“Therapeutic applications of the ‘NPGP’ family of viral 2As”
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Reviews in Medical Virology"
DOI: 10.1002/rmv.2001
Abstract: Oligopeptide “2A” and “2A‐like” sequences (“2As”; 18‐25aa) are found in a range of RNA virus genomes controlling protein biogenesis through “recoding” of the host‐cell translational apparatus. Insertion of multiple 2As within a single open reading… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2017.05.076
Abstract: Phospholipases A2 inhibitors (PLIs) produced by venomous and non-venomous snakes play essential role in this resistance. These endogenous inhibitors may be classified by their fold in PLIα, PLIβ and PLIγ. Phospholipases A2 (PLA2s) develop myonecrosis… read more here.

Assembly of chromosome-scale contigs by efficiently resolving repetitive sequences with long reads
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Nature Communications"
DOI: 10.1038/s41467-019-13355-3
Abstract: The abundant repetitive sequences in complex eukaryotic genomes cause fragmented assemblies, which lose value as reference genomes, often due to incomplete gene sequences and unanchored or mispositioned contigs on chromosomes. Here we report a genome… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/molbev/msx176
Abstract: Rabies is an important zoonotic disease distributed worldwide. A key question in rabies epidemiology is the identification of factors that impact virus dispersion. Here we apply new analytical methods, based on phylogeographic reconstructions of viral… read more here.
