Here, the authors characterize a recombinant virus-like particle polio vaccine with stabilized capsid proteins and show comparable immunogenicity to the current inactivated polio vaccine.

The virus particle comes apart, releasing the viral genome. The viral RNA (vRNA) is translated into a single polypeptide that is cut into ten proteins, and the viral genome is replicated.

For all the mysteries that remain about the novel coronavirus and the COVID-19 disease it causes, scientists have generated an incredible amount of fine-grained knowledge in a surprisingly short time.
