!🇪🇸
We are loving our new tradition - The Micro PhD student happy hour Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai
Happy to share one of my projects in the 44th Congress of the SEInmunología in Bilbao. Amazing discussion with excellent immunologists in #SEI2023. Salva Iborra
Happy to share our recently published manuscript ‘The impact of S2 mutations on Omicron SARS-CoV-2 cell surface expression and fusogenicity’. Great teamwork and mentorship, Teresa Aydillo Gomez and Adolfo García-Sastre! tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

New entry route for H19 influenza A virus. García-Sastre lab Mount Sinai Health System find H19 influenza A virus genomes in N. Californian ducks. Instead of using conventional #influenza virus receptor sialic acid, H19 uses MHC class II proteins to enter host cells cell.com/cell-host-micr…
Proud of Elena Hernádez García who successfully defended her thesis today. Thanks to Francisco Sánchez Madrid, Mar Cabeza-Cabrerizo and Miguel Muñoz Ruiz for the great discussion on the Elena’s Work.
