Experiencing 50 Years of Synergistic Development in Structural Biology and Enzymology

Journal of the Chinese Chemical Society, EarlyView.
Picture of Sunney Chan with Academia Sinica (AS) President James C. Liao and three Vice Presidents: Shin‐Kun Peng (left one), Tang K. Tang (right one), and Mei‐Yin Chou (right 2), taken at the annual Chinese New Year's Banquet of AS, February 7, 2025. This was likely Sunney's last appearance in formal activities of AS.

A Survey of Protein Structures from Archaeal Viruses

Life, 2013
Viruses that infect the third domain of life, Archaea, are a newly emerging field of interest. To date, all characterized archaeal viruses infect archaea that thrive in extreme conditions, such as halophilic, hyperthermophilic, and methanogenic ...

Seasonal Dynamics of Community and Function of Gut Microbiome in Taihangshan Macaque (Macaca mulatta tcheliensis): Inferred From Metagenomic Data

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
A total of 435 non‐redundant metagenome‐assembled genomes (MAGs) were obtained from fecal samples of Taihangshan macaque across all four seasons. The alpha diversity of the gut microbiome in spring and winter was significantly higher than in summer and autumn. Furthermore, marked differences were detected in functional pathways and carbohydrate enzymes

Genome editing in archaeal viruses and endogenous viral protein purification

STAR Protocols, 2021
Summary: Archaea-infecting viruses are morphologically and genomically among the most diverse entities. Unfortunately, they are also fairly understudied due to a lack of efficient genetic tools.

Testing for Bacteria and Fungi in Cells and Ancillary Reagents—Probe‐Based Quantitative PCR Assays

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
This document specifies the technical elements for bacteria and fungi detection by PCR assay which enables rapid, broad‐spectrum detection of bacteria and fungi with high sensitivity. Qualitative judgement is based on LOD. Key detection points include efficient nucleic acid extraction, broad‐spectrum primer‐probe design, high amplification efficiency ...

PCR biases distort bacterial and archaeal community structure in pyrosequencing datasets [PDF]

, 2012
As 16S rRNA gene targeted massively parallel sequencing has become a common tool for microbial diversity investigations, numerous advances have been made to minimize the influence of sequencing and chimeric PCR artifacts through rigorous quality control ...

Game-Theoretical Modeling of Interviral Conflicts Mediated by Mini-CRISPR Arrays

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
All cellular organisms coevolve with multiple viruses, so that both virus-host and intervirus conflicts are major factors of evolution. Accordingly, hosts evolve multiple, elaborate defense systems and viruses respond by evolving means of antidefense ...

Shotgun Metagenomic Analysis Reveals Taxonomic and Functional Transitions in the Salivary Microbiome During Periodontal Disease Progression

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To characterise multi‐kingdom salivary microbiome profiles across clinically defined periodontal states and identify stage‐specific taxonomic and functional alterations using shotgun metagenomic sequencing. Materials and Methods In this cross‐sectional study, 204 adults (mean age 40.3 ± 7.6 years) from the SECRETO study (NCT01934725 ...

Monitoring Physiological Changes in Haloarchaeal Cell during Virus Release

Viruses, 2016
The slow rate of adsorption and non-synchronous release of some archaeal viruses have hindered more thorough analyses of the mechanisms of archaeal virus release.

Diversity, taxonomy, and evolution of archaeal viruses of the class Caudoviricetes.

PLoS Biology, 2021
The archaeal tailed viruses (arTV), evolutionarily related to tailed double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) bacteriophages of the class Caudoviricetes, represent the most common isolates infecting halophilic archaea.
