Metagenomics Reveals a Novel Virophage Population in a Tibetan Mountain Lake
Virophages are parasites of giant viruses that infect eukaryotic organisms and may affect the ecology of inland water ecosystems. Despite the potential ecological impact, limited information is available on the distribution, diversity, and hosts of virophages in ecosystems. Metagenomics revealed that virophages were widely distributed in inland waters with various environmental characteristics ...
متن کاملWhole Exome Sequencing Reveals a XPNPEP3 Novel Mutation Causing Nephronophthisis in a Pediatric Patient
Background: Nephronophthisis (NPHP) is a progressive tubulointestinal kidney condition that demonstrates an AR inheritance pattern. Up to now, more than 20 various genes have been detected for NPHP, with NPHP1 as the first one detected. X-prolyl aminopeptidase 3 (XPNPEP3) mutation is related to NPHP-like 1 nephropathy and late onset NPHP. Methods: The proband (index patient) had polyuria, polyd...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of a Novel SAR11 Clade Species Abundant in a Tibetan Lake
SAR11 clade bacteria are abundant and play a key role in the nutrient cycles of marine and, presumably, inland aquatic environments. We report here the draft genome sequence of a novel species in the SAR11 cluster, reconstructed from a metagenomic data set obtained from a Tibetan lake.
متن کاملMethylotrophy in a lake: from metagenomics to single-organism physiology.
This review provides a brief summary of ongoing studies in Lake Washington (Seattle, WA) directed at an understanding of the content and activities of microbial communities involved in methylotrophy. One of the findings from culture-independent approaches, including functional metagenomics, is the prominent presence of Methylotenera species in the site and their inferred activity in C(1) metabo...
متن کاملShotgun metagenomics reveals a wide array of antibiotic resistance genes and mobile elements in a polluted lake in India
There is increasing evidence for an environmental origin of many antibiotic resistance genes. Consequently, it is important to identify environments of particular risk for selecting and maintaining such resistance factors. In this study, we described the diversity of antibiotic resistance genes in an Indian lake subjected to industrial pollution with fluoroquinolone antibiotics. We also assesse...
