VIRify: An integrated detection, annotation and taxonomic classification pipeline using virus-specific protein profile hidden Markov models.

The study of viral communities has revealed the enormous diversity and impact these biological entities have on various ecosystems. These observations have sparked widespread interest in developing computational strategies that support the comprehensive characterisation of viral communities based on sequencing data. Here we introduce VIRify, a new computational pipeline designed to provide a user-friendly and accurate functional and taxonomic characterisation of viral communities.

Top-down and bottom-up control of phytoplankton communities by zebra mussels Dreissena polymorpha (Pallas, 1771).

Zebra mussels (ZM), Dreissena polymorpha (Pallas, 1771), are one of the most aggressive invasive species. ZM have a strong bidirectional impact on phytoplankton because of their high nutrient excretion rates and high grazing pressure. Furthermore, the interactions between excretion and selective grazing are related to the trophic status of a waterbody and could cause unpredictable changes in phytoplankton.

MGnify Genomes: A Resource for Biome-specific Microbial Genome Catalogues.

An increasingly common output arising from the analysis of shotgun metagenomic datasets is the generation of metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs), with tens of thousands of MAGs now described in the literature. However, the discovery and comparison of these MAG collections is hampered by the lack of uniformity in their generation, annotation and storage. To address this, we have developed MGnify Genomes, a growing collection of biome-specific non-redundant microbial genome catalogues generated using MAGs and publicly available isolate genomes.

Aquacobalamin Accelerates Orange II Destruction by Peroxymonosulfate via the Transient Formation of Secocorrinoid: A Mechanistic Study.

Besides its use in medicine, vitamin B (cobalamin) and its derivatives have found in numerous applications as catalysts. However, studies related to the activation of oxidants via cobalamin are scant. In this work, we showed how the addition of aquacobalamin (HOCbl) accelerates the destruction of azo-dye Orange II by peroxymonosulfate (HSO) in aqueous solutions.

A unified catalog of 204,938 reference genomes from the human gut microbiome.

Comprehensive, high-quality reference genomes are required for functional characterization and taxonomic assignment of the human gut microbiota. We present the Unified Human Gastrointestinal Genome (UHGG) collection, comprising 204,938 nonredundant genomes from 4,644 gut prokaryotes. These genomes encode >170 million protein sequences, which we collated in the Unified Human Gastrointestinal Protein (UHGP) catalog.

svist4get: a simple visualization tool for genomic tracks from sequencing experiments.

Background: High-throughput sequencing often provides a foundation for experimental analyses in the life sciences. For many such methods, an intermediate layer of bioinformatics data analysis is the genomic signal track constructed by short read mapping to a particular genome assembly. There are many software tools to visualize genomic tracks in a web browser or with a stand-alone graphical user interface.
