The rapid identification and genomic analysis of zoonotic pathogens are critical for safeguarding public health and controlling outbreaks. PathoBase, an advanced computational platform, provides a comprehensive, efficient, and freely accessible tool for genomic data analysis based on core-genome multilocus sequence…
Sulforaphane, an organosulfur isothiocyanate derived from cruciferous vegetables, extended lifespan in the roundworm C. elegans by more than 50% at the most effective doses, researchers report. The compound, previously shown to inhibit inflammation, oxidative stress, and cancer cell growth, was tested across…
Newswise — Hamilton, ON, Oct. 23, 2024 – Bacteria and fungi from the wings of bats could play a significant role in saving them from white-nose syndrome (WNS), a fungal disease affecting the skin of wings and muzzle, which has nearly wiped out vulnerable…
"This is where our work adds value. Before, if we just detected Eimeria, we wouldn't necessarily be able to say whether it was causing problems," Bennett said. "But by analyzing changes in the microbiome that are associated with Eimeria load…
Wheat stripe rust poses a major threat to global food security. Discovery of disease resistance genes from wild relatives enables multigene stacking that could enhance durability. Here we use map-based cloning and long-read sequencing to isolate two... Uncover the latest…
Oxford scientists have directly observed individual virus-like particles assembling step by step, revealing how simple molecular interactions reliably build complex protein shells.
AI-designed bacteriophages used on human for first time. The American startup Radical Numerics announced that AI-designed bacteriophages have been administered to a human for the first time. The patient was suffering from an antibiotic-resistant infection caused by E. coli. Bacteriophages are…
Researchers have developed a new CRISPR-based gene-drive system that more efficiently inactivates a gene rendering bacteria antibiotic-resistant. The new system leverages technology developed by UC San Diego biologists in insects and mammals that biases genetic inheritance of preferred traits called…
