This study examines DNA methylation and transcriptional changes in S. aureus under stress, finding rare but non-random methylation shifts linked to stress response and persistence.

NAP is an open-source pipeline for cross-domain microbiome profiling using Nanopore amplicon data, achieving strong genus-level performance and competitive species-level results.

This study demonstrates that BH4 deficiency exacerbates PD-related stressors and that BH4 augmentation protects dopaminergic neurons in multiple models.

This paper sequences 66 New Zealand Bordetella pertussis isolates to study genomic trends and finds that genetic changes align with global patterns but include unique circulating strains.
