Will gene markers predict hypertension? [PDF]

open access: yesHypertension, 1989
It may be unrealistic to expect a pure monogenic (single gene) explanation for most patients with a disorder as common and heterogeneous as essential hypertension. However, gene marker technology can be combined with risk factor epidemiology to try to quantitate the risk of hypertension and sort out ...

Intron length distributions and gene prediction [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2007
Accurate gene prediction in eukaryotes is a difficult and subtle problem. Here we point out a useful feature of expected distributions of spliceosomal intron lengths. Since introns are removed from transcripts prior to translation, intron lengths are not expected to respect coding frame, thus the number of genomic introns that are a multiple of three ...

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

PREDICTING GENE FUNCTION FROM GENE EXPRESSIONS AND ONTOLOGIES [PDF]

open access: yesBiocomputing 2001, 2000
We introduce a methodology for inducing predictive rule models for functional classification of gene expressions from microarray hybridisation experiments. The basic learning method is the rough set framework for rule induction. The methodology is different from the commonly used unsupervised clustering approaches in that it exploits background ...

The intracellular domain of TLR2 is capable of high‐affinity Zn binding: possible outcomes for the receptor activation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) are important in the innate immune system. This study explores the zinc‐binding ability of the TLR2 TIR domain (TLR2TIR). We found that TLR2TIR binds zinc with nanomolar affinity through its cysteine residues. Two of them, C673 and C713, are vital for receptor activation, indicating that zinc may play a role in initiating ...

Feature selection for gene prediction in metagenomic fragments

open access: yesBioData Mining, 2018
Computational approaches, specifically machine-learning techniques, play an important role in many metagenomic analysis algorithms, such as gene prediction.

The power of microRNA regulation—insights into immunity and metabolism

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
MicroRNAs are emerging as crucial regulators at the intersection of metabolism and immunity. This review examines how miRNAs coordinate glucose and lipid metabolism while simultaneously modulating T‐cell development and immune responses. Moreover, it highlights how cutting‐edge artificial intelligence applications can identify miRNA biomarkers ...

VIRGO: computational prediction of gene functions [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2006
Dramatic advances in sequencing technology and sophisticated experimental assays that interrogate the cell, combined with the public availability of the resulting data, herald the era of systems biology. However, the biological functions of more than 40% of the genes in sequenced genomes are unknown, posing a fundamental barrier to progress in systems ...

The cytoskeletal control of B cell receptor and integrin signaling in normal B cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

TITER: predicting translation initiation sites by deep learning. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
MotivationTranslation initiation is a key step in the regulation of gene expression. In addition to the annotated translation initiation sites (TISs), the translation process may also start at multiple alternative TISs (including both AUG and non-AUG ...
