A Machine Learning Approach for MicroRNA Precursor Prediction in Retro-transcribing Virus Genomes

Journal of Integrative Bioinformatics, 2016
Identification of microRNA (miRNA) precursors has seen increased efforts in recent years. The difficulty in experimental detection of pre-miRNAs increased the usage of computational approaches. Most of these approaches rely on machine learning especially

Implementation of nationwide screening of pregnant women for HTLV-1 infection in Japan: analysis of a repeated cross-sectional study

BMC Public Health, 2020
Background Screening of pregnant women carrying human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) has a crucial role in reducing the number of HTLV-1 carriers. A national HTLV-1 screening program for pregnant women was started in 2011 in Japan.

Human T-Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 Transcription and Chromatin-Remodeling Complexes [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 2010
ABSTRACT Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) encodes the viral protein Tax, which is believed to act as a viral transactivator through its interactions with a variety of transcription factors, including CREB and NF-κB. As is the case for all retroviruses, the provirus is inserted into the host DNA, where nucleosomes are deposited to ...
