T7 RNA Polymerase (RNAP) is a widely used enzyme with recent applications in the production of RNA vaccines. For over 50 years denaturing sequencing gels have been used as key analysis tools for probing the nucleotide addition mechanisms of T7 RNAP a...
Viral proteins that evade the host's innate immune response play a crucial role in pathogenesis, significantly impacting viral infections and potential therapeutic strategies. Identifying these proteins through traditional methods is challenging and ...
Viral oncoproteins play crucial roles in transforming normal cells into cancer cells, representing a significant factor in the etiology of various cancers. Traditionally, identifying these oncoproteins is both time-consuming and costly. With advancem...
The rapid spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in an unprecedented amount of sequence data of the SARS-CoV-2 genome-millions of sequences and counting. This amount of data, while being orders of magnitude beyond the capacity of traditional ap...
The characterization of therapeutic phage genomes plays a crucial role in the success rate of phage therapies. There are three checkpoints that need to be examined for the selection of phage candidates, namely, the presence of temperate markers, anti...
Characterization of protein complexes, i.e. sets of proteins assembling into a single larger physical entity, is important, as such assemblies play many essential roles in cells such as gene regulation. From networks of protein-protein interactions, ...
Persistent infection with high-risk types Human Papillomavirus could cause diseases including cervical cancers and oropharyngeal cancers. Nonetheless, so far there is no effective pharmacotherapy for treating the infection from high-risk HPV types, a...

Life threatening diseases like adult T-cell leukemia, neurodegenerative diseases, and demyelinating diseases such as HTLV-1 based myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP), hypocalcaemia, and bone lesions are caused by a group of human retrov...
Cryo-EM maps are valuable sources of information for protein structure modeling. However, due to the loss of contrast at high frequencies, they generally need to be post-processed to improve their interpretability. Most popular approaches, based on g...
Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a fatal disease caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Although 23 different drugs have been available, the treatment of AIDS remains challenging because the virus mutates very quickly which can le...
