The RNA Virome of Echinoderms [PDF]
Abstract Echinoderms are a phylum of marine invertebrates that include model organisms, keystone species, and animals commercially harvested for seafood. Despite their scientific, ecological, and economic importance, there is little known about the diversity of RNA viruses that infect echinoderms compared to other ...

The Roles of the Virome in Cancer [PDF]
Viral infections as well as changes in the composition of the intestinal microbiota and virome have been linked to cancer. Moreover, the success of cancer immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors has been correlated with the intestinal microbial composition of patients. The transfer of feces—which contain mainly bacteria and their viruses (phages)—from

Quantitative Temporal Viromics [PDF]
The abundance, localization, modifications, and protein-protein interactions of many host cell and virus proteins can change dynamically throughout the course of any viral infection. Studying these changes is critical for a comprehensive understanding of how viruses replicate and cause disease, as well as for the development of antiviral therapeutics ...

The review is dealt with virome, a viral component of human microbiome. Modern data are discussed that concern the structure of virome, its formation during ontogenesis, the role in disease pathogeneses and in homeostasis maintenance. Special attention is payed to bacteriophages (phagobiome) as dominant members of virome.

Aquarium Viromes: Viromes of Human-Managed Aquatic Systems [PDF]
An aquarium ecosystem is home to many animal species providing conditions similar to native aquatic habitats but under highly controlled management. With a growing interest in understanding the interaction of microbiomes and resident animal health within aquarium environments, we undertook a metagenomic survey of viromes in seven aquarium systems with ...

Exposing the Human Virome [PDF]
As medicine advances, we have come to realize that viral infections early in life can still be playing out in our body decades later, long after the primary infection has ended. New research has indicated that viral infections can precipitate the onset of a diverse array of long-term illnesses, from Alzheimer disease to chronic fatigue syndrome and ...

The Intestinal Virome and Immunity [PDF]
Abstract The composition of the human microbiome is considered a major source of interindividual variation in immunity and, by extension, susceptibility to diseases. Intestinal bacteria have been the major focus of research.

Glycosylation and the global virome
The sugars that coat the outsides of viruses and host cells are key to successful disease transmission, but they remain understudied compared to other molecular features. Understanding the comparative zoology of glycosylation - and harnessing it for predictive science - could help close the molecular gap in zoonotic risk assessment.

The virome of vector mosquitoes
Mosquitoes are the major vectors for arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) of medical importance. Aedes aegypti and A. albopictus are the most prolific and widespread mosquito vectors being responsible for global transmission of dengue, Zika and Chikungunya viruses.

Virome genomics: a tool for defining the human virome
High throughput, deep sequencing assays are powerful tools for gaining insights into virus-host interactions. Sequencing assays can discover novel viruses and describe the genomes of novel and known viruses. Genomic information can predict viral proteins that can be characterized, describe important genes in the host that control infections, and ...
