Sarbecoviruses of British Horseshoe Bats; Sequence Variation and Epidemiology (2023)
Journal Article
Apaa, T., Withers, A. J., Staley, C. E., Blanchard, A. M., Bennett, M., Bremner-Harrison, S., …Tarlinton, R. E. (2023). Sarbecoviruses of British Horseshoe Bats; Sequence Variation and Epidemiology. Journal of General Virology, 104(6), Article 001859. https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.02.14.528476

Horseshoe bats are the natural hosts of the Sarbecovirus subgenus that includes SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV- 2. Despite the devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, there is still little known about the underlying epidemiology and virology of sarbecovi...

NANOG is required to establish the competence for germ-layer differentiation in the basal tetrapod axolotl (2023)
Journal Article
Simpson, L. A., Crowley, D., Forey, T., Acosta, H., Ferjentsik, Z., Chatfield, J., …Johnson, A. D. (2023). NANOG is required to establish the competence for germ-layer differentiation in the basal tetrapod axolotl. PLoS Biology, 21(6), Article e3002121. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pbio.3002121

Pluripotency defines the unlimited potential of individual cells of vertebrate embryos, from which all adult somatic cells and germ cells are derived. Understanding how the programming of pluripotency evolved has been obscured in part by a lack of da...

Dynamic, adaptive sampling during nanopore sequencing using Bayesian experimental design (2023)
Journal Article
Weilguny, L., De Maio, N., Munro, R., Manser, C., Birney, E., Loose, M., & Goldman, N. (2023). Dynamic, adaptive sampling during nanopore sequencing using Bayesian experimental design. Nature Biotechnology, 41, 1018–1025. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41587-022-01580-z

Nanopore sequencers can select which DNA molecules to sequence, rejecting a molecule after analysis of a small initial part. Currently, selection is based on predetermined regions of interest that remain constant throughout an experiment. Sequencing...
