Article Abstract

A large outbreak of extensively drug-resistant (XDR) serotype Typhi infections is ongoing in Pakistan, predominantly in Sindh Province. Here, we report the sequencing and characterization of five XDR Typhi isolates from the Punjab province of Pakistan that are closely related to the outbreak strain and carry the same IncY plasmid.

Glycocins are a growing family of ribosomally synthesized and posttranslationally modified peptides (RiPPs) that are O- and/or S-glycosylated. Using a sequence similarity network of putative glycosyltransferases, the thg biosynthetic gene cluster was identified in the genome of Thermoanaerobacterium thermosaccharolyticum. Heterologous expression in Escherichia coli showed that the glycosyltransferase (ThgS) encoded in the biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) adds N-acetyl-glucosamine (GlcNAc) to Ser and Cys residues of ThgA.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a prominent opportunistic pathogen, especially in burn wound infections, and is often associated with high morbidity and mortality due to its multidrug resistance (MDR) characteristics.This study aimed to evaluate the multidrug resistance profile and perform a molecular phylogenetic analysis of P. aeruginosa isolates recovered from human burn infection sample .

Metabolic associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is a severe form of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) characterized by hepatocellular injury, inflammation, and fibrosis. Despite advances in understanding its pathophysiology, the molecular mechanisms driving MASH progression remain unclear. This study investigates the role of long non-coding RNA Linc01271 in MASLD/MASH pathogenesis, ant its involvement in the miR-149-3p/RAB35 axis and PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.

Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) causes mild to severe disease in livestock and humans. It was first identified in 1931 during an epizootic in Kenya and has spread across Africa and into the Middle East. Hematopoietic cells are one of the major targets of RVFV ; however, their contribution to RVFV pathogenesis remains poorly understood.

Genomic characterization of arboviruses discovered between the 1950s and 1980s.

J Virol

September 2025

Department of Microbiology, Immunology and Molecular Genetics, College of Medicine, University of Kentucky, Lexington, Kentucky, USA.

Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) pose a major threat to global public health, impacting both human and animal health. Genomic characterization is important for arboviruses because it allows for an understanding of their evolution and improves timely outbreak and epidemic response. In this study, we used high-throughput sequencing and computational analyses to characterize the genomes and evolution of 46 previously unsequenced or partially sequenced arbovirus isolates collected across 23 countries between 1954 and 1984.
