PCR-based detection of Plasmodium falciparum in saliva using mitochondrial cox3 and varATS primers

open access: yesTropical Medicine and Health, 2018
Background Sampling of saliva for diagnosing Plasmodium falciparum infections is a safe, non-invasive alternative to sampling of blood. However, the use of saliva presents a challenge because lower concentrations of parasite DNA are present in saliva ...

mockrobiota: a Public Resource for Microbiome Bioinformatics Benchmarking. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Mock communities are an important tool for validating, optimizing, and comparing bioinformatics methods for microbial community analysis. We present mockrobiota, a public resource for sharing, validating, and documenting mock community data resources ...

Identification of a new ribose methylation in the 18S rRNA of S. cerevisiae

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2015
Methylation of ribose sugars at the 2′-OH group is one of the major chemical modifications in rRNA, and is catalyzed by snoRNA directed C/D box snoRNPs.

Intracellular Diversity of the V4 and V9 Regions of the 18S rRNA in Marine Protists (Radiolarians) Assessed by High-Throughput Sequencing

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Metabarcoding is a powerful tool for exploring microbial diversity in the environment, but its accurate interpretation is impeded by diverse technical (e.g. PCR and sequencing errors) and biological biases (e.g. intra-individual polymorphism) that remain

A sensitive genetic-based detection capability for Didymosphenia geminata [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
It is now well recognized that the increase in global transportation over the last two decades has brought with it an increased potential for the introduction of unwanted microorganisms (aquatic or terrestrial) that may have drastic effects on human and ...

RNomics: a computational search for box C/D snoRNA genes in the D. melanogaster genome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Motivation: In eukaryotes, the family of non-coding RNA genes includes a number of genes encoding small nucleolar RNAs (mainly C/D and H/ACA snoRNAs), which act as guides in the maturation or post-transcriptional modifications of target RNA molecules ...
