A computational study of the interaction of the foot and mouth disease virus VP1 with monoclonal antibodies
(Elsevier, 2015-10)Foot and mouth disease is caused by a non-enveloped virus (FMDV), which disposes several antigenic sites at the surface of their capsid proteins. The most relevant and immunodominant antigenic site of FMDV (site A or AnSA) ... -
Assessing the hidden diversity underlying consensus sequences of SARS-CoV-2 using VICOS, a novel bioinformatic pipeline for identification of mixed viral populations
(Elsevier, 2023-02)Introduction: Coinfection with two SARS-CoV-2 viruses is still a very understudied phenomenon. Although next generation sequencing methods are very sensitive to detect heterogeneous viral populations in a sample, there is ... -
Draft genome sequence data of Cercospora kikuchii, a causal agent of Cercospora leaf blight and purple seed stain of soybeans
(Elsevier, 2019-10)Cercospora kikuchii (Tak. Matsumoto & Tomoy.) M.W. Gardner 1927 is an ascomycete fungal pathogen that causes Cercospora leaf blight and purple seed stain on soybean. Here, we report the first draft genome sequence and ... -
Improving clustering with metabolic pathway data
(BMC, 2014-04)Background: It is a common practice in bioinformatics to validate each group returned by a clustering algorithm through manual analysis, according to a-priori biological knowledge. This procedure helps finding functionally ... -
Structural and molecular dynamics investigations of ligand stabilization via secondary binding site interactions in Paenibacillus xylanivorans GH11 xylanase
(Elsevier, 2021-03)Glycoside hydrolases (GHs) are essential for plant biomass deconstruction. GH11 family consist of endo-β-1,4-xylanases which hydrolyze xylan, the second most abundant cell wall biopolymer after cellulose, into small ... -
The key to egress? Babesia bovis perforin-like protein 1 (PLP1) with hemolytic capacity is required for blood stage replication and is involved in the exit of the parasite from the host cell
(Elsevier, 2021-07)Bovine babesiosis is a tick-borne disease caused by apicomplexan parasites of the Babesia genus that represents a major constraint to livestock production worldwide. Currently available vaccines are based on live parasites ... -
ViralPlaque: a Fiji macro for automated assessment of viral plaque statistics
(PeerJ, 2019-09)laque assay has been used for a long time to determine infectious titers and characterize prokaryotic and eukaryotic viruses forming plaques. Indeed, plaque morphology and dimensions can provide information regarding the ...
