In vitro and in silico parameters for precise cgMLST typing of Listeria monocytogenes
BMC Genomics, 2022 Background Whole genome sequencing analyzed by core genome multi-locus sequence typing (cgMLST) is widely used in surveillance of the pathogenic bacteria Listeria monocytogenes.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Trait biases in microbial reference genomes
Scientific Data, 2023 AbstractCommon culturing techniques and priorities bias our discovery towards specific traits that may not be representative of microbial diversity in nature. So far, these biases have not been systematically examined. To address this gap, here we use 116,884 publicly available metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs, completeness ≥80%) from 203 surveys ...

eLife, 2020 Human ascariasis is a major neglected tropical disease caused by the nematode Ascaris lumbricoides. We report a 296 megabase (Mb) reference-quality genome comprised of 17,902 protein-coding genes derived from a single, representative Ascaris worm.

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

Development of SSR molecular markers based on the published genome in seashore paspalum
Grass ResearchSeashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum Swartz) is a widely utilized turfgrass in subtropical and tropical regions. To assist germplasm evaluation and breeding new varieties, a study was carried out to identify Simple Sequence Repeats (SSR) sites in the ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Refgenie: a reference genome resource manager
GigaScience, 2020 Abstract Background Reference genome assemblies are essential for high-throughput sequencing analysis projects. Typically, genome assemblies are stored on disk alongside related resources; e.g., many sequence aligners require the assembly to be indexed.
