This study identifies retroviral sequences in guinea pig genomes and demonstrates viral RNA expression in lymphomas, suggesting a potential role in neoplasia.

The paper genetically classifies 525 Picornavirales genomes and 'picorna-like' viruses using multiple sequence and structural analyses, revealing support for existing families and six novel families, along with 32 new genera.

This study shows that incorporating collagen into biofilms of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Burkholderia pseudomallei increases their elasticity and resistance to phagocytosis.

This study identifies 3,560 uncharacterized protein sequences from public databases likely derived from RNA viral RdRp, including new endogenous viral elements and potential false positives.

This study identifies a novel ilarvirus protein, CP-RT, produced via stop codon readthrough, which suppresses RNA silencing and is essential for persistent infection.

The paper identifies MAT2A as a critical host factor for BKPyV infection through a CRISPR/Cas9 screen and shows a small molecule inhibitor of MAT2A is a potent antiviral drug.

CIAlign is a command line tool that cleans, interprets, and visualizes multiple sequence alignments by removing problematic regions and providing visual feedback.

This study investigates how the 2A protein of Theilovirus stimulates ribosomal frameshifting by analyzing its interaction with an RNA pseudoknot and using ribosome profiling.

CGAT-core is a Python framework for building scalable, reproducible computational biology workflows, demonstrated with an RNAseq analysis pipeline.
