Whole-Genome Sequencing and De Novo Assembly of 67 Staphylococcus pseudintermedius Strains Isolated from the Skin of Healthy Dogs
(American Society for Microbiology, 2022-03-02)
We have de novo assembled 67 Staphylococcus pseudintermedius genomes, with median values of 2.6 Mbp size and 99.43% completeness, 2,386 coding sequences, 19 complete rRNAs, 59 tRNAs, and 4 noncoding ...
Describing variability in pig genes involved in coronavirus infections for a One Health perspective in conservation of animal genetic resources
(Nature Research, 2021-02-09)
Coronaviruses silently circulate in human and animal populations, causing mild to severe diseases. Therefore, livestock are important components of a “One Health” perspective aimed to control these viral ...
Disentangling transport movement patterns of trucks either transporting pigs or while empty within a swine production system before and during the COVID-19 epidemic
(Frontiers Media, 2023-07-14)
Transport of pigs between sites occurs frequently as part of genetic improvement and age segregation. However, a lack of transport biosecurity could have catastrophic implications if not managed properly ...
Disease-specific changes in reelin protein and mRNA in neurodegenerative diseases
(MDPI, 2020-05-19)
Reelin is an extracellular glycoprotein that modulates neuronal function and synaptic plasticity in the adult brain. Decreased levels of Reelin activity have been postulated as a key factor during ...
Protection against reinfection with D614- or G614-SARS-CoV-2 isolates in golden Syrian hamster
(Taylor & Francis Open Access, 2021-04-29)
Reinfections with SARS-CoV-2 have already been documented in humans, although its real incidence is currently unknown. Besides having a great impact on public health, this phenomenon raises the question ...
Revisiting Porcine Circovirus Disease Diagnostic Criteria in the Current Porcine Circovirus 2 Epidemiological Context
(MDPI, 2022-03-02)
Current knowledge on porcine circovirus diseases (PCVD) caused by Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) includes the subclinical infection (PCV-2-SI), systemic (PCV-2-SD) and reproductive (PCV-2-RD) diseases, ...
Heterogeneity of Moraxella isolates found in the nasal cavities of piglets
(BMC, 2020-01-30)
Background
Previous studies have shown that the genus Moraxella is commonly present in the nasal microbiota of swine.
Results
In this study, 51 isolates of Moraxella were obtained from nasal swabs ...
Detection of West Nile virus lineage 2 in North‐Eastern Spain (Catalonia)
(Wiley, 2018-12-01)
In September 2017, West Nile virus (WNV) lineage 2 was detected in Catalonia (Northern Spain) in northern goshawks by passive surveillance. The phylogenetic analyses showed that it was related to the ...
Selecting Subpopulations of High-Quality Protein Conformers among Conformational Mixtures of Recombinant Bovine MMP-9 Solubilized from Inclusion Bodies
(MDPI, 2021-03-16)
A detailed workflow to analyze the physicochemical characteristics of mammalian matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-9) protein species obtained from protein aggregates (inclusion bodies—IBs) was followed. ...
Differential expression of mRNA isoforms in the skeletal muscle of pigs with distinct growth and fatness profiles
(BMC, 2018-02-14)
Background: The identification of genes differentially expressed in the skeletal muscle of pigs displaying distinct
growth and fatness profiles might contribute to identify the genetic factors that ...
