Transposons as Tools for Future Genome Engineering in Yeasts and Filamentous Fungi
Yeast, EarlyView.Applications of transposon‐based tools for genome engineering in fungi include transposon‐mediated mutagenesis and targeted genomic integration. ABSTRACT Transposons are fundamental genetic elements that have profoundly shaped the architecture of eukaryotic genomes.

Fast-Find: A novel computational approach to analyzing combinatorial motifs
BMC Bioinformatics, 2006 Background Many vital biological processes, including transcription and splicing, require a combination of short, degenerate sequence patterns, or motifs, adjacent to defined sequence features.

Yeast, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The knockout strain collection of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has served as a valuable resource for functional genomics and yeast‐based biotechnology studies. A comprehensive single‐gene knockout strain collection, covering nearly all non‐essential genes, together with complementary mutant collections for essential genes, including temperature ...

Insect Science, EarlyView.The mitogenome was transcribed into complete primary polycistrons on both strands. The heteropteran mitochondrial transcription termination factor (HmTTF) functions as a bidirectional attenuator rather than a terminator, and co‐evolution of HmTTF and the binding sites was observed.

The bidirectional interplay between RNA processing and mechanotransduction
Cell ReportsSummary: Through mechanotransduction, cells sense and respond to mechanical stimuli from their environment. A mechanical stimulus is first detected by a mechanosensor, then converted into a biochemical signal, which can ultimately control the expression ...

Splicing Factor Mutations in Clonal Hematopoiesis and Progression to Myeloid Neoplasms
Cancer Science, EarlyView.Splicing factor (SF)‐mutant CH is characterized by relatively late emergence and accelerated clonal expansion in older individuals. This review summarizes its clonal dynamics, disease‐associated consequences of SF mutations in myeloid neoplasms, and candidate mechanisms that may contribute to age‐dependent selection.

Cancer Science, EarlyView.Multi‐omics integration of the transcriptomic APA landscape and m6A modifications identifies key prognostic genes. Their biological functions and molecular mechanisms in promoting tumor progression are comprehensively validated through in vitro assays. ABSTRACT Alternative polyadenylation (APA) and N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) methylation are critical post‐
