Sentences with word «virome»

A comparison of respiratory viromes of clinically affected and normal chickens will help delineate the viral load in their upper respiratory tracts and this information will help formulate strategies to control these infections.

A similarly ambitious global virome project, he adds, «could expect to have have even greater payback.»

The goal of the pilot study is to successfully demonstrate the use of high - throughput metagenomic sequencing technologies to characterize the gut microbiome and virome in this cohort.

The Global Virome Project, to be launched in 2018, aims to close that gap.

With this background, we hypothesize that respiratory virome of backyard chickens contains signatures of common and novel pathogens and that the lack of knowledge on these pathogens leads to a panic situation among SFOs.

Each one's gut virome was also very stable: Samples taken a year apart shared 95 percent of the same viral genes, Gordon reported in Nature last July.

The researchers don't know where the viruses come from or what causes viromes to differ so dramatically from person to person.

Rapidly changing viromes would have signaled an «arms race» in which threatened bacteria were adapting to survive phage attacks, and the phages were adapting to avoid bacterial defenses.

Enteric Virome Sensing — Its Role in Intestinal Homeostasis and Immunity — Rebecca N Metzger — Viruses

EzMap: a simple pipeline for reproducible analysis of the human virome — Patrick Czeczko — Bioinformatics

The analysis of the oral DNA virome reveals which viruses are widespread and rare among healthy young adults in Valencia (Spain)-- Vicente Pérez - Brocal — PLOS ONE

The complex viromes of different human as well as wild and domesticated animal populations are also characterized to allow future changes associated with disease outbreak to be rapidly identified.

«It's ambitious,» says Peter Daszak, president of EcoHealth Alliance in New York City and a member of the Global Virome Project's steering committee.

Quite a few articles on viruses today: The identification of human - like hormones in viral genomes that can bind to human and murine receptors; identification of multiple Antarctic sea - ice bacteriophages that are only active in the cold; bacterial immunity loss explains bacteria / phage co-existence; and the plans for a global virome project.

Kristine Wylie investigates the viruses that set up residence in and on the human body, collectively known as the virome.

Likewise, some viruses take up residence in the body, creating a virome whose influence on health and disease is just beginning to be studied.

«The fact that the virome has been overlooked for 10 years is the elephant in the room in microbiome research,» says Dutilh.

The idea that our viral cargoes — known collectively as the virome — vary from person to person came from a 2010 study that examined the similarities between the gut bacteria of twins.

Whatever it is, says Dutilh, it highlights the importance of the virome as a mechanism of control one level higher than bacterial communities.

But there was a big caveat: only 19 per cent of the virome from the group matched anything from our databases of known viruses.

«It has been a very short time since recent technological developments have allowed us to begin uncovering the huge diversity that the viral world contains,» says Alejandro Reyes at Washington University in St Louis, Missouri, who was involved in the virome study on the twins.

To assess geographical diversity in marine viral communities, Sullivan and his team looked at double - stranded DNA viral genomic sequence data, or viromes, and whole viral community morphological data across 43 Tara Oceans expedition samples.

And each woman's set of viromes was distinctive, differing even from the viromes of her identical twin, the researchers report in the 15 July issue of Nature.

«The fact that the viromes didn't change,» says Gordon, «suggests this is a temperate environment» in which the bacteria and their phages coexist in peace.

Only 20 % of the viromes matched existing databases; the rest came from previously unknown viruses.

The researchers collected and purified the poop three times over the course of a year — to better track the microbial community's changes over time — and then sequenced the viral DNA, or viromes, the poop contained.

Equally surprising, Gordon says, was the communities» consistency: the viral makeup changed less than 5 % over the course of the year, and the viromes of the most abundant phages changed less than 1 %.

Mapping the virome in wild - caught Aedes aegypti from Cairns and Bangkok — Martha Zakrzewski — Nature

In an article published in Science magazine today, Daszak and a group of like - minded scientists described a new initiative, called the Virome project, that would identify and catalogue hundreds of thousands of yet - to - be-discovered viruses found in wild animals.

The virome is basically every virus present in an individual's intestinal tract.

Dr. Barrs and her colleagues are trying to learn if FPV - infected cats also are impacted by the presence of other viruses or alterations in the virome.

Dr. Vanessa Barrs at the University of Sydney in Australia, a Morris Animal Foundation - funded researcher, is tackling this problem by looking at the virome of sick cats.

Researchers will compare the entire virus population (the virome) from the intestinal tracts of sick and healthy cats to help determine whether new or known strains of virus are contributing to these new outbreaks.

When an animal gets sick, like a cat with FPV, it can dramatically change the makeup of the virome.
