Virus-host relationships of marine single-celled eukaryotes resolved from metatranscriptomics [PDF]
, 2017 Establishing virus–host relationships has historically relied on culture-dependent approaches. Here we report on the use of marine metatranscriptomics to probe virus–host relationships.

Amoebal pathogens as emerging causal agents of pneumonia [PDF]
, 2017 Despite using modern microbiological diagnostic approaches, the aetiological agents of pneumonia remain unidentified in about 50% of cases. Some bacteria that grow poorly or not at all in axenic media used in routine clinical bacteriology laboratory but ...

A Family of Novel Cyclophilins, Conserved in the Mimivirus Genus of the Giant DNA Viruses
Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2018 The cyclophilin (abbreviated here as CYN) family represents a large group of protein prolyl isomerase (PPIase), many of which are also chaperones that promote proper folding of a large variety of client proteins. Over the past few years, megaviruses with
