DNA vaccines for bacterial infections
DNA vaccines are an exciting development in vaccine technology which may have a special role in preventing viral infections and as ‘theracines’ for cancer. Their use in preventing bacterial infections has, by comparison, been less well documented.

Bacterial Extracellular DNA Promotes β-Amyloid Aggregation
Alzheimer’s disease is associated with prion-like aggregation of the amyloid β (Aβ) peptide and the subsequent accumulation of misfolded neurotoxic aggregates in the brain.

Co- variation in soil biodiversity and biogeochemistry in northern and southern Victoria Land, Antarctica [PDF]
Data from six sites in Victoria Land (72–77°S) investigating co-variation in soil communities (microbial and invertebrate) with biogeochemical properties showthe influence of soil properties on habitat suitability varied among local landscapes as well as

Transferrin-polycation conjugates as carriers for DNA uptake into cells. [PDF]
We have developed a high-efficiency nucleic acid delivery system that uses receptor-mediated endocytosis to carry DNA macromolecules into cells. We accomplished this by conjugating the iron-transport protein transferrin to polycations that bind nucleic ...

An efficient strategy for broad-range detection of low abundance bacteria without DNA decontamination of PCR reagents. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Bacterial DNA contamination in PCR reagents has been a long standing problem that hampers the adoption of broad-range PCR in clinical and applied microbiology, particularly in detection of low abundance bacteria.

Draft genome sequence of the naturally competent Bacillus simplex strain WY10 [PDF]
We sequenced a naturally competent bacterial isolate, WY10, cultured from a Wyoming soil sample. Sequence analysis revealed that WY10 is a novel strain of Bacillus simplex .

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.
