Unconventional mRNA processing and degradation pathways for the polycistronic yrzI (spyTA) mRNA in Bacillus subtilis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The S1025 peptide is the major antidote to the YrzI toxin, which we renamed here as SpyT (Small Peptide YrzI Toxin) and SpyA (Small Peptide YrzI Antitoxin) (1). Degradation of the toxin–antitoxin spyTA mRNA, either by a translation‐dependent cleavage by the endoribonuclease Rae1 (2) or by direct attack by 3′‐exoribonucleases (3), also contributes to ...

Hypergraph covering problems motivated by genome assembly questions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
The Consecutive-Ones Property (C1P) is a classical concept in discrete mathematics that has been used in several genomics applications, from physical mapping of contemporary genomes to the assembly of ancient genomes. A common issue in genome assembly concerns repeats, genomic sequences that appear in several locations of a genome.

Refining the NaV1.7 pharmacophore of a class of venom‐derived peptide inhibitors via a combination of in silico screening and rational engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Venom peptides have shown promise in treating pain. Our study uses computer screening to identify a peptide that targets a sodium channel (NaV1.7) linked to chronic pain. We produced the peptide in the laboratory and refined its design, advancing the search for innovative pain therapies.

A Multilocus Sequence Analysis Scheme for Phylogeny of Thioclava Bacteria and Proposal of Two Novel Species

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
A multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA) was established and performed on the genus Thioclava, including 23 strains isolated from diverse marine environments, with the aim of better differentiation of strains and species within this genus.

Identification of novel small molecule inhibitors of ETS transcription factors

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
ETS transcription factors play an essential role in tumourigenesis and are indispensable for sprouting angiogenesis, a hallmark of cancer, which fuels tumour expansion and dissemination. Thus, targeting ETS transcription factor function could represent an effective, multifaceted strategy to block tumour growth. The evolutionarily conserved E‐Twenty‐Six

High-Quality Genome Assembly of Peronospora destructor, the Causal Agent of Onion Downy Mildew

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2020
Peronospora destructor is an obligate biotrophic oomycete that causes downy mildew on onion (Allium cepa). Onion is an important crop worldwide, but its production is affected by this pathogen. We sequenced the genome of P.

GMOL: An Interactive Tool for 3D Genome Structure Visualization [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
It has been shown that genome spatial structures largely affect both genome activity and DNA function. Knowing this, many researchers are currently attempting to accurately model genome structures. Despite these increased efforts there still exists a shortage of tools dedicated to visualizing the genome.

Unlocking the potential of tumor‐derived DNA in urine for cancer detection: methodological challenges and opportunities

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Urine is a rich source of biomarkers for cancer detection. Tumor‐derived material is released into the bloodstream and transported to the urine. Urine can easily be collected from individuals, allowing non‐invasive cancer detection. This review discusses the rationale behind urine‐based cancer detection and its potential for cancer diagnostics ...

A Chromosome-Scale Genome Assembly Resource for Myriosclerotinia sulcatula Infecting Sedge Grass (Carex sp.)

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2020
The fungus Myriosclerotinia sulcatula is a close relative of the notorious polyphagous plant pathogens Botrytis cinerea and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum but exhibits a host range restricted to plants from the Carex genus (Cyperaceae family).
