Prototype Foamy Virus Integrase Displays Unique Biochemical Activities among Retroviral Integrases.

Biomolecules

Rabe AJ, Tan YY, Larue RC, Yoder KE.
PMID: 34944553
Biomolecules. 2021 Dec 20;11(12). doi: 10.3390/biom11121910.

Integrases of different retroviruses assemble as functional complexes with varying multimers of the protein. Retroviral integrases require a divalent metal cation to perform one-step transesterification catalysis. Tetrameric prototype foamy virus (PFV) intasomes assembled from purified integrase and viral DNA...

Virus and Potential Host Microbes from Viral-Enriched Metagenomic Characterization in the High-Altitude Wetland, Salar de Huasco, Chile.

Microorganisms

Eissler Y, Dorador C, Kieft B, Molina V, Hengst M.
PMID: 32698305
Microorganisms. 2020 Jul 20;8(7). doi: 10.3390/microorganisms8071077.

Salar de Huasco is a wetland in the Andes mountains, located 3800 m above sea level at the Chilean Altiplano. Here we present a study aimed at characterizing the viral fraction and the microbial communities through metagenomic analysis. Two...

Relative Comparison of Catalytic Characteristics of Human Foamy Virus and HIV-1 Integrases.

Acta naturae

Knyazhanskaya ES, Smolov MA, Kondrashina OV, Gottikh MB.
PMID: 22649606
Acta Naturae. 2009 Jul;1(2):78-80.

Due to their ability to integrate into the host cell's genome, retroviruses represent an optimal basis for the creation of gene therapy vectors. The integration reaction is carried out by a viral enzyme integrase: thus, a detailed research of...

Ginger DNA transposons in eukaryotes and their evolutionary relationships with long terminal repeat retrotransposons.

Mobile DNA

Bao W, Kapitonov VV, Jurka J.
PMID: 20226081
Mob DNA. 2010 Jan 25;1(1):3. doi: 10.1186/1759-8753-1-3.

BACKGROUND: In eukaryotes, long terminal repeat (LTR) retrotransposons such as Copia, BEL and Gypsy integrate their DNA copies into the host genome using a particular type of DDE transposase called integrase (INT). The Gypsy INT-like transposase is also conserved...

Filamentous phages of Ralstonia solanacearum: double-edged swords for pathogenic bacteria.

Frontiers in microbiology

Front Microbiol. 2013 Nov 04;4:325. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2013.00325. eCollection 2013.

Some phages from genus Inovirus use host or bacteriophage-encoded site-specific integrases or recombinases establish a prophage state. During integration or excision, a superinfective form can be produced. The three states (free, prophage, and superinfective) of such phages exert different...

Reconstructing ecosystem functions of the active microbial community of the Baltic Sea oxygen depleted sediments.

PeerJ

Thureborn P, Franzetti A, Lundin D, Sjöling S.
PMID: 26823996
PeerJ. 2016 Jan 19;4:e1593. doi: 10.7717/peerj.1593. eCollection 2016.

Baltic Sea deep water and sediments hold one of the largest anthropogenically induced hypoxic areas in the world. High nutrient input and low water exchange result in eutrophication and oxygen depletion below the halocline. As a consequence at Landsort...

Contribution of plasmidome, metal resistome and integrases to the persistence of the antibiotic resistome in aquatic environments.

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)

Di Cesare A, Sabatino R, Yang Y, Brambilla D, Li P, Fontaneto D, Eckert EM, Corno G.
PMID: 34974089
Environ Pollut. 2021 Dec 30;297:118774. doi: 10.1016/j.envpol.2021.118774. Epub 2021 Dec 30.

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are among the main hotspots of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the environment. Previously, we demonstrated that, by increasing anthropogenic pollution, the antibiotic resistome persisted in the microbial community of rivers and lakes, independently by...

Metagenomic and Resistome Analysis of a Full-Scale Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant in Singapore Containing Membrane Bioreactors.

Front Microbiol. 2019 Feb 18;10:172. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2019.00172. eCollection 2019.

Reclaimed water provides a water supply alternative to address problems of scarcity in urbanized cities with high living densities and limited natural water resources. In this study, wastewater metagenomes from 6 stages of a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) integrating...
