Researchers found that sea anemones use CARDIB, a protein that suppresses antiviral defenses, yet is essential for mounting an effective response—revealing a different immune pathway from humans' MAVS. CRISPR removal made animals highly susceptible to infection, and outdoor mesocosm tests showed the pathway matters in nature, indicating multiple, independent antiviral strategies evolved across animals.
Restricted free agent Matisse Thybulle intends to sign an offer sheet with the Dallas Mavericks, but the Portland Trail Blazers will have the right to match the offer. The terms of the offer are not yet known, but it is expected to be a three-year, $33 million deal. The Mavericks have not used their non-taxpayer mid-level exception, so the offer sheet will likely come out of that figure. The Blazers have signaled that they will match any reasonable offer for Thybulle, but the Mavericks are testing their commitment, possibly hoping that uncertainty surrounding Damian Lillard's future will sway their decision. The Blazers will have until Friday night to decide whether to match the offer or let Thybulle go to Dallas.
