Searching for fat tails in CRISPR-Cas systems: Data analysis and mathematical modeling. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2021 Understanding CRISPR-Cas systems-the adaptive defence mechanism that about half of bacterial species and most of archaea use to neutralise viral attacks-is important for explaining the biodiversity observed in the microbial world as well as for editing ...

Rapid evolution of a retro-transposable hotspot of ovine genome underlies the alteration of BMP2 expression and development of fat tails [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2019 Background Sheep have developed the ability to store fat in their tails, which is a unique way of reserving energy to survive a harsh environment. However, the mechanism underlying this adaptive trait remains largely unsolved.

Risk Factors for Tail Alterations on German Dairy Farms [PDF]
AnimalsTail alterations represent an animal welfare concern in dairy cows. The objective of the present study was to identify the risk factors associated with the presence of deviated and shortened tails on 765 German dairy farms.

A Binary Decision Model and Fat Tails in Financial Market
Applied Sciences, 2022 Binary decision models have been the subject of renewed research in recent years. In these models, agents follow a stochastic evolution where they must choose between two possible choices by taking into account the choices of their peers.

Fat tails and the need to disclose distribution parameters of qEEG databases. [PDF]
PLoS ONENeurometry (a.k.a. quantitative EEG or qEEG) is a popular method to assess clinically relevant abnormalities in the electroencephalogram. Neurometry is based on norm values for the distribution of specific EEG parameters and believed to show good ...

Integrated multiomic profiling of tail adipose tissue highlights novel genes, lipids, and metabolites involved in tail fat deposition in sheep [PDF]
BMC GenomicsBackground Tail fat is important for fat-tailed or fat-rumped sheep to survive in harsh environments. However, the molecular mechanism underlying tail fat deposition in sheep remains unclear.

Fat-tail allele-specific expression genes may affect fat deposition in tail of sheep.
PLoS ONEDifferent sheep breeds show distinct phenotypic plasticity in fat deposition in the tails. The genetic background underlying fat deposition in the tail of sheep is complex, multifactorial, and may involve allele-specific expression (ASE) mechanism to ...
