Sequencing Platform Modeling and Analysis [PDF]
As the cost rapidly declines, the next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies are becoming the main work horse of modern molecular biology to measure the abundance of genomic markers. NGS offers a number of technical advantages such as a greater dynamic range for measuring abundance and a higher resolution for low abundance molecules; moreover, it ...

occumb: An R package for site occupancy modeling of eDNA metabarcoding data
This study introduces a new R package, occumb, for the convenient application of site occupancy modeling using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding data. We outline a data analysis workflow, including data setup, model fitting, model assessment, and comparison of potential study settings based on model predictions, all of which can be performed using

Outbreak tracking of Aleutian mink disease virus (AMDV) using partial NS1 gene sequencing
Background Aleutian Mink Disease (AMD) is an infectious disease of mink (Neovison vison) and globally a major cause of economic losses in mink farming. The disease is caused by Aleutian Mink Disease Virus (AMDV) that belongs to the genus Amdoparvovirus ...

Analysis of the Sequence Preference of Saporin by Deep Sequencing
Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are RNA:adenosine glycosidases that inactivate eukaryotic ribosomes by depurinating the sarcin-ricin loop (SRL) in 28S rRNA. The GAGA sequence at the top of the SRL or at the top of a hairpin loop is assumed to be their target motif.

Infection Models for Pine Wilt Disease on the Basis of Vector Behaviors
Infection models for pine wilt disease without vector density were built to estimate the transmission coefficient of the pathogenic nematode. The models successfully simulated the annual change in the density of infected trees for four pine stands. ABSTRACT Pine wilt disease is caused by the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner et ...

Classifying Genomic Sequences by Sequence Feature Analysis
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.

Sequencing and analysis of bacterial genomes [PDF]
The complete sequences of two small bacterial genomes have recently become available, and those of several more species should follow within the next two years. Sequence comparisons show that the most bacterial proteins are highly conserved in evolution, allowing predictions to be made about the functions of most products of an uncharacterized genome ...

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.
