Identification of serum tRNA-derived small RNAs biosignature for diagnosis of tuberculosis [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Microbes and Infections
The tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) are a new class of non coding RNAs, which are stable in body fluids and can be used as potential biomarkers for disease diagnosis.

Alternative Methylated Biosignatures. I. Methyl Bromide, a Capstone Biosignature

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
The first potential exoplanetary biosignature detections are likely to be ambiguous due to the potential for false positives: abiotic planetary processes that produce observables similar to those anticipated from a global biosphere.
