“…Abstract Plitidepsin is an antitumoral compound safe for treating COVID-19 that targets the translation elongation factor eEF1A. Here we detect that plitidepsin decreases de novo cap-dependent translation of SARS-CoV-2 and non-viral RNAs but affects less than 13% of the host proteome, thus preserving cellular viability. …”

Ground-based Reconnaissance Observations of 21 Exoplanet Atmospheres with the Exoplanet Transmission Spectroscopy Imager by Ryan J. Oelkers, Luke M. Schmidt, Erika Cook, Mary Anne Limbach, D. L. DePoy, J. L. Marshall, Jimmy Ardoin, Mitchell Barry, Evan Batteas, Alexandra Boone, Brant Conway, Silvana Delgado Adrande, John D.

L. Walker, Z. Franklin Wang, Kaitlin Webber

“…These results suggest that ETSI can provide initial transmission spectroscopy observations for a fraction of the observational and monetary overhead previously required to detect an exoplanet's atmosphere. Ultimately these reconnaissance observations increase the number of planets with transmission spectroscopy measurements by ~10% and provide an immediate prioritization of 21 exoplanets for future follow-up with more precious observatories, such as the James Webb Space Telescope. …”
