“Intestinimonas gabonensis” sp. nov., a new bacterium detected from a Gabonese stool specimen
Detection of new bacteria becomes a major part of culturomics studies coupled with taxonogenomics. Using these strategies, we report here the main characteristics of a new species, “Intestinimonas gabonensis” strain GM5. It is a bacterium isolated from a

Genome-on-Diet: Taming Large-Scale Genomic Analyses via Sparsified Genomics [PDF]
Searching for similar genomic sequences is an essential and fundamental step in biomedical research and an overwhelming majority of genomic analyses. State-of-the-art computational methods performing such comparisons fail to cope with the exponential growth of genomic sequencing data.

Mutations of Novel Influenza A(H10N8) Virus in Chicken Eggs and MDCK Cells
The recent emergence of human infection with influenza A(H10N8) virus is an urgent public health concern. Genomic analysis showed that the virus was conserved in chicken eggs but presented substantial adaptive mutations in MDCK cells. Our results provide
