Putting RaTG15 plus some of the other new viruses into the Holmes2021 alignment. Some of these could potentiallybe in the Evidence Doc. RpYN06 (@Eddie Holmes new _Cell_ paper) and PCR31 lay to rest Alina's slander that GDpangolin is fake. See similarity in indels 1,2,3 and 5. Also probably makes sense to update the virological post.

For the virus glycoprotein nerdboys note that RaTG15 and RsYN04 have CXK insert at indel 4a. Both viruses have an added cysteine 5 or 4 amino acids towards the N-term. So, these viruses either have an extra tight cysteine loopin the N-terminal domain or as discussed in channel above have a metal binding domain in the N-terminus. One of@Kristian Andersen long covid patients has an added dicysteine in the N-terminus. Also W152C in B.1.427/429 isan unpaired cysteine which is just not hanging in space so might work with H69, H146 and H245 to bind a metal ion.Cryo EM guys/girls get busy.

"Big names, titles don't always = truth." I believe that Ms. Young is talking about us gentlemen. Truly pisses me off. [shared file(s): image.png]

She and Alina seems to be taking the victory lap together.

Note - the align - still a WIP...

What's funny here - I can certainly agree that "big names, titles don't always = truth", but referring to the Bloomshitters and not actually us. The truth will ultimately prevail. Just had a meeting with Fauci and his team this morning - they get it and deeply appreciate what we're doing, sowe'll keep dancing...
