FASTAptamer: A Bioinformatic Toolkit for High-throughput Sequence Analysis of Combinatorial Selections

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2015
High-throughput sequence (HTS) analysis of combinatorial selection populations accelerates lead discovery and optimization and offers dynamic insight into selection processes. An underlying principle is that selection enriches high-fitness sequences as a

Peptide‐based ligand antagonists block a Vibrio cholerae adhesin

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The structure of a peptide‐binding domain of the Vibrio cholerae adhesin FrhA was solved by X‐ray crystallography, revealing how the inhibitory peptide AGYTD binds tightly at its Ca2+‐coordinated pocket. Structure‐guided design incorporating D‐amino acids enhanced binding affinity, providing a foundation for developing anti‐adhesion therapeutics ...

Classifying Genomic Sequences by Sequence Feature Analysis

open access: yesGenomics, Proteomics & Bioinformatics, 2005
Abstract Traditional sequence analysis depends on sequence alignment. In this study, we analyzed various functional regions of the human genome based on sequence features, including word frequency, dinucleotide relative abundance, and base-base correlation.

MMseqs2: sensitive protein sequence searching for the analysis of massive data sets

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2017
Sequencing costs have dropped much faster than Moore's law in the past decade, and sensitive sequence searching has become the main bottleneck in the analysis of large (meta)genomic datasets. While previous methods sacrificed sensitivity for speed gains,

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

Growth and financial reforms trajectory: an optimal matching sequence analysis approach [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper makes two important , even if preliminary, methodological contributions to the financial reforms literature. The first contribution is that it introduces a new framework for the metric of sequence analysis, namely, Optimal Matching Sequence ...

Real‐time assay of ribonucleotide reductase activity with a fluorescent RNA aptamer

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ribonucleotide reductases (RNR) synthesize DNA building blocks de novo, making them crucial in DNA replication and drug targeting. FLARE introduces the first single‐tube real‐time coupled RNR assay, which enables isothermal tracking of RNR activity at nanomolar enzyme levels and allows the reconstruction of allosteric regulatory patterns and rapid ...

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

Intricate interactions between fine-scale genetic structure, lifestyle, and dietary habits in the Japanese population

open access: yesCommunications Biology
The fine-scale genetic structure within populations, focusing on demographic histories and migration patterns, has been explored previously. However, limited attention has been paid to understanding how genetic structure influences lifestyle and dietary ...

Pathways to death: The co-occurrence of physical and mental health in the last years of life

open access: yesDemographic Research, 2018
Background: Physical and mental health are important markers of quality of life. Little is known about how they unfold in tandem in the last years of life.
