iPHoP: An integrated machine learning framework to maximize host prediction for metagenome-derived viruses of archaea and bacteria

Simon E. Roux et al.

Summary: The extraordinary diversity of viruses infecting bacteria and archaea can be studied through metagenomics. However, metagenome-derived viral sequences lack key information about host association. We introduce iPHoP, a framework that integrates multiple methods to predict host taxonomy for a range of uncultivated viruses, while maintaining a low false discovery rate. Using a large dataset from the IMG/VR database, iPHoP shows promise in providing extensive host prediction for uncultivated viruses.

Long-Read Sequencing Reveals Extensive DNA Methylations in Human Gut Phagenome Contributed by Prevalently Phage-Encoded Methyltransferases

Chuqing Sun et al.

Summary: In this study, DNA methylation patterns in 8848 high-quality phages from 104 fecal samples were analyzed using single-molecule real-time sequencing. The results show that 97.60% of gut phages exhibit methylation, and certain factors correlate with methylation densities. Phages with higher methylation densities have potential viability advantages. More than one-third of the phages possess their own DNA methyltransferases (MTases), and increased MTase copies are associated with higher genome methylation densities and specific methylation motifs. These findings indicate the widespread utilization of DNA methylation by gut DNA phages as an evasion mechanism against host defense systems.

Dynamic impact of virome on colitis and colorectal cancer: Immunity, inflammation, prevention and treatment

Zhihan Wang et al.

Summary: The gut microbiome, which consists of various microorganism genomes, plays a critical role in intestinal immunity and diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal cancer. Understanding the relationship between the microbiota and inflammation can provide insights into the etiology, progression, patient management, and development of prevention and treatment. This review focuses on the impact of enteric viruses, including commensal viruses, pathogenic viruses, and bacteriophages, on colitis and colorectal cancer, and discusses their potential for novel preventative approaches and therapeutic applications.

An overview on Vibrio temperate phages: Integration mechanisms, pathogenicity, and lysogeny regulation

Zaatout Nawel et al.

Summary: Vibrio species are widely distributed in marine habitats, and their virulence is associated with the acquisition of mobile genetic elements such as phages. These phages can integrate their genomes into the host genome as prophages, transferring virulence genes to the host cell and increasing population-level diversity. Prophages can also switch to a lytic cycle in response to environmental factors or host-quorum sensing.

DNA methylation: a historical perspective

Alexandra L. Mattei et al.

Summary: The discovery of 5-methylcytosine in bacteria in 1925 led to a gradual understanding of the biological importance of DNA methylation. While key factors that establish, maintain, and remove DNA methylation are now known, the precise role and interpretation of DNA methylation patterns are still under investigation. The availability of base-resolution methylation maps has greatly enhanced our knowledge in this field.

Liuyang Zhao et al.

Summary: Through ultra-deep metagenomic sequencing, we discovered 1058 novel human gut viruses, including some viral genomes longer than the largest bacteriophage found in humans. Our study also demonstrated that a biomarker panel of 14 novel viruses can differentiate patients with colorectal cancer from controls in a training cohort.

Extensive gut virome variation and its associations with host and environmental factors in a population-level cohort

Suguru Nishijima et al.

Summary: This study investigates the indigenous bacteriophage communities in the human gut and their relationship with the bacterial communities and anti-viral defense mechanisms. The distribution of host bacteria is found to be a key factor in determining the distribution of phages in the gut, and virome diversity is highly correlated with anti-viral defense mechanisms of the bacteriome. Various factors, including age, sex, lifestyle, diet, disease, and medication, significantly affect the virome structure.

Conserved DNA Methyltransferases: A Window into Fundamental Mechanisms of Epigenetic Regulation in Bacteria

Pedro H. Oliveira et al.

Summary: Bacterial DNA methylation plays crucial roles in affecting clinically relevant phenotypes beyond the restriction-modification systems. Highly conserved DNA methyltransferases (MTases) present a unique opportunity for bacterial epigenomic studies, including functional characterization and potential development of novel epigenetic inhibitors for biomedical applications. Further research in this area could lead to a more comprehensive understanding of the impact of DNA methylation on bacterial virulence and host-pathogen interactions.
