In vivo de-amplification of a multi-resistance pseudo-compound transposon in Escherichia coli

Ralfh Pulmones, Sabrina John Moyo, Berhe Etsay Tesfay…·Adam Paul Roberts

This study tracks the in vivo evolution of an antibiotic-resistant E. coli strain in an infant gut, showing a reduction in IS26-mediated resistance gene arrays without fitness or susceptibility changes.

Intraspecific venom variation in the medically important puff adder (Bitis arietans): comparative venom gland transcriptomics, in vitro venom activity and immunological recognition by antivenom

Charlotte A. Dawson, Keirah E. Bartlett, Mark C. Wilkinson…·Nicholas R. Casewell

This study compares venom variation in Bitis arietans across three regions using transcriptomics, chromatography, and functional assays, finding substantial toxin variation but no major impact on antivenom efficacy.
