Viral metagenomic analysis reveals potential biological hazards in non‐human primates in a zoo
The investigation identifies the presence of Encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV), Baboon endogenous virus (BAV), Human endogenous retrovirus (HERV), and Baboon endogenous virus (BaEV) in non‐human primates (NHPs) at the Zoo, indicating potential zoonotic threats.

Integrase-mediated spacer acquisition during CRISPR–Cas adaptive immunity
Bacteria and archaea insert spacer sequences acquired from foreign DNAs into CRISPR loci to generate immunological memory. The Escherichia coli Cas1–Cas2 complex mediates spacer acquisition in vivo, but the molecular mechanism of this process is unknown.

Brujita Integrase: A Simple, Arm-Less, Directionless, and Promiscuous Tyrosine Integrase System [PDF]
Mycobacteriophage Brujita is an unusual temperate phage in which establishment of superinfection immunity is dependent on chromosomal integration. Integration is mediated by a non-canonical tyrosine integrase (Int) lacking an N-terminal domain typically associated with binding to arm-type sites within the phage attachment site (attP).

A Bacterial Sulfotransferase Catalyzes an Unusual Di‐Sulfation in Natural Products Biosynthesis
Herein, a unique sulfotransferase, AdpST, is identified from the adp biosynthetic gene clusters (BGC) in Streptomyces davaonensis DSM101723 and demonstrates that AdpST possesses di‐sulfation activity, which is unprecedented for bacterial phosphoadenosine‐5’‐phosphosulfate (PAPS)‐dependent sulfotransferases. It is further shown that the adp BGC contains

Moloney murine leukemia virus (MLV) infects BALB/c mice and induces T-cell lymphoma in mice. Retroviral integration is mediated by the interaction of the MLV integrase (IN) with members of the bromodomain and extraterminal motif (BET) protein family ...

Bictegravir (BIC) and cabotegravir (CAB) are the latest available HIV integrase inhibitors in clinical trials. The combination of major integrase inhibitor substitutions G140S/Q148H has been shown to confer high-level resistance to the approved integrase

Lamellarin D Acts as an Inhibitor of Type I Collagen Production
COL1A2 gene, encoding type I collagen, is a key target for pulmonary fibrosis. We established a screening system to identify small molecules that inhibit COL1A2 gene expression. Using this system, we screen a library of compounds and identify lamellarin D as a potent inhibitor of COL1A2 expression, suggesting lamellarin D is a promising new lung ...

Evolution of Integrase Resistance During Failure of Integrase Inhibitor-Based Antiretroviral Therapy [PDF]
Although integrase inhibitors are highly effective in the management of drug-resistant HIV, some patients fail to achieve durable viral suppression. The long-term consequences of integrase inhibitor failure have not been well defined.We identified 29 individuals who exhibited evidence of incomplete viral suppression on a regimen containing an integrase
