UNWARRANTED EXCLUSION OF INTERMEDIATE LINEAGE A-B SARS-COV-2 GENOMES IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE TWO-SPILLOVER HYPOTHESIS OF THE ORIGIN OF COVID-19

Unwarranted Exclusion of Intermediate Lineage A-B SARS-CoV-2 Genomes Is Inconsistent with the Two-Spillover Hypothesis of the Origin of COVID-19

Pekar et al.(2022) propose that SARS-CoV-2 was a zoonotic spillover that first infected humans in the Huanan Seafood Market in Wuhan, China.They propose that there were two separate spillovers of the closely related lineages A and lineage B in a short period of time.The two lineages are differentiated by two SNVs; hence, a single-SNV A-B intermedia

Electron Acceptors With a Truxene Core and Perylene Diimide Branches for Organic Solar Cells: The Effect of Ring-Fusion

In this work, a star-shaped planar acceptor named FTr-3PDI was synthesized via ring-fusion between truxene core and three bay-linked perylene diimide (PDI) branches.Compared to the unfused Proteins non-planar acceptor Tr-3PDI, FTr-3PDI exhibits better structural rigidity and planarity, as well as more effective conjugation between truxene core and
