Article Abstract
Mammalian cells are widely used to express genes for basic biology studies and biopharmaceuticals. Current methods for generation of engineered cell lines introduce high genomic and phenotypic diversity, which hamper studies of gene functions and discovery of novel cellular mechanisms. Here, we minimized clonal variation by integrating a landing pad for recombinase-mediated cassette exchange site-specifically into the genome of CHO cells using CRISPR and generated subclones expressing four different recombinant proteins. The subclones showed low clonal variation with high consistency in growth, transgene transcript levels and global transcriptional response to recombinant protein expression, enabling improved studies of the impact of transgenes on the host transcriptome. Little variation over time in subclone phenotypes and transcriptomes was observed when controlling environmental culture conditions. The platform enables robust comparative studies of genome engineered CHO cell lines and can be applied to other mammalian cells for diverse biological, biomedical and biotechnological applications.

Potato bolters are caused by excision of a transposon from the StCDF1.3 allele, resulting in a somatic mutant with late maturity. Somatic mutations during vegetative propagation can lead to novel genotypes, known as sports.

Clinical microbiology involves the detection and differentiation of primarily bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi in patients with infections. Billions of people may be colonised by one or more species of common luminal intestinal parasitic protists (CLIPPs) that are often detected in clinical microbiology laboratories; still, our knowledge on these organisms' impact on global health is very limited. The genera Blastocystis, Dientamoeba, Entamoeba, Endolimax and Iodamoeba comprise CLIPPs species, the life cycles of which, as opposed to single-celled pathogenic intestinal parasites (e.

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are essential components of the innate immune system, functioning as pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) to detect pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). In hematological malignancies, particularly myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), TLRs influence inflammation, disease progression, and therapeutic response. This review highlights the prognostic relevance of TLR expression, the role of the MyD88 signaling pathway in clonal evolution, and the dual nature of TLR-mediated immune responses, either promoting antitumor activity or contributing to leukemogenesis.

is a commensal bacterium that colonizes the gut of humans and animals and is a major opportunistic pathogen, known for causing multidrug-resistant healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). Its ability to thrive in diverse environments and disseminate antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) across ecological niches highlights the importance of understanding its ecological, evolutionary, and epidemiological dynamics. The CRISPR2 locus has been used as a valuable marker for assessing clonality and phylogenetic relationships in .

Introduction: are commonly found in intramammary infections associated with bovine subclinical mastitis in dairy cattle, yet their genomic diversity and antimicrobial resistance dynamics remain poorly characterized, particularly in African settings.
Methods: This study presents a comparative genomic analysis of 17 isolates from South Africa, including five newly sequenced bovine mastitis strains and twelve porcine-derived genomes retrieved from GenBank. analysis using multilocus sequence typing (MLST), virulence genes, antibiotic resistance genes and plasmids replicon types were used to characterise these isolates.
