The paper reports nanopore sequencing of a K. pneumoniae isolate from Pakistan, identifying antibiotic resistance genes and contributing to the pan-genome of antibiotic-resistant strains.

The paper uses nanopore sequencing to analyze the genome of a human-associated MRSA strain, identifying antibiotic resistance genes, plasmids, and prophages, and compares it to Pakistani MRSA isolates.

The paper identifies potential drug targets for Mycobacterium chelonae using subtractive genomics and performs virtual screening of phytochemicals to find compounds that bind to GlmU, a druggable protein.

This study identifies quassinoid compounds that bind to cell division proteins in Neigleria fowleri, suggesting they could inhibit growth and proliferation of the pathogen.
