  • Whole-Genome Sequencing of Human Pegivirus Variant from an Egyptian Patient Co-Infected with Hepatitis C Virus: a Case Report Hany K
    Soliman et al. Virology Journal (2019) 16:132 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12985-019-1242-5 CASE REPORT Open Access Whole-genome sequencing of human Pegivirus variant from an Egyptian patient co-infected with hepatitis C virus: a case report Hany K. Soliman1, Mohamed Abouelhoda2, Mahmoud N. El Rouby1, Ola S. Ahmed1, G. Esmat3, Zeinab K. Hassan1, Mohammed M. Hafez1, Dina Ahmed Mehaney4, Manojkumar Selvaraju5, Rania Kamal Darwish4, Yehia A. Osman6 and Abdel-Rahman N. Zekri1* Abstract Background: Human pegivirus (HPgV) is structurally similar to hepatitis C virus (HCV) and was discovered 20 years ago. Its distribution, natural history and exact rule of this viral group in human hosts remain unclear. Our aim was to determine, by deep next-generation sequencing (NGS), the entire genome sequence of HPgV that was discovered in an Egyptian patient while analyzing HCV sequence from the same patient. We also inspected whether the co-infection of HCV and HPgV will affect the patient response to HCV viral treatment. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report for a newly isolated HPgV in an Egyptian patient who is co-infected with HCV. Case presentation: The deep Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technique was used to detect HCV sequence in hepatitis C patient’s plasma. The results revealed the presence of HPgV with HCV. This co-infection was confirmed using conventional PCR of the HPgV 5′ untranslated region. The patient was then subjected to direct-acting-antiviral treatment (DAA). At the end of the treatment, the patient showed a good response to the HCV treatment (i.e., no HCV-RNA was detected in the plasma), while the HPgV-RNA was still detected.

Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria 51(1): 107–112. https://doi.org/10.3897/aiep.51.63216 Abstract Holocentrinae and Myripristinae (Holocentridae) are among the most apparent species in the nocturnal reef fish community. However, there is no clear assent regarding their phylogenetic relations, which is reported in their complicated taxonomic history. In this study, Sargocentron spinosissimum (Temminck et Schlegel, 1843) and Sargocentron tiereoides (Bleeker, 1853) were reported from the Medi- terranean coast of Egypt (Damietta coast). This is the first record of these species which is greatly distributed across Indo-Pacific regions and eastern Africa showed the success of these species to migrate to the Mediterranean water with a good adaptation to the new habitats. In the presently reported study, 26 morphometric measurements were recorded and cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) bar- codes were recovered for a total of 20 specimens (8 from S. spinosissimum and 12 from S. tiereoides).

Often, there is a lack or shortfall of effective prophylaxis and diagnostic capabilities. Research towards their development, together with improved surveillance activities are high priority activities to prepare and respond to outbreak threats. Yet handling these viruses commonly requires high containment levels. This can be circumvented by the use of replication defective pseudotyped viruses (PVs), incorporating the viral envelope protein of interest which constitutes the primary surface antigen. This permits the serological detection of neutralising antibodies without the need to handle live virus, as well as other viral entry studies.

  • Characterization of Glycoside Hydrolase Family 11 Xylanase from Streptomyces Sp. Strain J103

In the present study, we focused on xynS1, the glycoside hydrolase (GH) 11 xylanase gene derived from the Streptomyces sp. strain J103, which can mediate XynS1 protein synthesis and lignocellulosic material hydrolysis. Results: xynS1 has an open reading frame with 693 base pairs that encodes a protein with 230 amino acids. The predicted molecular weight and isoelectric point of the protein were 24.47 kDa and 7.92, respectively. The gene was cloned into the pET‑11a expression vector and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). Recombinant XynS1 (rXynS1) was purifed via His‑tag afnity column chromatography. rXynS1 exhibited optimal activity at a pH of 5.0 and tem‑ perature of 55 °C. Thermal stability was in the temperature range of 50–55 °C. The estimated K m and Vmax values were 2 51.4 mg/mL and 898.2 U/mg, respectively. One millimolar of Mn + and Na+ ions stimulated the activity of rXynS1 2 2 by up to 209% and 122.4%, respectively, and 1 mM Co + and Ni + acted as inhibitors of the enzyme.
