Universal and idiosyncratic characteristic lengths in bacterial genomes [PDF]
, 2018 In condensed matter physics, simplified descriptions are obtained by coarse-graining the features of a system at a certain characteristic length, defined as the typical length beyond which some properties are no longer correlated. From a physics standpoint, in vitro DNA has thus a characteristic length of 300 base pairs (bp), the Kuhn length of the ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Deinococcus radiodurans‐derived extracellular vesicles (R1‐EVs) provide radioprotection against total‐body irradiation‐induced acute radiation syndrome in mice. R1‐EVs mitigate oxidative damage by scavenging free radicals, promoting intestinal repair, enhancing hematopoietic function, and modulating immune responses. This study highlights the potential

Highly Scalable Algorithms for Robust String Barcoding [PDF]
arXiv, 2005 String barcoding is a recently introduced technique for genomic-based identification of microorganisms. In this paper we describe the engineering of highly scalable algorithms for robust string barcoding. Our methods enable distinguisher selection based on whole genomic sequences of hundreds of microorganisms of up to bacterial size on a well-equipped ...

Evidence for symmetric chromosomal inversions around the replication origin in bacteria. [PDF]
, 2000 BackgroundWhole-genome comparisons can provide great insight into many aspects of biology. Until recently, however, comparisons were mainly possible only between distantly related species.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Negative‐ and positive‐staining TEM is essential for rapid nanometer‐resolution characterization of organic specimens ranging from nanoparticles to cells. Uranyl salts are widely used negative‐/positive‐stains but are radioactive and highly toxic to users and the environment.

Recombinant transfer in the basic genome of E. coli [PDF]
, 2015 An approximation to the ~4 Mbp basic genome shared by 32 strains of E. coli representing six evolutionary groups has been derived and analyzed computationally. A multiple-alignment of the 32 complete genome sequences was filtered to remove mobile elements and identify the most reliable ~90% of the aligned length of each of the resulting 496 basic ...

Markovianness and Conditional Independence in Annotated Bacterial DNA [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 We explore the probabilistic structure of DNA in a number of bacterial genomes and conclude that a form of Markovianness is present at the boundaries between coding and non-coding regions, that is, the sequence of START and STOP codons annotated for the bacterial genome. This sequence is shown to satisfy a conditional independence property which allows

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Unique nanopillar metasurfaces are fabricated for the purpose of sensitive detection to refractive index changes in the presence of gold nanoparticles. The addition of these nanoparticles to the surface of the silicon nanopillars is facilitated via a novel antibiotic‐mediated linker system to promote localized surface plasmon effects resulting from Mie

ClustAGE: a tool for clustering and distribution analysis of bacterial accessory genomic elements
BMC Bioinformatics, 2018 Background The non-conserved accessory genome of bacteria can be associated with important adaptive characteristics that can contribute to niche specificity or pathogenicity of strains.
