Phages and human health: More than idle hitchhikers [PDF]
, 2019 Bacteriophages, or phages, are viruses that infect bacteria and archaea. Phages have diverse morphologies and can be coded in DNA or RNA and as single or double strands with a large range of genome sizes. With the increasing use of metagenomic sequencing

Gut, 2023 Objectives Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of unknown aetiology. Gut virome dysbiosis is fundamental in UC progression, although its role in the early phases of the disease is far from fully understood.

Glycosylation and the global virome
Molecular Ecology, 2022 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.

Virome Sequencing of the Human Intestinal Mucosal–Luminal Interface
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020 While the human gut virome has been increasingly explored in recent years, nearly all studies have been limited to fecal sampling. The mucosal–luminal interface has been established as a viable sample type for profiling the microbial biogeography of the ...

Virome in the Lungs: The Role of Anelloviruses in Childhood Respiratory Diseases
Microorganisms, 2021 More recently, increasing attention has been directed to exploring the function of the global virome in health and disease. Currently, by new molecular techniques, such as metagenomic DNA sequencing, the virome has been better unveiled.

Macrobiota — helminths as active participants and partners of the microbiota in host intestinal homeostasis [PDF]
, 2016 Important insights have recently been gained in our understanding of the intricate relationship in the intestinal milieu between the vertebrate host mucosal immune response, commensal bacteria, and helminths. Helminths are metazoan worms (macrobiota) and
