The Pangenome Structure of Escherichia coli: Comparative Genomic Analysis of E. coli Commensal and Pathogenic Isolates

TL;DR: Pangenomic calculations indicate that E. coli genomic diversity represents an open pangenome model containing a reservoir of more than 13,000 genes, many of which may be uncharacterized but important virulence factors, which should provide the basis for future functional work on this important group of pathogens.
Journal ArticleDOI

The origins of acquired immune deficiency syndrome viruses: where and when?

TL;DR: The inferred geographical origin of HIV-1 and the timing of the cross-species transmission are inconsistent with the suggestion that oral polio vaccines, putatively contaminated with viruses from chimpanzees in eastern equatorial Africa in the late 1950s, could be responsible for the origin of acquired immune deficiency syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive identification of essential Staphylococcus aureus genes using Transposon-Mediated Differential Hybridisation (TMDH)

TL;DR: A robust microarray and PCR-based method, Transposon-Mediated Differential Hybridisation (TMDH), that uses novel bioinformatics to identify transposon inserts in genome-wide libraries is developed and determined the first comprehensive list of S. aureus essential genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic analysis of secretion systems

TL;DR: Interestingly, genomic analyses have also hinted at the existence of a dedicated protein secretion system in Gram-positive bacteria, targeting members of the WXG100/ESAT-6 family of proteins, and have revealed an unexpectedly wide distribution of sortase-driven protein-targeting systems.
