The effects of stress on gut virome: Implications on infectious disease and systemic disorders
MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 13, Issue 5, October 2024.Stress conditions can weaken the host's immune system, affecting the entire gut–brain axis. Concurrently, disruptions in the composition of the gut microbiota are associated with exacerbations of diseases. This review explores the complex interplay between stress, gut virome, and the host immune system.

Characterizations of the multi-kingdom gut microbiota in Chinese patients with gouty arthritis
BMC Microbiology, 2023 Objective The gut microbial composition has been linked to metabolic and autoimmune diseases, including arthritis. However, there is a dearth of knowledge on the gut bacteriome, mycobiome, and virome in patients with gouty arthritis (GA).

Coccolithoviruses: A Review of Cross-Kingdom Genomic Thievery and Metabolic Thuggery
Viruses, 2017 Coccolithoviruses (Phycodnaviridae) infect and lyse the most ubiquitous and successful coccolithophorid in modern oceans, Emiliania huxleyi. So far, the genomes of 13 of these giant lytic viruses (i.e., Emiliania huxleyi viruses—EhVs) have been sequenced,

Dinucleotide biases in the genomes of prokaryotic and eukaryotic dsDNA viruses and their hosts
Molecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 6, March 2024.Abstract The genomes of cellular organisms display CpG and TpA dinucleotide composition biases. Such biases have been poorly investigated in dsDNA viruses. Here, we show that in dsDNA virus, bacterial, and eukaryotic genomes, the representation of TpA and CpG dinucleotides is strongly dependent on genomic G + C content.
