Influenza Virus Drug Resistance: A Time-Sampled Population Genetics Perspective

Jeffrey David Jensen, Matthieu Foll, Claudia Bank, Hyunjin Shim

Author Summary In recent years, considerable attention has been given to the evolution of drug resistance in the influenza A H1N1 strain. As a major annual cause of morbidity and mortality, combined with the rapid global spread of drug resistance, influenz ...

UVC inactivation of dsDNA and ssRNA viruses in water: UV fluences and a qPCR-based approach to evaluate decay on viral infectivity

Tamar Kohn, Anna Carratala Ripolles

Disinfection by low-pressure monochromatic ultraviolet (UVC) radiation (253.7 nm) became an important technique to sanitize drinking water and also wastewater in tertiary treatments. In order to prevent the transmission of waterborne viral diseases, the an ...

Rapid Intrahost Evolution of Human Cytomegalovirus Is Shaped by Demography and Positive Selection

Jeffrey David Jensen

Populations of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), a large DNA virus, are highly polymorphic in patient samples, which may allow for rapid evolution within human hosts. To understand HCMV evolution, longitudinally sampled genomic populations from the urine and p ...

Influence of HLA-C Expression Level on HIV Control

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren

A variant upstream of human leukocyte antigen C (HLA-C) shows the most significant genome-wide effect on HIV control in European Americans and is also associated with the level of HLA-C expression. We characterized the differential cell surface expression ...

A genome-to-genome analysis of associations between human genetic variation, HIV-1 sequence diversity, and viral control

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren, Istvan Bartha

HIV-1 sequence diversity is affected by selection pressures arising from host genomic factors. Using paired human and viral data from 1071 individuals, we ran >3000 genome-wide scans, testing for associations between host DNA polymorphisms, HIV-1 sequence ...

Focal expression of adeno-associated viral-mutant tau induces widespread impairment in an APP mouse model

Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider, Jean-Charles Bensadoun

Adeno-associated virus serotype 6 (AAV6) viral vectors encoding mutant and normal tau were used to produce focal tau pathology. Two mutant forms of tau were used; the P301S tau mutation is associated with neurofibrillary tangle formation in humans, and the ...

Photoinactivation of virus on iron-oxide coated sand: enhancing inactivation in sunlit waters

Tamar Kohn, Brian Pecson, Loïc Decrey

Adsorption onto iron oxides can enhance the removal of waterborne viruses in constructed wetlands and soils. If reversible adsorption is not coupled with inactivation, however, infective viruses may be released when changes in solution conditions cause des ...

Adeno-Associated Virus Activates an Innate Immune Response in Normal Human Cells but Not in Osteosarcoma Cells

Peter Martin Beard

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a small, DNA-containing dependovirus with promising potential as a gene delivery vehicle. Given the variety of applications of AAV-based vectors in the treatment of genetic disorders, numerous studies have focused on the imm ...

Application of broad-spectrum resequencing microarray for genotyping rhabdoviruses

Stewart Cole

The rapid and accurate identification of pathogens is critical in the control of infectious disease. To this end, we analyzed the capacity for viral detection and identification of a newly described high-density resequencing microarray (RMA), termed Pathog ...
