Gustavo Palacios,Julian Druce,Lei Du,Thomas Tran,Chris Birch,Thomas Briese,Sean Conlan,Phuong-Lan Quan,Jeffrey Hui,John C. Marshall,Jan Fredrik Simons,Michael Egholm,Christopher D. Paddock,Wun-Ju Shieh,Cynthia S. Goldsmith,Sherif R. Zaki,Mike Catton,W. Ian Lipkin +17 more
TL;DR: The use of high-throughput sequencing during an outbreak of disease facilitated the identification of a new arenavirus transmitted through solid-organ transplantation, related to lymphocytic choriomeningitis viruses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tracking the COVID-19 pandemic in Australia using genomics.
Torsten Seemann,Courtney R Lane,Norelle L Sherry,Sebastián Duchêne,Anders Gonçalves da Silva,Leon Caly,Michelle Sait,Susan A Ballard,Kristy A. Horan,Mark B. Schultz,Tuyet Hoang,Marion Easton,Sally Dougall,Timothy P. Stinear,Julian Druce,Mike Catton,Brett Sutton,Annaliese van Diemen,Charles Alpren,Deborah A Williamson,Benjamin P Howden +20 more
TL;DR: High-throughput genomics for SARS-CoV-2 is reported, sequencing 80% of cases in Victoria, Australia between 6 January and 14 April 2020 to identify clusters and impact of interventions, including large clusters associated with social venues, healthcare and cruise ships.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of Apoptosis by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 7a Protein Is Dependent on Its Interaction with the Bcl-XL Protein
Ying-Xim Tan,Timothy H.P. Tan,Marvin J.-R. Lee,Puay-Yoke Tham,Vithiagaran Gunalan,Julian Druce,Chris Birch,Mike Catton,Nai Yang Fu,Victor C. Yu,Yee-Joo Tan +10 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the overexpression of Bcl-XL, a prosurvival member of the B cl-2 family, blocks 7a-induced apoptosis, suggesting that the mechanism for apoptosis induction by 7a is at the level of or upstream from the Bcl -2 family.
Journal ArticleDOI
SARS–associated Coronavirus Replication in Cell Lines
Matthew Kaye,Julian Druce,Thomas Tran,Renata Kostecki,Doris Chibo,Jessica Morris,Mike Catton,Chris Birch +7 more
TL;DR: Virus can replicate in several common cell lines, sometimes without cytopathic effect, and in some cases without any effect at all.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laboratory diagnosis and surveillance of human respiratory viruses by PCR in Victoria, Australia, 2002-2003.
Julian Druce,Thomas Tran,Heath Kelly,Matthew Kaye,Doris Chibo,Renata Kostecki,Abdul Amiri,Mike Catton,Chris Birch +8 more
TL;DR: Evidence for the human metapneumovirus (hMPV) was only sought in the second year of the study and revealed low‐level circulation of this virus, mainly in the cooler months among the very young and adult populations.
