In this Science and Society article, Carl Nathan reviews historical collaborations between industry and academic instiutions that developed antimicrobials, and discusses similar strategies that have recently emerged to tackle the crisis of antimicrobial resistance.
These two studies report novel vaccination strategies to elicit antibodies that target the conserved stem region of haemagglutinin in order to generate protective immune responses against multiple influenza subtypes.
This study uses a new tool, VirSorter, to search for virus genomes within all publicly available bacterial and archaeal genomic datasets and finds 264 new candidate viral genera.
Two recent studies report the development of monoclonal antibodies directed against novel epitopes within the viral envelope protein of dengue virus that prevent severe infection in mouse models.
This month's Genome Watch explores recent findings on the global population structure and the origin of the successfulMycobacterium tuberculosisBeijing lineage revealed by high-throughput sequencing of global bacterial collections.
A new study shows that aBacillus subtilisbiofilm community uses metabolic co-dependency to produce growth oscillations that resolve a siege-like metabolic conflict.
This study describes a novel antimalarial drug that targetsPlasmodium falciparumtranslation elongation factor 2 and therefore acts against all stages of the parasite life cycle.
