The Application of The Skin Virome for Human Identification [PDF]

open access: greenForensic Science International: Genetics, 2021
AbstractThe use of skin virome for human identification purposes offers a unique approach to instances where a viable and statistically relevant human DNA profile is unavailable. The human skin virome may act as an alternative DNA profile and/or an additional form of probative genetic material.

Characterization of the phyllosphere virome of fresh vegetables and potential transfer to the human gut

open access: goldNature Communications
Fresh vegetables harbor diverse microorganisms on leaf surfaces, yet their viral communities remain unexplored. We investigate the diversity and ecology of phyllosphere viromes of six leafy green vegetables using virus-like particle (VLP) enrichment and ...

The human gut virome database [PDF]

open access: green, 2019
ABSTRACTThe gut microbiome profoundly impacts human health and disease, but viruses that infect these microbes are likely also important. Problematically, viral sequences are often missed due to insufficient reference viral genomes. Here we (i) built a human gut virome database, GVD, from 648 viral particle metagenomes or microbial metagenomes from 572

Illuminating the human virome in health and disease. [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Med, 2020
AbstractAlthough the microbiome is established as an important regulator of health and disease, the role of viruses that inhabit asymptomatic humans (collectively, the virome) is less defined. While we are still characterizing what constitutes a healthy or diseased virome, an exciting next step is to move beyond correlations and toward identification ...

The human virome: assembly, composition and host interactions. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Rev Microbiol, 2021
The human body hosts vast microbial communities, termed the microbiome. Less well known is the fact that the human body also hosts vast numbers of different viruses, collectively termed the 'virome'. Viruses are believed to be the most abundant and diverse biological entities on our planet, with an estimated 1031 particles on Earth. The human virome is

Non-Polio Enterovirus Surveillance in the Ural Federal District and Western Siberia, 2022: Is There a Need for a Vaccine?

open access: yesVaccines, 2023
Human non-polio enteroviruses (NPEVs) are the etiological agents involved in most cases of hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD), herpangina and aseptic meningitis.

The gut virome: A new microbiome component in health and disease

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2022
Summary: The human gastrointestinal tract harbours an abundance of viruses, collectively known as the gut virome. The gut virome is highly heterogeneous across populations and is linked to geography, ethnicity, diet, lifestyle, and urbanisation.

A tissue level atlas of the healthy human virome. [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Biol, 2020
AbstractBackgroundHuman-resident microbes can influence both health and disease. Investigating the microbiome using next-generation sequencing technology has revealed examples of mutualism and conflict between microbes and humans. Comparing to bacteria, the viral component of the microbiome (i.e., the “virome”) is understudied.

The gut virome in two indigenous populations from Malaysia

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The human gut contains a complex microbiota dominated by bacteriophages but also containing other viruses and bacteria and fungi. There are a growing number of techniques for the extraction, sequencing, and analysis of the virome but currently no ...
