Cabotegravir, the Long-Acting Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitor, Potently Inhibits Human T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 Transmission in vitro

Frontiers in Medicine, 2022
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is a deltaretrovirus most prevalent in southwestern Japan, sub-Saharan Africa, Australia, South America, and the Caribbean. Latest figures approximate 10 million people worldwide to be infected with HTLV-1.

The Natural Product Corramycin Acts as a DNA Gyrase Poison and Overcomes Fluoroquinolone Resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Corramycin, a myxobacterial natural product antibiotic, exhibits potent bactericidal activity against multidrug‐resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The compound hijacks bacterial transporters such as BacA and OppABCD to enter the cell and inhibits DNA synthesis through a previously unrecognized mode of DNA gyrase poisoning, locking the enzyme in an ...

Inhibition of HIV-1 replication by primer RNA packaging inhibitors

mBio
An essential step in the life cycle of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is the packaging of tRNA3Lys during viral assembly. This step, which requires the assembly of a ternary complex consisting of GagPol, mitochondrial lysyl-tRNA synthetase ...

Distribution of Prophages in the Oenococcus oeni Species

Microorganisms, 2021
Oenococcus oeni is the most exploited lactic acid bacterium in the wine industry and drives the malolactic fermentation of wines. Although prophage-like sequences have been identified in the species, many are not characterized, and a global view of their

Dual‐line Genome‐scale CRISPR Screening Enables Robust Target Gene Discovery

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A species‐optimized CRISPR platform integrates efficient piggyBac delivery, genome‐scale sgRNA libraries, and parallel screening in two independently engineered Bactrocera dorsalis Cas9 cell lines. Cross‐line consensus analysis filters line‐specific effects, enriches candidates with reproducible in vivo phenotypes, and reveals conserved, species ...

Comprehensive Analysis of HIV-1 Integrase Resistance-Related Mutations in African Countries

Pathogens
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 ...

Pharmacogenomics of dolutegravir: A scoping review of evidence, gaps and clinical implications

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Dolutegravir underpins modern first‐ and second‐line HIV treatment regimens; however, interindividual variability in its disposition and tolerability presents challenges for optimal use. This scoping review mapped current evidence on the pharmacogenomics of dolutegravir, focusing on pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, and methodological limitations ...

RNA‐centric world of retroviruses: unravelling the molecular strategies of genomic RNA packaging

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Retroviruses constitute a unique group of RNA viruses that have profoundly influenced both evolutionary trajectories and biomedical research. Their ability to reverse transcribe and integrate into host genomes has shaped genomic architecture across species and contributed to our understanding of oncogenes, gene regulation, and RNA biology ...
