Development of a Biocontained Toluene-Degrading Bacterium for Environmental Protection

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2021
Biocontainment is a safeguard strategy for preventing uncontrolled proliferation of genetically engineered microorganisms (GEMs) in the environment. Biocontained GEMs are designed to survive only in the presence of a specific molecule.

Sequence modeling and design from molecular to genome scale with Evo

open access: yesbioRxiv
The genome is a sequence that completely encodes the DNA, RNA, and proteins that orchestrate the function of a whole organism. Advances in machine learning combined with massive datasets of whole genomes could enable a biological foundation model that ...

Single-cell sequencing in stem cell biology

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2016
Cell-to-cell variation and heterogeneity are fundamental and intrinsic characteristics of stem cell populations, but these differences are masked when bulk cells are used for omic analysis. Single-cell sequencing technologies serve as powerful tools to dissect cellular heterogeneity comprehensively and to identify distinct phenotypic cell types, even ...

Speciation Through the Lens of Population Dynamics: A Theoretical Primer on How Small and Large Populations Diverge

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Population size and dynamics fundamentally shape speciation by influencing genetic drift, founder events, and adaptive potential. Small populations may speciate rapidly due to stronger drift, whereas large populations harbor more genetic diversity, which can alter divergence trajectories. We highlight theoretical models that incorporate population size

A Hands-On Activity to Demonstrate the Central Dogma of Molecular Biology Via a Simulated VDJ Recombination Activity

open access: yesJournal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2017
Essential or enduring understandings are often defined as the underlying core concepts or “big ideas” we’d like our students to remember when much of the course content has been forgotten.

Deep learning sequence-based ab initio prediction of variant effects on expression and disease risk

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2018
Key challenges for human genetics, precision medicine and evolutionary biology include deciphering the regulatory code of gene expression and understanding the transcriptional effects of genome variation.

Skin microbiota in health and disease: From sequencing to biology [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Dermatology, 2020
AbstractMicrobiota live in a closely regulated interaction with their environment, and vice versa. The presence and absence of microbial entities is greatly influenced by features of the niche in which they thrive. Characteristic of this phenomenon is that different human skin sites harbor niche‐specific communities of microbes.

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

G-quadruplexes and their regulatory roles in biology

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2015
‘If G-quadruplexes form so readily in vitro, Nature will have found a way of using them in vivo’ (Statement by Aaron Klug over 30 years ago). During the last decade, four-stranded helical structures called G-quadruplex (or G4) have emerged from being a ...
