Rooibos (Aspalathus linearis), widely known as a herbal tea, is endemic to the Cape Floristic Region of South Africa (SA). It produces a wide range of phenolic compounds that have been associated with diverse health-promoting ...
Capacity building for whole genome sequencing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and bioinformatics in high TB burden countries
(Oxford University Press, 2020)
Background
Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) is increasingly used for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) research. Countries with the highest tuberculosis (TB) burden face important challenges to integrate WGS into surveillance ...
Ten simple rules for developing bioinformatics capacity at an academic institution
(Public Library of Science, 2021)
Bioinformatics is an applied interdisciplinary field whose primary purpose is to develop and
deploy computational techniques to store, organize, and aid in the analysis and interpretation
of large-scale data obtained ...
Exploring new genetic variants within col5a1 intron 4‐exon 5 region and tgf‐β family with risk of anterior cruciate ligament ruptures
(Wiley, 2020)
Variants within genes encoding structural and regulatory elements of ligaments have
been associated with musculoskeletal soft tissue injury risk. The role of intron 4‐exon
