A genomic signature and the identification of new sporulation genes

  • Autores: Abecasis AB, Alves R, Henriques AO, Pereira-Leal JB, Quintais L, Serrano M
  • Ano de Publicação: 2013
  • Journal: Journal of Bacteriology
  • Link: http://jb.asm.org/content/195/9/2101.full

Bacterial endospores are the most resistant cell type known to humans, as they are able to withstand extremes of temperature, pressure, chemical injury, and time. They are also of interest because the endospore is the infective particle in a variety of human and livestock diseases.

Increase in transmitted resistance to non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors among newly diagnosed HIV-1 infections in Europe

  • Autores: Abecasis AB, Albert J, Åsjö B, Balotta C, Beshkov D, Boucher CA, Camacho RJ, Clotet B, Coughlan S, Frentz D, Griskevicius A, Grossman Z, Hamouda O, Horban A, Jørgensen LB, Kolupajeva T, Korn K, Kostrikis LG, Kücherer C, Liitsola K, Linka M, Nielsen C, Otelea D, Paraskevis D, Paredes R, Poljak M, Puchhammer-Stöckl E, Schmit JC, Sönnerborg A, Staneková D, Stanojevic M, Struck D, Van de Vijver DA, Van Wijngaerden E, Vercauteren J, Wensing AMJ
  • Ano de Publicação: 2014
  • Journal: BMC Infectious Diseases

One out of ten newly diagnosed patients in Europe was infected with a virus carrying a drug resistant mutation. We analysed the patterns over time for transmitted drug resistance mutations (TDRM) using data from the European Spread program.

Novel HIV-1 recombinants spreading across multiple risk groups in the United Kingdom: the identification and phylogeography of Circulating Recombinant Form (CRF) 50_A1D

  • Autores: Abecasis AB, Ambrose JC, Delpech VC, Fearnhill E, Foster GM, Geretti AM, Hué S, Leigh Brown AJ
  • Ano de Publicação: 2014
  • Journal: PLoS One
  • Link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24454702

An increase in non-B HIV-1 infections among men who have sex with men (MSM) in the United Kingdom (UK) has created opportunities for novel recombinants to arise and become established. We used molecular mapping to characterize the importance of such recombinants to the UK HIV epidemic, in order to gain insights into transmission dynamics that can inform control strategies.
