Applications of viral metagenomics in the veterinary field [PDF]
Viral metagenomics provide a powerful technology to investigate the viral flora of healthy and sick animals. Using these methodologies, we gain a better understanding in the etiology of diseases, as well as deepen our knowledge into the viruses ...

Mining of Thermostable Alpha-amylase Gene from Geothermal Springs using a Metagenomics Approach [PDF]
The geothermal springs are said to contain the greatest diversity of undiscovered microorganisms, making them the best source for enzymes with economic significance. The untapped microbial diversity living in the geothermal springs can be mined for novel

Next generation sequencing technologies led to the discovery of numerous new microbe species in diverse environmental samples. Some of the new species contain genes never encountered before. Some of these genes encode proteins with novel functions, and some of these genes encode proteins that perform some well-known function in a novel way.

Recent years have seen the classification and reclassification of many viruses related to the model enterobacterial phage P2. Here, we report the identification of a prophage (Smhb1) that infects Salinivibrio kushneri BNH isolated from a Namib Desert ...

A Bioinformatician's Guide to Metagenomics [PDF]
SUMMARYAs random shotgun metagenomic projects proliferate and become the dominant source of publicly available sequence data, procedures for the best practices in their execution and analysis become increasingly important. Based on our experience at the Joint Genome Institute, we describe the chain of decisions accompanying a metagenomic project from ...

Exploratory experimentation and scientific practice: Metagenomics and the proteorhodopsin case [PDF]
Exploratory experimentation and high-throughput molecular biology appear to have considerable affinity for each other. Included in the latter category is metagenomics, which is the DNA-based study of diverse microbial communities from a vast range of non-
