Project description:To assess the chromatin structure of GMP-MoPs, we performed assay for transposase-accessible chromatin sequencing (ATAC-seq) analysis of MDP, cMoP, GMP, proNeu1, proNeu2, and GMP-MoP of mouse BM. The PCA of ATAC-seq positioned GMP-MoPs between proNeu1 and cMoPs.
Project description:Bombali virus (genus Ebolavirus) was identified in organs and excreta of an Angolan free-tailed bat (Mops condylurus) in Kenya. Complete genome analysis revealed 98% nucleotide sequence similarity to the prototype virus from Sierra Leone. No Ebola virus-specific RNA or antibodies were detected from febrile humans in the area who reported contact with bats.
Project description:In 2018, a previously unknown Ebola virus, Bombali virus, was discovered in Sierra Leone. We describe detection of Bombali virus in Guinea. We found viral RNA in internal organs of 3 Angolan free-tailed bats (Mops condylurus) trapped in the city of N'Zerekore and in a nearby village.
