Published: January 2024

We present the whole-genome sequence of K1041, a bacterium that was originally identified as a genetically tractable thermophile. The genome consists of a circular chromosome that contains 3,848 genes. The sequence has a total size of 3,755,826 bp with a GC content of 49.18%.

Oligogenic risk score for Gilles de la Tourette syndrome reveals a genetic continuum of tic disorders.

J Appl Genet

Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS) and other tic disorders (TDs) have a substantial genetic component with their heritability estimated at between 60 and 80%. Here we propose an oligogenic risk score of TDs using whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data from a group of Polish GTS patients, their families, and control samples (n = 278). In this study, we first reviewed the literature to obtain a preliminary list of 84 GTS/TD candidate genes.

The emergence of carbapenem-resistant (CRKP) poses a significant public health threat, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) with limited surveillance and treatment options. This study examines the genetic diversity, resistance patterns, and transmission dynamics of 66 CRKP isolates recovered over 5 years (2015-2019) after the first case of CRKP was identified at a tertiary care hospital in Lima, Peru. Our findings reveal a shift from to as the dominant carbapenemase gene after 2017.
