In South Africa, Candida auris was the third most common cause of candidemia in 2016–2017. We performed single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genome-wide analysis of 115 C.

Inter- and intracontinental migrations and local differentiation have shaped the contemporary epidemiological landscape of canine parvovirus in South America [PDF]
Canine parvovirus (CPV) is a fast-evolving single-stranded DNA virus that causes one of the most significant infectious diseasesof dogs. Although the virus dispersed over long distances in the past, current populations are considered to be ...

Dear Editor, Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses of the H5 subtype remain a serious concern for both poultry and human health. The clade 2.3.4.4 H5 viruses have evolved into four genetic groups (nominally designated A, B, C, and D).

Genomic and Cis‐Regulatory Basis of a Plastic C3‐C4 Photosynthesis in Eleocharis Baldwinii
The sedge Eleocharis baldwinii remarkably switches between C3‐like and C4‐like photosynthesis in response to environmental conditions. Combining gap‐free genome assembly with single‐cell multi‐omics, this study uncovers how subgenome dominance and cell‐specific cis‐regulation enable C4 photosynthesis.

The SAR92 Clade: an Abundant Coastal Clade of Culturable Marine Bacteria Possessing Proteorhodopsin [PDF]
ABSTRACT Proteorhodopsin (PR) is a protein that is abundant in marine bacterioplankton. PR is hypothesized to be a light-dependent proton pump, thus creating a proton gradient that can be used for energy production without electron transport.

Novel Variants of Clade 2.3.4 Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza A(H5N1) Viruses, China
We characterized 7 highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N1) viruses isolated from poultry in China during 2009–2012 and found that they belong to clade 2.3.4 but do not fit within the 3 defined subclades.

Sequential and Simultaneous Immunization of Rabbits with HIV-1 Envelope Glycoprotein SOSIP.664 Trimers from Clades A, B and C. [PDF]
We have investigated the immunogenicity in rabbits of native-like, soluble, recombinant SOSIP.664 trimers based on the env genes of four isolates of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1); specifically BG505 (clade A), B41 (clade B), CZA97 (clade C)

Virulence Traits and Azole Resistance in Korean Candida auris Isolates
We analyzed the virulence traits and azole resistance mechanisms of 104 Candida auris isolates collected from 13 Korean hospitals from 1996 to 2022. Of these 104 isolates, 96 (5 blood and 91 ear isolates) belonged to clade II, and 8 (6 blood and 2 other ...

An Engineered PfAgo with Wide Catalytic Temperature Range and Substrate Spectrum
This work presents a strategy for engineering thermophilic Ago proteins to obtain wide catalytic temperature range and broad substrate spectrum. This strategy is applied to engineer PfAgo and TtdAgo, and the biochemical properties of the engineered PfAgo are systematically characterized. The study further elucidates the structural differences involved.
