5’isomiR-183-5p|+2 elicits tumor suppressor activity in a negative feedback loop with E2F1
Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and isomiRs play important roles in tumorigenesis as essential regulators of gene expression. 5’isomiRs exhibit a shifted seed sequence compared to the canonical miRNA, resulting in different target spectra and thereby ...

Tuberculosis (TB) is an airborne communicable disease with high morbidity and mortality rates, especially in developing countries. The causal agents of TB belong to the complex Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTBc), which is composed of different human and ...

Expansion of CORE-SINEs in the genome of the Tasmanian devil [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundThe genome of the carnivorous marsupial, the Tasmanian devil (Sarcophilus harrisii, Order: Dasyuromorphia), was sequenced in the hopes of finding a cure for or gaining a better understanding of the contagious devil facial tumor disease that is threatening the species’ survival.

HierCC: a multi-level clustering scheme for population assignments based on core genome MLST
Motivation Routine infectious disease surveillance is increasingly based on large-scale whole genome sequencing databases. Real-time surveillance would benefit from immediate assignments of each genome assembly to hierarchical population structures. Here

Genome wide analysis of Arabidopsis core promoters [PDF]
Abstract Background Core promoters are the gene regulatory regions most proximal to the transcription start site (TSS), central to the formation of pre-initiation complexes and for combinatorial gene regulation. The DNA elements required for core promoter function in plants are poorly understood.

Background Genome editing using CRISPR/Cas9 has become a powerful tool in zebrafish to generate targeted gene knockouts models. However, its use for targeted knock-in remains challenging due to inefficient homology directed repair (HDR) pathway in ...

Transferable DNA markers are essential for breeding and genetics. Grapevine (Vitis) breeders utilize disease resistance alleles from congeneric species ~20 million years divergent, but existing Vitis marker platforms have cross-species transfer rates as ...

Tracy: basecalling, alignment, assembly and deconvolution of sanger chromatogram trace files
Background DNA sequencing is at the core of many molecular biology laboratories. Despite its long history, there is a lack of user-friendly Sanger sequencing data analysis tools that can be run interactively as a web application or at large-scale in ...

Comparative genomics of Drosophila and human core promoters [PDF]
Abstract Background The core promoter region plays a critical role in the regulation of eukaryotic gene expression. We have determined the non-random distribution of DNA sequences relative to the transcriptional start site in Drosophila melanogaster promoters to identify sequences that may be biologically
