Evolution of the G+C content frontier in the rat cytomegalovirus genome [PDF]
Within the 230138 bp of the rat cytomegalovirus (RCMV) genome, the G+C content changes abruptly at position 142644, constituting a G+C content frontier. To the left of this point, overall G+C content is 69.2%, and to the right it is only 47.6%.

Analyses of tissue culture adaptation of human Herpesvirus-6A by whole genome deep sequencing redefines the reference sequence and identifies virus entry complex changes [PDF]
Tissue-culture adaptation of viruses can modulate infection. Laboratory passage and bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC)mid cloning of human cytomegalovirus, HCMV, resulted in genomic deletions and rearrangements altering genes encoding the virus entry ...

An Approach to Controlling Inflammation and Coagulation in Pig-to-Baboon Cardiac Xenotransplantation. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Introduction Inflammatory responses and coagulation disorders are a relevant challenge for successful cardiac xenotransplantation on its way to the clinic. To cope with this, an effective and clinically practicable anti‐inflammatory and anti‐coagulatory regimen is needed.

Safety of Xenotransplantation: Development of screening methods and testing for porcine viruses [PDF]
Xenotransplantation using pig cells, tissues or organs might be a promising solution to overcome the shortage for organs suitable for allotransplantation. Because of several reasons, the pig is currently the favoured donor species.

Detection of porcine cytomegalovirus, a roseolovirus, in pig ovaries and follicular fluid: implications for somatic cells nuclear transfer, cloning and xenotransplantation [PDF]
Background Porcine cytomegalovirus (PCMV) is a porcine roseolovirus (PCMV/PRV) which is widely distributed in pigs. Transmission of PCMV/PRV in preclinical xenotransplantations was shown to significantly reduce the survival time of the pig transplants
