Transmission of the dengue virus (DENV) places a huge burden on public health in several endemic regions. Like other RNA viruses, mutations in the DENV genome greatly governs its virulence, transmissibility, and interaction with the host immune system ...

Microbial profile of the appendix niche in acute appendicitis: a novel sampling approach
This study utilized a novel sampling method, ERAT (i.e. endoscopic retrograde appendicitis treatment)‐guided lumen aspiration, to obtain samples from the appendix, and shotgun metagenomic sequencing was performed for in situ characterization of the appendix microbiome in patients with acute appendicitis.

Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

A Unifying Scenario on the Origin and Evolution of Cellular and Viral Domains [PDF]
The cellular theory on the nature of life has been one of the first major advancements in biology. Viruses, however, are the most abundant life forms, and their exclusion from mainstream biology and the Tree of Life (TOL) is a major paradox in biology ...

Role of HIV RNA structure in recombination and speciation: romping in purine A, keeps HTLV away
Extreme enrichment of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) RNA genome for the purine A parallels the mild purine-loading of the RNAs of most organisms.

The biology of bacterial peptidoglycans and their impact on host immunity and physiology
Peptidoglycans (PGN) are a constituent of the bacterial cell wall, and are shed as bacteria divide. The presence of PGN is therefore a marker of bacterial activity that has been exploited by both plants and animals to induce defence mechanisms. Pattern recognition receptors that recognize PGN are extremely well conserved throughout evolution and shown ...
