The Genetic Code revisited: Inner-to-outer map, 2D-Gray map, and World-map Genetic Representations [PDF]

Lecture Notes in Computer Science, LNCS 3124, Heidelberg: Springer Verlag, vol.1, pp.526-531, 2004, 2015
How to represent the genetic code? Despite the fact that it is extensively known, the DNA mapping into proteins remains as one of the relevant discoveries of genetics. However, modern genomic signal processing usually requires converting symbolic-DNA strings into complex-valued signals in order to take full advantage of a broad variety of digital ...

Detailed kinship estimation for detecting bias among breeding families in a reintroduced population of the endangered bagrid catfish Tachysurus ichikawai

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
In the process of captive breeding and reintroduction of endangered animal species, it is crucial to minimize familial bias in reproductive success during the reintroduction phase to preserve genetic diversity. In this study, we attempted to identify the familial lineage of individuals of the endangered bagrid fish Tachysurus ichikawai born at the ...

Optimal SNP filtering strategies for pedigree reconstruction: A case study with wild red‐spotted masu salmon population

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
In this article, we tested optimal SNP filtering strategies for accurate parentage assignment and pedigree reconstruction for a wild population of red‐spotted masu salmon, Oncorhynchus masou ishikawae. We found that mid‐point filtering in terms of call rate and minor allele frequency performs well for pedigree reconstruction.

Dalla creazione alla programmazione. Il concetto di vita nell’era della biologia sintetica [PDF]

S&F_scienzaefilosofia.it, 2014
This paper aims to organize a reflection about the recent developing field of synthetic biology. It is structured into three main parts. The first one tries to point out the features of this emerging field (the analogies and the differences with the ...

Evaluating the origin and spread of spotted lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula) in Japan

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
The invasive spotted lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula) is native to China and is a serious economic pest in the Republic of Korea and the United States, though it is not considered a pest in Japan. We established a distribution map of L. delicatula in Japan through a comprehensive review of published literature and citizen science reports and analyzed ...

CIGB-300, a synthetic peptide-based drug that targets the CK2 phosphoaceptor domain. Translational and clinical research [PDF]

, 2011
CK2 represents an oncology target scientifically validated. However, clinical research with inhibitors of the CK2-mediated phosphorylation event is still insufficient to recognize it as a clinically validated target.

Comparison of kinship‐identification methods for robust stock assessment using close‐kin mark–recapture data for Pacific bluefin tuna

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
In this study, we compared three methods for kinship identification using different algorithms in samples of wild Pacific bluefin tuna and generated genotyping data. The three methods resulted in different numbers of inferred kinship pairs for both generated and actual data. Particularly for the half‐sibling pairs, considerable number of false‐positive

Social acceptance of genetic engineering technology

PLoS ONE, 2023
Genetic engineering of animals has been proposed to address societal problems, but public acceptance of the use of this technology is unclear. Previous work has shown that the source of information proposing the technology (e.g. companies, universities),

Ranking labs-of-origin for genetically engineered DNA using Metric Learning [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
With the constant advancements of genetic engineering, a common concern is to be able to identify the lab-of-origin of genetically engineered DNA sequences. For that reason, AltLabs has hosted the genetic Engineering Attribution Challenge to gather many teams to propose new tools to solve this problem.

MagGene: A genetic evolution program for magnetic structure prediction [PDF]

, 2020
We have developed a software MagGene to predict magnetic structures by using genetic algorithm. Starting from an atom structure, MagGene repeatedly generates new magnetic structures and calls first-principles calculation engine to get the most stable structure. This software is applicable to both collinear and noncollinear systems.
