Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Virus evolution: the mutualism-antagonism continuum of virus-virus interactions

open access: yesVirologie
The conference gathered experts from many fields working on various aspects of virus-virus interactions, ranging from mutualistic to parasitic, and harnessing different approaches to studying virus evolution (e.g., molecular biology, theory, mathematical modelling, genomics, phylogenetics, clinical studies, laboratory experiments).

Evolution of lamivudine resistance in human immunodeficiency virus type 1-infected individuals:the relative roles of drift and selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) rapidly develops resistance to lamivudine during monotherapy, typically resulting in the appearance at position 184 in reverse transcriptase (RT) of isoleucine instead of the wild-type methionine (M184I) early ...

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Generation of enhanced gene delivery vectors by directed evolution of adeno-associated virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Despite promising advance in the development of viral vectors based on AAV for human gene therapy, several major hurdles for a more general use remain.

Sequence diversity and potential recombination events in the coat protein gene of Apple stem pitting virus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The variability of the Apple stem pitting virus (ASPV) coat protein (CP) gene was investigated. The CP gene of ten virus isolates from apple and pear trees was sequenced.

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

2b or Not 2b: Experimental Evolution of Functional Exogenous Sequences in a Plant RNA Virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
International audienceHorizontal gene transfer (HGT) is pervasive in viruses and thought to be a key mechanism in their evolution. On the other hand, strong selective constraints against increasing genome size are an impediment for HGT, rapidly purging ...

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

Virus Evolution and Genetics

open access: yes, 2017
Viruses are very diverse and they infect organisms from all domains of life and across all ecosystems, but related viruses often infect very different types of organisms, pointing to their very ancient origins. Three commonly proposed mechanisms for the origins of viruses are: Viruses descended from primitive precellular life forms; viruses are escaped
