Plant-RRBS, a bisulfite and next-generation sequencing-based methylome profiling method enriching for coverage of cytosine positions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Cytosine methylation in plant genomes is important for the regulation of gene transcription and transposon activity. Genome-wide methylomes are studied upon mutation of the DNA methyltransferases, adaptation to environmental stresses or ...

Origin of life: β‐sheet amyloid conformers as the primordial functional polymers on the early Earth and their role in the emergence of complex dynamic networks

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The amyloid world hypothesis of the origin‐of‐life posits that the first functional polymers on the early Earth were structurally stable cross‐β‐sheet‐based peptide amyloids capable of Darwinian‐like evolution. Peptide amyloids display self‐replication and information transfer, as well as catalytic, adaptive, and evolutive properties.

A transfer learning framework to elucidate the clinical relevance of altered proximal tubule cell states in kidney disease

open access: yesiScience
Summary: The application of single-cell technologies in clinical nephrology remains elusive. We generated an atlas of transcriptionally defined cell types and cell states of human kidney disease by integrating single-cell signatures reported in the ...

The Role of Spastin in Axon Biology

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Neurons are highly polarized cells with elaborate shapes that allow them to perform their function. In neurons, microtubule organization—length, density, and dynamics—are essential for the establishment of polarity, growth, and transport. A mounting body

The epithelial barrier theory proposes a comprehensive explanation for the origins of allergic and other chronic noncommunicable diseases

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...

Pathogenic KIAA0586/TALPID3 variants are associated with defects in primary and motile cilia

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Pathogenic variants in KIAA0586/TALPID3 are associated with the ciliopathy Joubert syndrome (JS). We report individuals with KIAA0586/TALPID3 variants affected by primary and motile cilia defects leading to JS and chronic destructive airway ...
