Lysine Methyltransferase SMYD1 Regulates Myogenesis via skNAC Methylation

open access: yesCells, 2023
The SMYD family is a unique class of lysine methyltransferases (KMTases) whose catalytic SET domain is split by a MYND domain. Among these, Smyd1 was identified as a heart- and skeletal muscle-specific KMTase and is essential for cardiogenesis and ...

BTDNet: a Multi-Modal Approach for Brain Tumor Radiogenomic Classification [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Brain tumors pose significant health challenges worldwide, with glioblastoma being one of the most aggressive forms. Accurate determination of the O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter methylation status is crucial for personalized treatment strategies. However, traditional methods are labor-intensive and time-consuming.

Adaptive Fine-tuning based Transfer Learning for the Identification of MGMT Promoter Methylation Status [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) is an aggressive form of malignant brain tumor with a generally poor prognosis. Treatment usually includes a mix of surgical resection, radiation therapy, and akylating chemotherapy but, even with these intensive treatments, the 2-year survival rate is still very low.

A General Protein O-Glycosylation Gene Cluster Encodes the Species-Specific Glycan of the Oral Pathogen Tannerella forsythia: O-Glycan Biosynthesis and Immunological Implications

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
The cell surface of the oral pathogen Tannerella forsythia is heavily glycosylated with a unique, complex decasaccharide that is O-glycosidically linked to the bacterium’s abundant surface (S-) layer, as well as other proteins.

How large should the QM region be in QM/MM calculations? The case of catechol O-methyltransferase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Hybrid quantum mechanical-molecular mechanical (QM/MM) simulations are widely used in studies of enzymatic catalysis. Until recently, it has been cost prohibitive to determine the asymptotic limit of key energetic and structural properties with respect to increasingly large QM regions.

A metabolome genome-wide association study implicates histidine N-pi-methyltransferase as a key enzyme in N-methylhistidine biosynthesis in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
A genome-wide association study (GWAS), which uses information on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from many accessions, has become a powerful approach to gene identification.

Open-radiomics: A Collection of Standardized Datasets and a Technical Protocol for Reproducible Radiomics Machine Learning Pipelines [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Background: As an important branch of machine learning pipelines in medical imaging, radiomics faces two major challenges namely reproducibility and accessibility. In this work, we introduce open-radiomics, a set of radiomics datasets along with a comprehensive radiomics pipeline based on our proposed technical protocol to improve the reproducibility ...

Subtelomeric Chromatin in the Fission Yeast S. pombe

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Telomeres play important roles in safeguarding the genome. The specialized repressive chromatin that assembles at telomeres and subtelomeric domains is key to this protective role.
