Comparison of PCR versus PCR-Free DNA Library Preparation for Characterising the Human Faecal Virome

Viruses, 2021
The human intestinal microbiota is abundant in viruses, comprising mainly bacteriophages, occasionally outnumbering bacteria 10:1 and is termed the virome.

Formation of Genetically Determined Resistance against Human Norovirus Infection through Polymorphism of the FUT2 gene: a Review of the Literature

Эпидемиология и вакцинопрофилактика
Relevance. Human Noroviruses (HuNoV) are highly contagious pathogens responsible of acute human norovirus infection. HuNoV is the cause of every fifth case of acute non-bacterial gastroenteritis, annually causing about 699 million cases of the disease ...

Gut Inflammation and Immunity: What Is the Role of the Human Gut Virome?

Mediators of Inflammation, 2015
The human virome comprises viruses that infect host cells, virus-derived elements in our chromosomes, and viruses that infect other organisms, including bacteriophages and plant viruses.

Analysis of Population Immunity to Tick-Borne Encephalitis Virus in the Sverdlovsk Region

Эпидемиология и вакцинопрофилактика
Relevance. The study of population immunity to the tick-borne encephalitis virus in endemic areas helps to identify the circulation of the virus, makes it possible to assess the dynamics of the activity of natural foci and determine the area of ...

The human gut virome: form and function [PDF]

Emerging Topics in Life Sciences, 2017
Advances in next-generation sequencing technologies and the application of metagenomic approaches have fuelled an exponential increase in our understanding of the human gut microbiome. These approaches are now also illuminating features of the diverse and abundant collection of viruses (termed the virome) subsisting with the microbial ecosystems ...

A Roadmap to the Human Virome

PLoS Pathogens, 2013
Low-cost DNA sequencing has greatly democratized genomics, especially for the typically very small genomes of viruses [1]–[3]. The recent acceleration in human virus discovery by metagenomics indicates that many viruses escaped prior detection due to limitations of preexisting technologies.

Genetic Diversity and Phylogenetic Relationship of Human Norovirus Sequences Derived from Municipalities within the Sverdlovsk Region of Russia

Viruses
Human noroviruses (HuNoVs) are highly contagious pathogens responsible of norovirus-associated acute gastroenteritis (AGE). GII.4 is the prevailing HuNoV genotype worldwide.

Hypervariable loci in the human gut virome [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012
Genetic variation is critical in microbial immune evasion and drug resistance, but variation has rarely been studied in complex heterogeneous communities such as the human microbiome. To begin to study natural variation, we analyzed DNA viruses present in the lower gastrointestinal tract of 12 human volunteers by determining 48 billion bases of viral ...

The gut virome: the ‘missing link’ between gut bacteria and host immunity?

Therapeutic Advances in Gastroenterology, 2019
The human gut virome includes a diverse collection of viruses that infect our own cells as well as other commensal organisms, directly impacting on our well-being. Despite its predominance, the virome remains one of the least understood components of the
