To translate, or not to translate: viral and host mRNA regulation by interferon-stimulated genes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Type I interferon (IFN) is one of the first lines of cellular defense against viral pathogens. As a result of IFN signaling, a wide array of IFN-stimulated gene (ISG) products is upregulated to target different stages of the viral life cycle.

Genomic architecture of endogenous ichnoviruses reveals distinct evolutionary pathways leading to virus domestication in parasitic wasps

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2020
Background Polydnaviruses (PDVs) are mutualistic endogenous viruses inoculated by some lineages of parasitoid wasps into their hosts, where they facilitate successful wasp development.

Poliovirus intrahost evolution is required to overcome tissue-specific innate immune responses. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
RNA viruses, such as poliovirus, have a great evolutionary capacity, allowing them to quickly adapt and overcome challenges encountered during infection.

Complete genome viral phylogenies suggests the concerted evolution of regulatory cores and accessory satellites. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
We consider the concerted evolution of viral genomes in four families of DNA viruses. Given the high rate of horizontal gene transfer among viruses and their hosts, it is an open question as to how representative particular genes are of the evolutionary ...

Stem-cell-based gene therapy for HIV infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Despite the enormous success of combined anti-retroviral therapy, HIV infection is still a lifelong disease and continues to spread rapidly worldwide. There is a pressing need to develop a treatment that will cure HIV infection.

Persistent expression of Cotesia plutellae bracovirus genes in parasitized host, Plutella xylostella.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Cotesia plutellae (= vestalis) bracovirus (CpBV) is symbiotic to an endoparasitoid wasp, C. plutellae, and plays crucial roles in parasitism against the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella.

Oyster RNA-seq data support the development of Malacoherpesviridae genomics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The family of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) Malacoherpesviridae includes viruses able to infect marine mollusks and detrimental for worldwide aquaculture production. Due to fast-occurring mortality and a lack of permissive cell lines, the available data on

Coexistence of virome-encoded health-associated genes and pathogenic genes in global habitats

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology
Viral remnants constitute approximately 8% of the human genome, reflecting extensive historical gene exchange between viruses and their hosts. Some viral genomes harbor genes acquired through horizontal gene transfer that are associated with potential ...

Network analysis of Down syndrome and SARS-CoV-2 identifies risk and protective factors for COVID-19

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
SARS-CoV-2 infection has spread uncontrollably worldwide while it remains unknown how vulnerable populations, such as Down syndrome (DS) individuals are affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
