Long-read sequencing revealed complex biallelic pentanucleotide repeat expansions in RFC1-related Parkinson’s disease by Peng Liu, Fan Zhang, Xinhui Chen, Xiaosheng Zheng, Miao Chen, Zhiru Lin, Shuqi Chen, Lebo Wang, Xinchen Wang, Nan Jin, Chenxin Ying, Fei Xie, Bo Wang, Sheng Wu, Zhidong Cen, Wei Luo

“…We report two early-onset patients with PD carrying complex biallelic pentanucleotide repeat expansions in RFC1. Long-read sequencing revealed a novel repeat configuration of (AGGGG)exp(AAGGG)14 and a possible somatic variant of (AAGGG)exp(AATGG)exp(AAGGG)exp in the (AAGGG)exp alleles in two RFC1-related PD patients. …”

Persistent functional and taxonomic groups dominate an 8,000-year sedimentary sequence from Lake Cadagno, Switzerland by Paula Rodriguez, Jasmine S. Berg, Longhui Deng, Longhui Deng, Hendrik Vogel, Michal Okoniewski, Mark A. Lever, Mark A. Lever, Cara Magnabosco

“…Here, we reconstruct the microbial functional and taxonomic composition of an 8,000-year Holocene sedimentary succession from meromictic Lake Cadagno (Switzerland) using shotgun metagenomics and 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing. While younger sediments (<1,000 years) are dominated by typical anaerobic surface sedimentary bacterial taxa (Deltaproteobacteria, Acidobacteria, and Firmicutes), older layers with lower organic matter concentrations and reduced terminal electron acceptor availability are dominated by taxa previously identified as “persistent populations” within deep anoxic marine sediments (Candidatus Bathyarchaeia, Chloroflexi, and Atribacteria). …”
