Salmonella Derby adaptation to swine and simultaneous attenuation for humans go through decay of Salmonella Pathogenicity Island I

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
We report the identification, within the global population of Salmonella Derby, of a lineage highly diffused and expanding in swine while being significantly under-represented in humans which carries stop mutations in the Salmonella Pathogenicity Island ...

Alignment-free Genomic Analysis via a Big Data Spark Platform [PDF]

, 2021
Motivation: Alignment-free distance and similarity functions (AF functions, for short) are a well established alternative to two and multiple sequence alignments for many genomic, metagenomic and epigenomic tasks.

Intestinal Barrier, Claudins and Mycotoxins

Toxins, 2021
The intestinal barrier is the main barrier against all of the substances that enter the body. Proper functioning of this barrier guarantees maintained balance in the organism. Mycotoxins are toxic, secondary fungi metabolites, that have a negative impact

Estrogen Receptor β Participates in Alternariol-Induced Oxidative Stress in Normal Prostate Epithelial Cells

Toxins, 2021
Alternaria toxins are considered as emerging mycotoxins, however their toxicity has not been fully evaluated in humans. Alternariol (AOH), the most prevalent Alternaria mycotoxin, was previously reported to be genotoxic and to affect hormonal balance in ...

The Parallelism Motifs of Genomic Data Analysis [PDF]

, 2020
Genomic data sets are growing dramatically as the cost of sequencing continues to decline and small sequencing devices become available. Enormous community databases store and share this data with the research community, but some of these genomic data ...

De novo transcriptome sequencing and gene co-expression reveal a genomic basis for drought sensitivity and evidence of a rapid local adaptation on Atlas cedar (Cedrus atlantica)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionUnderstanding the adaptive capacity to current climate change of drought-sensitive tree species is mandatory, given their limited prospect of migration and adaptation as long-lived, sessile organisms.

Development of ListeriaBase and comparative analysis of Listeria monocytogenes [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Listeria consists of both pathogenic and non-pathogenic species. Reports of similarities between the genomic content between some pathogenic and non-pathogenic species necessitates the investigation of these species at the genomic level to ...
