Public microbial genome repositories (such as NCBI) contain thousands of sequence‐identical genome assemblies assigned to different taxonomic lineages, potentially inflating microbial diversity and introducing bias into comparative genomics, metagenomics, and pathogen surveillance.

Decoding sequence recognition code of nucleic acid‐binding proteins of human‐infecting DNA viruses
Human‐infecting DNA viruses remain major health threats, yet the DNA‐recognition mechanisms of their nucleic acid‐binding proteins (NBPs) are poorly understood. Here, we systematically profiled 103 viral NBPs from human‐infecting DNA viruses, with three NBPs from non‐human‐infecting DNA viruses as controls, using high‐throughput screening.

Monocyte inflammation and adaptive immune dysfunction in severe Klebsiella pneumoniae pneumonia
Severe Klebsiella pneumoniae pneumonia combines intense inflammation with failure to control infection, yet the cellular basis is unclear. Using a severity‐focused single‐cell atlas of 708,894 peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 100 individuals, complemented by plasma protein measurements and flow cytometry, we show that disease severity redirects ...

Canine Distemper Virus Research in China and Future Directions for Conservation 中国犬瘟热病毒研究现状与保护策略展望
ABSTRACT Canine distemper is a highly contagious, severe disease caused by the canine distemper virus (CDV). With a worldwide distribution and ever‐expanding list of susceptible hosts, CDV poses a growing risk for many threatened wildlife species, both in captivity and their native habitats. As a megadiverse country, China is home to myriad endemic and
