The Virome of Cerebrospinal Fluid: Viruses Where We Once Thought There Were None. [PDF]
, 2019 Traditionally, medicine has held that some human body sites are sterile and that the introduction of microbes to these sites results in infections. This paradigm shifted significantly with the discovery of the human microbiome and acceptance of these ...

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 ...

Genome diversity of marine phages recovered from Mediterranean metagenomes: Size matters [PDF]
, 2017 Marine viruses play a critical role not only in the global geochemical cycles but also in the biology and evolution of their hosts. Despite their importance, viral diversity remains underexplored mostly due to sampling and cultivation challenges.

Tailed giant Tupanvirus possesses the most complete translational apparatus of the known virosphere
Nature Communications, 2018 Here we report the discovery of two Tupanvirus strains, the longest tailed Mimiviridae members isolated in amoebae. Their genomes are 1.44–1.51 Mb linear double-strand DNA coding for 1276–1425 predicted proteins.
