A Liquid Crystal Model of Viral DNA Encapsidation

open access: yes, 2017
A liquid crystal continuum modeling framework for icosahedra bacteriophage viruses is developed and tested. The main assumptions of the model are the chromonic columnar hexagonal structure of confined DNA, the high resistance to bending and the phase ...

Skin microbiome engineering: Challenges and opportunities in skin diseases treatment

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
The skin microbiome plays a crucial role in skin health, influencing barrier integrity, immune responses, and disease susceptibility. Various interventions can reshape the microbiome, broadly categorized into targeted and untargeted approaches. Targeted strategies, such as phage therapy, engineered bacteria, and phage lysins, selectively modulate ...

Scaling‐up RADseq methods for large datasets of non‐invasive samples: Lessons for library construction and data preprocessing

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Genetic non‐invasive sampling (gNIS) is a critical tool for population genetics studies, supporting conservation efforts while imposing minimal impacts on wildlife. However, gNIS often presents variable levels of DNA degradation and non‐endogenous contamination, which can incur considerable processing costs. Furthermore, the use of restriction‐
