Chimeric Translation for Mitochondrial Peptides: Regular and Expanded Codons.

Frameshifting protein translation occasionally results from insertion of amino acids at isolated mono- or dinucleotide-expanded codons by tRNAs with expanded anticodons. Previous analyses of two different types of human mitochondrial MS proteomic data (Fisher and Waters technologies) detect peptides entirely corresponding to expanded codon translation. Here, these proteomic data are reanalyzed searching for peptides consisting of at least eight consecutive amino acids translated according to regular tricodons, and at least eight adjacent consecutive amino acids translated according to expanded codons.

Resveratrol-mediated glycemic regulation is blunted by curcumin and is associated to modulation of gut microbiota.

The polyphenols resveratrol (RSV) and curcumin (Cur) are phytoalexines and natural antibiotics with numerous pharmacological functions and metabolic impacts. Recent evidences show a broad control of gut microbiota by polyphenols which could influence glycemic regulation. The aim of this work is to estimate the respective effect of RSV and Cur alone or in association on the control of glycemia and on gut microbiota.

Prognostic Value of F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography in Infective Endocarditis.

Background: F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (F-FDG PET/CT) is commonly used for the diagnosis of infective endocarditis (IE), but its prognostic value remains unknown.

Objectives: This study sought to assess the prognostic value of F-FDG PET/CT in prosthetic valve endocarditis (PVE) and native valve endocarditis (NVE).

Methods: This study prospectively included 173 consecutive patients (109 PVE and 64 NVE) with definite left-sided IE who had an F-FDG PET/CT and were followed-up for 1 year.

In 2013, was reported as a bacterial species isolated from contaminated soil. In 2018, a clinical strain from the same species was isolated from the rectal swab of a Hajj pilgrim. Genome sequencing yielded 6,704,032 bp, with 41.

sp. nov., a new bacterium isolated from a fresh human stool specimen.

strain Marseille-P4266 (= CSURP4266) is a new species isolated from a fresh human stool specimen.

Passive Filtration, Rapid Scanning Electron Microscopy, and Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization-Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry for Culture and Identification from the Oral Cavity.

We present here a new passive-filtration-based culture device combined with rapid identification with a new electron microscope (Hitachi TM4000) for the detection and culture of species from the human oral cavity. Of the 44 oral samples cultivated, 15 (34%) were found to be positive for using electron microscopy and were also culture positive. All were subcultured on agar plates; based on genome sequencing and analyses, 10 were strains of and 5 were strains of The 29 samples that were negative for remained culture negative.

Disseminated Infection in Wild Grasscutters (), Côte d'Ivoire.

Buruli ulcer is an infectious disease provoking chronic, disabling skin ulcers in mammals and humans. Buruli ulcer is caused by , an environmental mycobacterium synthesizing a toxin called mycolactone responsible for the pathogenicity. The reservoirs and the modes of transmission of remain elusive, limiting the prophylaxis capabilities in rural areas in endemic countries.

Draft genome and description of Chryseobacterium phocaeense sp. nov.: a new bacterial species isolated from the sputum of a cystic fibrosis patient.

Strain 6021061333 was isolated from the sputum of 16-year-old girl with cystic fibrosis following a pulmonary exacerbation. This bacterial strain could not be identified by our systematic MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry screening on a MicroFlex. This led to the sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene, which shows 97.

Genome sequence and description of sp. nov., a new anaerobic bacterium isolated from the human gut.

sp. nov., strain Marseille-P2653 (= CSUR; P2653=DSM103120) is a new bacterial species belonging to the phylum in the family that was isolated from the human gut microbiota.

The Methodology Behind Network Thinking: Graphs to Analyze Microbial Complexity and Evolution.

In the post genomic era, large and complex molecular datasets from genome and metagenome sequencing projects expand the limits of what is possible for bioinformatic analyses. Network-based methods are increasingly used to complement phylogenetic analysis in studies in molecular evolution, including comparative genomics, classification, and ecological studies. Using network methods, the vertical and horizontal relationships between all genes or genomes, whether they are from cellular chromosomes or mobile genetic elements, can be explored in a single expandable graph.

Changes in malaria epidemiology in France and worldwide, 2000-2015.

In 2015, 212 million new cases of malaria were reported, causing 429,000 deaths. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimated a 41% decrease in the number of new cases worldwide between 2000 and 2015. The number of deaths from malaria fell by 62% worldwide and by 71% in Africa.

Seroepidemiological and molecular investigation of spotted fever group rickettsiae and Coxiella burnetii in Sao Tome Island: A One Health approach.

Spotted fever group rickettsiae (SFGR) and Coxiella burnetii are intracellular bacteria that cause potentially life-threatening tick-borne rickettsioses and Q fever respectively. Sao Tome and Principe (STP), small islands located in the Gulf of Guinea, recently experienced a dramatic reduction in the incidence of malaria owing to international collaborative efforts. However, unexplained febrile illnesses persist.

Role of the R349 Gene and Its Repeats in the MIMIVIRE Defense System.

MIMIVIRE is a defense system described in lineage A Mimivirus ( family) that mediates resistance against Zamilon virophage. It is composed of putative helicase and nuclease associated with a gene of unknown function called R349, which contains four 15 bp repeats homologous to the virophage sequence. In a previous study, the silencing of such genes restored virophage susceptibility.
