Article Synopsis
  • The process of repairing UV-induced DNA damage involves changes in chromatin structure, which is not fully understood yet.
  • Researchers have identified specific genomic regions where global genome-nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER) starts, known as GG-NER complex binding sites (GCBSs).
  • They found that in response to DNA damage, the GG-NER complex disrupts nucleosomes at these sites, initiating the repair process and revealing a connection between these binding sites and chromatin organization.

White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV), the etiological agent of White Spot Disease (WSD) is a major impediment for shrimp aquaculture in the worldwide. A critical threshold level of WSSV load in infected shrimp is an important trait for disease manifestation and WSSV transmission in cultured shrimp and subsequently make outbreaks. The present study investigated 120 naturally infected cultured shrimp samples by SYBR Green based qPCR assay for WSD diagnosis and quantification of WSSV load.

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly infectious enzootic disease caused by FMD virus. The complete genome sequence of a circulatory FMD virus (FMDV) serotype O isolated from Natore, Bangladesh, is reported here. Genomic analysis revealed antigenic heterogeneity within the VP1 region, a fragment deletion, and insertions at the 5' untranslated region (UTR) and 3A region compared to the genome of the available vaccine strain.
