Metagenomic characterization of swine slurry in a North American swine farm operation

Scientific Reports, 2021
Modern day large-scale, high-density farming environments are inherently susceptible to viral outbreaks, inadvertently creating conditions that favor increased pathogen transmission and potential zoonotic spread. Metagenomic sequencing has proven to be a

Comparative analysis of the extent of protein–protein interactions in icosahedral viral capsids

Protein Science, Volume 34, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Nonenveloped viruses package, carry, and deliver their genomes to the targeted cells using protein shells known as capsids. The viral capsids come in different shapes and sizes, most exhibiting helical or icosahedral symmetries. Here, we analyzed 634 icosahedral capsids at high resolution (<4 Å) from 39 virus families with T‐numbers ranging ...

MHC Diversity Across Time and Space

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
The article discusses the importance of genetic diversity, particularly in the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) loci, in maintaining evolution and protecting against infectious disease. We review the emerging research on geographic and temporal patterns of MHC diversity in natural populations and highlight the consequences of lower MHC diversity ...

Initiation of RNA Polymerization and Polymerase Encapsidation by a Small dsRNA Virus. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2016
During the replication cycle of double-stranded (ds) RNA viruses, the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) replicates and transcribes the viral genome from within the viral capsid.

Etiology, clinical features, and epidemiological analysis of diarrhea patients visiting a gastrointestinal clinic in a comprehensive hospital in Beijing, China, in 2023

iLABMED, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 197-204, September 2024.
(1) We investigated the clinical features and epidemiology of diarrhea patients and analyze the current distribution of 20 enteropathogens causing diarrhea in a comprehensive hospital in Beijing, China, in 2023. (2) The incidence of diarrhea was related to hot weather and foodborne illness.

Metagenomic Insights into the Sewage RNA Virosphere of a Large City

Viruses, 2020
Sewage-associated viruses can cause several human and animal diseases, such as gastroenteritis, hepatitis, and respiratory infections. Therefore, their detection in wastewater can reflect current infections within the source population. To date, no viral

Occurrence of avian reovirus and picobirnavirus in wild birds from an environmental protection area in the Brazilian Amazon [PDF]

Acta Amazonica
Wild birds have great prominence in the transmission of diseases to humans, mainly due to their ease of access to human populations, raising concerns about the potential impact of that proximity on public health.
