Metagenomics is a powerful tool to study marine microbial communities. However, obtaining high-quality environmental DNA suitable for downstream sequencing applications is a challenging task. The quality and quantity of isolated DNA heavily depend on the choice of purification procedure and the type of sample.

- The Kara Sea receives about one-third of the Arctic Ocean’s freshwater, primarily from the Ob and Yenisei rivers, forming a significant freshwater plume in summer.
- Measurements taken before and during the ice-covered season show that late autumn convection reduces friction on the plume, allowing it to develop a strong current beneath the ice.
- This current transports freshwater eastward into the Laptev Sea over the winter months, enhancing our understanding of freshwater dynamics in the Arctic, particularly during the challenging ice-covered periods.
Nowadays, the study of metallopolymers is one of the fastest growing areas of polymer science. Metallopolymers have great potential for application in multiple technological and various biomedical processes. The macromolecules with the possibility of varying the number and type of metal ions along the entire length of the polymer chain are of particular interest.

Therefore, the development of a universal vector system whose surface can specifically bind molecules to provide efficient targeting is of particular interest. In this study, we propose a new approach in creating targeted vectors based on the genome of human adenovirus serotype 5 carrying the modified gene of the capsid protein pIX (Ad5-EGFP-pIX-ER): recombinant pseudoadenoviral nanoparticles (RPANs).

As a result of the fiber modification, the adenovirus can efficiently deliver the genetic information to bone marrow leukocytes and the tumor blood cells KG-1A (human myeloblastic leukemia cells) and U937 (human histiocytic lymphoma cells), which are normally resistant to Ad5 infection. The flow cytometry data reveal that the modified Ad5/35F penetrates into a population of monocytes, granulocytes, and blast cells of human bone marrow.
