DNA holds immense potential as an emerging data storage medium. However, the recovery of information in DNA storage systems faces challenges posed by various errors, including IDS errors, strand breaks, and rearrangements, inevitably introduced during synthesis, amplification, sequencing, and storage processes. Sequence reconstruction, crucial for decoding, involves inferring the DNA reference from a cluster of erroneous copies.

We characterized a variable number tandem repeat within intron 6 (VNTR6-1, 38-bp repeat unit) and observed a strong association between VNTR6-1 alleles (Short: 24-27 repeats, Long: 40.

Viral contamination of bivalve molluscs, such as oysters, is a well-recognized food safety risk. The aim of this study was to assess virological hazards in market-ready oysters on the Dutch market. Non-targeted metagenome analysis was first performed on norovirus spiked-in samples showing linear and sensitive detection of norovirus GI.

High sugar intake has become a global health concern due to its association with various diseases. Mogroside V (MG-V), a zero-calorie sweetener with multiple medical properties, is emerging as a promising sugar substitute. However, its application is hindered by low natural abundance and the inefficiency of conventional plant extraction methods.

The continuing emergence of immune evasive SARS-CoV-2 variants and the previous SARS-CoV-1 outbreak collectively underscore the need for broadly protective sarbecovirus vaccines. Targeting the conserved S2 subunit of SARS-CoV-2 is a particularly promising approach to elicit broad protection. Here, we describe a nanoparticle vaccine displaying multiple copies of the SARS-CoV-1 S2 subunit.
