Pathogenic Escherichia coli Virulome in Top Soil Improvers and Irrigation Waters Devoted to Leafy Vegetable Production: Hazard Assessment From a Case Study in Italy

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Escherichia coli pathotype virulotyping to assess if combined top soil improver and water inputs would potentially lead to hybrid strains with shuffled virulence features in ready‐to‐eat vegetables. This is to support the transition toward safe and sustainable food production systems.

Extreme Scale De Novo Metagenome Assembly [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Metagenome assembly is the process of transforming a set of short, overlapping, and potentially erroneous DNA segments from environmental samples into the accurate representation of the underlying microbiomes's genomes. State-of-the-art tools require big shared memory machines and cannot handle contemporary metagenome datasets that exceed Terabytes in ...

DeepMicrobes: taxonomic classification for metagenomics with deep learning

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2019
Taxonomic classification is a crucial step for metagenomics applications including disease diagnostics, microbiome analyses, and outbreak tracing. Yet it is unknown what deep learning architecture can capture microbial genome-wide features relevant to ...

MetaHMM: A Webserver for Identifying Novel Genes with Specified Functions in Metagenomic Samples [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
The fast and affordable sequencing of large clinical and environmental metagenomic datasets opens up new horizons in medical and biotechnological applications. It is believed that today we have described only about 1\% of the microorganisms on the Earth, therefore, metagenomic analysis mostly deals with unknown species in the samples.

Quantitative metagenomics reveals unique gut microbiome biomarkers in ankylosing spondylitis

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2017
The assessment and characterization of the gut microbiome has become a focus of research in the area of human autoimmune diseases. Ankylosing spondylitis is an inflammatory autoimmune disease and evidence showed that ankylosing spondylitis may be a ...

The estrobolome: Estrogen‐metabolizing pathways of the gut microbiome and their relation to breast cancer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Increasing evidence links the gut microbiome to carcinogenesis. Disruptions in estrogen regulation by the estrobolome—gut microbiota with estrogen‐related functions—may promote breast cancer. However, precise information on estrobolome targets and their underlying mechanisms is limited. This review identifies relevant targets for measuring the
