Summary: Genomic sequences are widely used to infer the evolutionary history of a given group of individuals. Many methods have been developed for sequence clustering and tree building. In the early days of genome sequencing, these were often limited to hundreds of sequences but due to the surge of high throughput sequencing, it is now common to have millions of sampled sequences at hand. We introduce MNHN-Tree-Tools, a high performance set of algorithms that builds multi-scale, nested clusters of sequences found in a FASTA file. MNHN-Tree-Tools does not rely on multiple sequence alignment and can thus be used on large datasets to infer a sequence tree. Herein, we outline two applications: a human alpha-satellite repeats classification and a tree of life derivation from 16S/18S rDNA sequences.

National epidemiological investigations of microbial infections greatly benefit from the increased information gained by whole-genome sequencing (WGS) in combination with standardized approaches for data sharing and analysis. To evaluate the quality and accuracy of WGS data generated by different laboratories but analysed by joint pipelines to reach a national surveillance approach. A national methicillin-resistant (MRSA) collection of 20 strains was distributed to nine participating laboratories that performed in-house procedures for WGS.

-Iodosuccinimide-promoted cascade reactions of arylidene isoxazolones with amidines in -xylene were accomplished, affording 5-acylimidazoles in good to excellent yields. Interestingly, when the reactions were performed by employing acetonitrile as the solvent, 4-acylimidazoles were efficiently obtained. Mechanistic studies indicate that the formation of imidazolyl and acyl moieties may undergo a spiroannulation-ring opening aromatization-hydrolysis cascade reaction sequence.

Background: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common subtype of kidney cancer with a high metastatic rate and high mortality rate. The molecular mechanism of ccRCC development, however, needs further study. Aurora kinase B (AURKB) functions as an important oncogene in various tumors; therefore, in the present study, we aimed to explore the mechanism by which AURKB affects ccRCC development.
