Facilitating crRNA Design by Integrating DNA Interaction Features of CRISPR‐Cas12a System
This study introduces a novel approach combining molecular dynamics simulations and neural network modeling to predict the Cas12a trans‐cleavage activity. By integrating sequence and molecular interaction features, prediction accuracy is enhanced, and identify key features affecting Cas12a trans‐cleavage activity.

An Extreme Value Theory approach for the early detection of time clusters with application to the surveillance of Salmonella [PDF]
We propose a method to generate a warning system for the early detection of time clusters applied to public health surveillance data. This new method relies on the evaluation of a return period associated to any new count of a particular infection reported to a surveillance system. The method is applied to Salmonella surveillance in France and compared

Salmonella infection - prevention and treatment by antibiotics and probiotic yeasts: a review.
Global Salmonella infection, especially in developing countries, is a health and economic burden. The use of antibiotic drugs in treating the infection is proving less effective due to the alarming rise of antibiotic-resistant strains of Salmonella, the ...

The ssLAMP method amplifies the nucleic acid of pathogen and identifies SNP mutations. By combining the portable detection device with smartphone‐based analysis software, enables rapid, on‐site SNP detection and genotyping of SARS‐Cov‐2 Omicron variants, providing a cost‐effective and field‐deployable solution for precise pathogen identification in ...

Detecting and monitoring foodborne illness outbreaks: Twitter communications and the 2015 U.S. Salmonella outbreak linked to imported cucumbers [PDF]
This research uses Twitter, as a social media device, to track communications related to the 2015 U.S. foodborne illness outbreak linked to Salmonella in imported cucumbers from Mexico. The relevant Twitter data are analyzed in light of the timeline of the official announcements made by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Host resistance factor SLC11A1 restricts Salmonella growth through magnesium deprivation
Magnesium for Salmonella growth In mammals, macrophages are a first line of defense against pathogenic bacteria like Salmonella. These immune cells possess a metal-ion transporter called SLC11A1 or NRAMP1, which is known to be involved in infection ...

Elicitation of expert knowledge on controlling Salmonella in the pork chain [PDF]
Salmonella is one of the most important risks for food safety, and pork is one of the sources of human salmonellosis. A chain approach is essential to reduce Salmonella in pork products.

The bacterial Type VI secretion system (T6SS) emerges as a sophisticated virulence mechanism, leveraging the dual‐function effector TkeA from Yersinia pseudotuberculosis. TkeA concurrently damages rival bacteria and host cell DNA, triggering the host's cGAS‐STING‐TNF pathway and inducing apoptosis.

Examining marginal sequence similarities between bacterial type III secretion system and Trypanosoma cruzi surface proteins: Horizontal gene transfer or convergent evolution? [PDF]
The cell invasion mechanism of Trypanosoma cruzi has similarities with some intracellular bacterial taxa especially regarding calcium mobilization. This mechanism is not observed in other trypanosomatids, suggesting that the molecules involved in this type of cell invasion were a product of (1) acquired by horizontal gene transfer; (2) secondary loss ...
