Rapid Transmission and Divergence of Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus faecium Sequence Type 80, China [PDF]
Emerging Infectious DiseasesWe investigated genomic evolution of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREF) during an outbreak in Shenzhen, China. Whole-genome sequencing revealed 2 sequence type 80 VREF subpopulations diverging through insertion sequence–mediated ...

Functional Residue Prediction by Multiple Sequence Alignment for Carbohydrate Binding Modules [PDF]
Proceedings of the 11th Joint Conference on Information Sciences (JCIS), 2008 Multiple sequence alignment is often used to locate consensus sequence stretches with evolutionary and functional conservation. However, when sequence similarity among the queries becomes low, sequence alignment tools generate extremely diverse results.

Advancing Solutions to the Carbohydrate Sequencing Challenge [PDF]
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2019 Carbohydrates possess a variety of distinct features with stereochemistry playing a particularly important role in distinguishing their structure and function. Monosaccharide building blocks are defined by a high density of chiral centers. Additionally, the anomericity and regiochemistry of the glycosidic linkages carry important biological information.
