Molecular analysis of Lancefield group C/G streptococci causing human infections in Sheffield, UK.

This study performs whole-genome sequencing of Lancefield group C/G streptococci isolates from Sheffield, UK, revealing high genomic diversity, antimicrobial resistance, and persistence within hosts.

How acceptable is rapid whole genome sequencing for infectious disease management in hospitals? Perspectives of those involved in managing nosocomial SARS-CoV-2

The paper explores the acceptability of rapid whole genome sequencing for managing nosocomial SARS-CoV-2 infections through interviews with healthcare professionals.

Altered Subgenomic RNA Expression in SARS-CoV-2 B.1.1.7 Infections

The paper shows that B.1.1.7 SARS-CoV-2 lineage has increased subgenomic RNA expression compared to other lineages, with a noncanonical sgRNA near ORF9b showing a 16-fold increase in median expression.
