A novel approach for direct sensing of viral RNA is proposed, allowing PCR‐free detection of viral RNA from genomic material, and variants screening by discrimination of polymorphic amplicons. The device is a cost‐effective, user‐friendly platform suitable for both mass screening kits and as a laboratory tool for an optimized management of resources ...

COVID-19 y la pandemia global causada por un nuevo coronavirus
Introducción: COVID-19 es una enfermedad respiratoria inédita que se reportó inicialmente como una neumonía atípica en diciembre de 2019. SARS-CoV-2, agente etiológico de esta patología, probablemente originado a partir de un virus de murciélago.

The k‐mer‐based pipeline, namely the Pathogen Origin Recognition Tool using Enriched K‐mers (PORT‐EK) identifies genomic regions enriched in the respective hosts after the comparison of multi‐genomes of isolates between different host species. The enriched k‐mer counts, which may serve as a potential marker, enable the classification and prediction of ...

The SARS-coronavirus-host interactome [PDF]
Coronaviruses (CoVs) are important human and animal pathogens that induce fatal respiratory, gastrointestinal and neurological disease. The outbreak of the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in 2002/2003 has demonstrated human vulnerability to ...

Land Use Change and Infectious Disease Emergence
Abstract Major infectious diseases threatening human health are transmitted to people from animals or by arthropod vectors such as insects. In recent decades, disease outbreaks have become more common, especially in tropical regions, including new and emerging infections that were previously undetected or unknown. Even though there is growing awareness

ABSTRACT SARS‐CoV‐2 clinical samples can be detected as positive for a long period of time using real‐time RT‐PCR, even when patients are no longer infectious. Viral culture is the gold standard for assessing a patient's infectivity, but it is a time‐consuming technique and lacks sensitivity. SARS‐CoV‐2 subgenomic RNA (sgRNA) detection has been used as

Patterns of Isoform Variation for N Gene Subgenomic mRNAs in Betacoronavirus Transcriptomes
The nucleocapsid (N) protein is the most expressed protein in later stages of SARS-CoV-2 infection with several important functions. It is translated from a subgenomic mRNA (sgmRNA) formed by template switching during transcription. A recently described translation initiation site (TIS) with a CTG codon in the leader sequence (TIS-L) is out of frame ...

Genome sequences of human coronavirus OC43 and NL63, associated with respiratory infections in Kilifi, Kenya [PDF]
Coding-complete genomes of two human coronavirus OC43 strains and one NL63 strain were obtained by metagenomic sequencing of clinical samples collected in 2017 and 2018 in Kilifi, Kenya.
