The paper identifies an introgressed galectin-like protein in Cryptosporidium parvum anthroponosum as a potential driver of its human tropism through interaction with the human insulin-degrading enzyme.

This paper introduces a method to recover Borrelia genomes from ticks using Whole Genome Amplification, significantly reducing the time and effort compared to traditional culturing methods.

The paper characterizes a persistent, azole-resistant C. parapsilosis strain responsible for a hospital outbreak, identifying genetic mutations linked to antifungal resistance.

The paper uses whole genome sequencing to identify three distinct populations of Cryptosporidium parvum, showing the emergence and spread of a European population to the USA.

The paper introduces a novel index, FOGS, to measure bacterial genome plasticity by incorporating time and gene transfer events, showing higher FOGS in high-risk clones.

The paper evaluates reducing AlphaFold-Multimer model sampling for faster protein-protein interaction predictions without compromising accuracy.
