Conformational spread as a mechanism for cooperativity in the bacterial flagellar switch [PDF]
The bacterial flagellar switch that controls the direction of flagellar rotation during chemotaxis has a highly cooperative response. This has previously been understood in terms of the classic two-state, concerted model of allosteric regulation.

A dose-dependent plasma signature of the safety and immunogenicity of the rVSV-Ebola vaccine in Europe and Africa. [PDF]
The 2014-2015 Ebola epidemic affected several African countries, claiming more than 11,000 lives and leaving thousands with ongoing sequelae. Safe and effective vaccines could prevent or limit future outbreaks.

Measuring Genetic Robustness in Vesicular Stomatitis Virus
Genetic robustness is the ability of a genome to incorporate mutations with the result of no fitness changes. Thus, more robust viruses have an increased neutral mutation rate.

Eradication of Swine Vesicular Disease in Italy
Swine vesicular disease (SVD) is a contagious viral disease of pigs clinically indistinguishable from other vesicular diseases, such as foot and mouth disease, vesicular stomatitis, vesicular exanthema of swine, and idiopathic vesicular disease. In Italy,

Bat Employs a Conserved MDA5 Gene to Trigger Antiviral Innate Immune Responses
Bats are important hosts for various zoonotic viral diseases. However, they rarely show signs of disease infection with such viruses. As the first line for virus control, the innate immune system of bats attracted our full attention.
