Bacterial purine metabolism modulates C. elegans development and stress tolerance via DAF‐16
Purine metabolism is crucial for cellular function and is a conserved metabolic network from prokaryotes to humans, but remains poorly understood in metazoan. To investigate the impact of dietary components on purine metabolism and animal growth, we screened the effects of an Escherichia coli single‐gene deletion library on the growth of the nematode ...

Characterization of the Functional Domains of Human Foamy Virus Integrase Using Chimeric Integrases
Retroviral integrases insert viral DNA into target DNA. In this process they recognize their own DNA specifically via functional domains. In order to analyze these functional domains, we constructed six chimeric integrases by swapping domains between HIV-1 and HFV integrases, and two point mutants of HFV integrase.

Abstract Introduction Black and Hispanic/Latine people are disproportionately affected by HIV‐1 and may have a greater risk of comorbidities than non‐Black and non‐Hispanic/Latine people with HIV. However, they have historically been underrepresented in HIV clinical studies.

Rethinking HIV treatment: How non‐integrase strand regimens may hold the key to better immune health
Abstract Purpose HIV outcome changed drastically with antiretroviral (ARV) therapy, especially after the introduction of second‐generation integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs). Despite these advances, however, chronic immune activation and exhaustion, marked by programmed cell death 1 (PD‐1) and programmed death ligand 1 (PD‐L1) upregulation ...

SITE-SPECIFIC RECOMBINATION OF THE MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSISPROPHAGE-LIKE ELEMENT PHIRV1 [PDF]
The site-specific recombination systems of bacteriophages and other mobile elements fall into two categories that are named for the integrase protein that catalyzes integration and excision of the phage genome.

Abstract Objectives This retrospective, observational, non‐interventional study describes the demographics, characteristics, immunological and virological status, coinfections, healthcare unit of HIV diagnosis and follow‐up status of Ukrainian refugees with newly diagnosed HIV in the Czech Republic, with a special focus on those with a late HIV ...

Effect of Pyrolysis on the Removal of Antibiotic Resistance Genes and Class I Integrons from Municipal Wastewater Biosolids [PDF]
Wastewater biosolids represent a significant reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). While current biosolids treatment technologies can reduce ARG levels in residual wastewater biosolids, observed removal rates vary substantially.

Abstract Objectives Most treatment switches are for simplification from three‐drug (3DR) to dual regimens (2DR). However, a proportion of people with HIV may switch back to 3DR, like bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) after 2DR.

CARE1, a TY3-gypsy long terminal repeat retrotransposon in the food legume chickpea (Cicer arietinum L) [PDF]
We report a novel Ty3-gypsy long terminal repeat retrotransposon CARE1 (_Cicer arietinum_ retro-element 1) in chickpea. This 5920-bp AT-rich (63%) element carries 723-bp 5' and 897-bp 3' LTRs respectively flanking an internal region of 4300-bp.
