2009-05-14ZeitschriftenartikelDetection of hepatitis E virus in wild boars of rural and urban regions in Germany and whole genome characterization of an endemic strain Background: Hepatitis E is an increasingly diagnosed human disease in Central Europe. Besides domestic pigs, in which hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection is highly prevalent, wild boars have been identified as a possible ...

2007-09-06ZeitschriftenartikelDiscovery of herpesviruses in multi-infected primates using locked nucleic acids (LNA) and a bigenic PCR approach Targeting the highly conserved herpes DNA polymerase (DPOL) gene with PCR using panherpes degenerate primers is a powerful tool to universally detect unknown herpesviruses. However, vertebrate hosts are often infected with ...

2009-07-01ZeitschriftenartikelEmergence of a community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus with unique resistance profile in Southwest of Nigeria Pheno-, genotypic and toxin gene analysis has not been done yet all in one for Nigerian Staphylococcus aureus population. This study provides a comprehensive overview on the molecular epidemiology and genetic diversity of ...
-
2008-06-01ZeitschriftenartikelGlobal distribution of novel rhinovirus genotype. Global surveillance for a novel rhinovirus genotype indicated its association with community outbreaks and pediatric respiratory disease in Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America. Molecular dating indicates ...

2009-12-21ZeitschriftenartikelIdentification of a novel betaherpesvirus in Mus musculus Rodent betaherpesviruses vary considerably in genomic content, and these variations can result in a distinct pathogenicity. Therefore, the identification of unknown betaherpesviruses in house mice (Mus musculus), the ...

2008-05-28ZeitschriftenartikelInterspecies transmission of simian foamy virus in a natural predator-prey system Simian foamy viruses (SFV) are ancient retroviruses of primates and have coevolved with their host species for as many as 30 million years. Although humans are not naturally infected with foamy virus, infection is occasionally ...
-
2009-11-18ZeitschriftenartikelLymphocryptovirus phylogeny and the origins of Epstein-Barr virus. Specimens from wild and captive primates were collected, and searched for new members of the genus Lymphocryptovirus (subfamily Gammaherpesvirinae) utilising PCR for the DNA polymerase gene. Twenty-one new viruses were ...
-
2012-04-06ZeitschriftenartikelOvercoming species boundaries in peptide identification with BICEPS Currently, the reliable identification of peptides and proteins is only feasible when thoroughly annotated sequence databases are available. While sequencing capacities continue to grow, many organisms remain without ...

2010-09-14ZeitschriftenartikelPhylogenetic history demonstrates two different lineages of dengue type 1 virus in Colombia Background: Dengue Fever is one of the most important viral re-emergent diseases affecting about 50 million people around the world especially in tropical and sub-tropical countries. In Colombia, the virus was first ...

2009-09-01ZeitschriftenartikelPhylogeny and Disease Association of Shiga toxin-Producing Escherichia coli O91 The diversity and relatedness of 100 Shiga toxin–producing Escherichia coli O91 isolates from different patients were examined by multilocus sequence typing. We identified 10 specific sequence types (ST) and 4 distinct ...
-
2013-02-28ZeitschriftenartikelProtein function prediction using domain families Here we assessed the use of domain families for predicting the functions of whole proteins. These 'functional families' (FunFams) were derived using a protocol that combines sequence clustering with supervised cluster ...

2009-05-20ZeitschriftenartikelTracing the HIV-1 subtype B mobility in Europe: a phylogeographic approach Background: The prevalence and the origin of HIV-1 subtype B, the most prevalent circulating clade among the long-term residents in Europe, have been studied extensively. However the spatial diffusion of the epidemic ...

2013-12-12ZeitschriftenartikelTransmission and molecular characterisation of wild measles virus in Romania, 2008 to 2012 Molecular characterisation of measles virus is a powerful tool for tracing transmission. Genotyping may prove the absence of endemic circulation of measles virus, i.e. transmission for more than 12 months, which is one of ...

2010-06-01ZeitschriftenartikelXenotropic Murine Leukemia Virus–related Gammaretrovirus in Respiratory Tract Xenotropic murine leukemia virus–related gammaretrovirus (XMRV) has been recently associated with prostate cancer and chronic fatigue syndrome. To identify nucleic acid sequences, we examined respiratory secretions by using ...
