Public genomic visibility of Lassa virus in West Africa: mapping sequence availability, ecological risk, and surveillance gaps

open access: yesCritical Public Health
Introduction Lassa fever is a major zoonotic infection in West Africa, but its true epidemiology is difficult to define because diagnostic access, reporting systems, and surveillance capacity vary across countries.

The Nuclear DNA Sensor IFI16 Indiscriminately Binds to and Diminishes Accessibility of the HSV-1 Genome to Suppress Infection

open access: yesmSystems, 2022
Human cells identify invading pathogens and activate immune signaling pathways through a wide array of pattern recognition receptors, including DNA sensors.

Personalized Zebrafish Models for Fusion‐Positive Pediatric Sarcomas

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Clinical sequencing efforts have revolutionized our approaches to categorizing pediatric cancers in real time. This has dramatically improved our ability to profile pediatric tumors, identify actionable vulnerabilities, and influence clinical care.

Human Cytomegalovirus Genomes Survive Mitosis via the IE19 Chromatin-Tethering Domain

open access: yesmBio, 2020
The genomes of DNA tumor viruses regain nuclear localization after nuclear envelope breakdown during mitosis through the action of a viral protein with a chromatin-tethering domain (CTD).

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

High-throughput screening of human genetic variants by pooled prime editing

open access: yesCell Genomics
Summary: Multiplexed assays of variant effect (MAVEs) enable scalable functional assessment of human genetic variants. However, established MAVEs are limited by exogenous expression of variants or constraints of genome editing.

Viral genome integration of canine papillomavirus 16

open access: yesPapillomavirus Research, 2019
Papillomaviruses infect humans and animals, most often causing benign proliferations on skin or mucosal surfaces. Rarely, these infections persist and progress to cancer.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Dengue Virus Genome Uncoating Requires Ubiquitination

open access: yesmBio, 2016
The process of genome release or uncoating after viral entry is one of the least-studied steps in the flavivirus life cycle. Flaviviruses are mainly arthropod-borne viruses, including emerging and reemerging pathogens such as dengue, Zika, and West Nile ...
