Integrating chromatin conformation information in a self-supervised learning model improves metagenome binning [PeerJ]

Introduction The rapid proliferation of high-throughput sequencing in metagenomics, combined with the advancement of scalable computational tools, has allowed scientists to digitally isolate tens of thousands of microbial genomes from large collections of metagenomic datasets (Nayfach et al., 2021). Although these genomes are only the tip of the iceberg of…

Genomic screening of 16 UK native bat species through conservationist networks uncovers coronaviruses with zoonotic potential

Sample collection Sampling kits were sent out to various bat rehabilitators in the UK, as described previously56, for the collection of faeces from bats. These faecal samples (0.02–1 g) were immediately stored in 5 ml of RNAlater solution to prevent degradation of RNA. The geographical locations and collection dates for all samples…

Genome sequencing and multifaceted taxonomic analysis of novel strains of violacein-producing bacteria and non-violacein-producing close relatives

Abstract Violacein is a water-insoluble violet pigment produced by various Gram-negative bacteria. The compound and the bacteria that produce it have been gaining attention due to the antimicrobial and proposed antitumour properties of violacein and the possibility that strains producing it may have broad industrial uses. Bacteria that produce violacein…

Butterfly eyespots evolved via cooption of an ancestral gene-regulatory network that also patterns antennae, legs, and wings

Although the hypothesis of gene-regulatory network (GRN) cooption is a plausible model to explain the origin of morphological novelties (1), there has been limited empirical evidence to show that this mechanism led to the origin of any novel trait. Several hypotheses have been proposed for the origin of butterfly eyespots,…
