CRISPR/Cas9‐edited tumor‐associated immune cells in cancer immunotherapy
Abstract Immuno‐oncology represents an emerging field that has significantly transformed tumor therapeutics, with immune cells serving as the cellular foundations of cancer immunotherapy. Due to its high efficiency and sensitivity, CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing is a highly promising technique for precise and rapid gene modification.

Development and Application of a Prophage Integrase Typing Scheme for Group B Streptococcus
Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is a gram-positive pathogen mainly affecting humans, cattle, and fishes. Mobile genetic elements play an important role in the evolution of GBS, its adaptation to host species and niches, and its pathogenicity.

Characterization of HIV-1 Integrase Reactions with Viral DNA [PDF]
HIV-1 integrase (integrase) catalyzes the insertion of viral DNA into human chromosomes and is a focus for development of anti-integrase inhibitors to combat HIV infection. Integrase catalyzes two steps, a DNA-end cleavage reaction (3’-processing), and a

The Molecular Biology of HIV Integrase [PDF]
Integration of viral DNA into cellular DNA is an essential step in the replication cycle of HIV and other retroviruses. The first antiviral drugs that target integrase, the viral enzyme that catalyzes DNA integration, have recently been approved and more are in the pipeline. These drugs bind to an intermediate in DNA integration called the intasome, in

Abstract Background Erectile dysfunction in people living with HIV is a multifactorial disease, but the role of penile vascular status assessed by dynamic penile color Doppler echography is underexplored. Objectives This study assessed penile vascular status in young males living with HIV experiencing erectile dysfunction, comparing them to HIV ...

Comparative genomics of Shiga toxin encoding bacteriophages [PDF]
Background Stx bacteriophages are responsible for driving the dissemination of Stx toxin genes (stx) across their bacterial host range. Lysogens carrying Stx phages can cause severe, lifethreatening disease and Stx toxin is an integral virulence factor.

Progressive feline leukaemia virus (FeLV) infection dramatically shortens the lives of infected cats, causing acquired immunodeficiency, aplastic anaemia, lymphoma, leukaemia and other myeloproliferative diseases. The potential impact of regressive FeLV infection on the development of disease remains largely unknown, although there is evidence it ...

White–Sutton Syndrome: Insight of an Italian Cohort of 19 Subjects
New insights into White–Sutton syndrome with a collection of 19 Italian patients. Due to its complexity, we stress the importance of a systematic evaluation following the diagnosis and a thoughtful management of patients. Preliminary genotype–phenotype correlation analysis suggests the association between disruptive splicing variants and more severe ...

Comprehensive Analysis of HIV-1 Integrase Resistance-Related Mutations in African Countries
The growing emergence of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) HIV drug resistance in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) led to the World Health Organization (WHO) recommending, in 2018, a transition to dolutegravir (DTG) as a first-line ...
