Improved protocol for single-nucleus RNA-sequencing of frozen human bladder tumor biopsies
AbstractThis paper provides a laboratory workflow for single-nucleus RNA-sequencing (snRNA-seq) including a protocol for gentle nuclei isolation from fresh frozen tumor biopsies, making it possible to analyze biobanked material. To develop this protocol, we used non-frozen and frozen human bladder tumors and cell lines.

Identifying RNA splicing factors using IFT genes in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
Intraflagellar transport moves proteins in and out of flagella/cilia and it is essential for the assembly of these organelles. Using whole-genome sequencing, we identified splice site mutations in two IFT genes,

Understanding and evaluating ambiguity in single-cell and single-nucleus RNA-sequencing
Recently, a new modification has been proposed by Hjörleifsson and Sullivanet al. to the model used to classify the splicing status of reads (as spliced (mature), unspliced (nascent), or ambiguous) in single-cell and single-nucleus RNA-seq data. Here, we evaluate both the theoretical basis and practical implementation of the proposed method.

Rainbow Kaposi's Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus Revealed Heterogenic Replication with Dynamic Gene Expression. [PDF]
Molecular mechanisms of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) reactivation have been studied primarily by measuring the total or average activity of an infected cell population, which often consists of a mixture of both nonresponding and ...

FlsnRNA-seq: protoplasting-free full-length single-nucleus RNA profiling in plants
The broad application of single-cell RNA profiling in plants has been hindered by the prerequisite of protoplasting that requires digesting the cell walls from different types of plant tissues. Here, we present a protoplasting-free approach, flsnRNA-seq,

A Variable Polyglutamine Repeat Affects Subcellular Localization and Regulatory Activity of a Populus ANGUSTIFOLIA Protein. [PDF]
Polyglutamine (polyQ) stretches have been reported to occur in proteins across many organisms including animals, fungi and plants. Expansion of these repeats has attracted much attention due their associations with numerous human diseases including ...

Single-nuclei transcriptomics enable detection of somatic variants in patient brain tissue
Somatic variants are a major cause of human disease, including neurological disorders like focal epilepsies, but can be challenging to study due to their mosaicism in bulk tissue biopsies.

The how and why of lncRNA function: An innate immune perspective. [PDF]
Next-generation sequencing has provided a more complete picture of the composition of the human transcriptome indicating that much of the "blueprint" is a vastness of poorly understood non-protein-coding transcripts.

An unbiased genetic screen reveals the polygenic nature of the influenza virus anti-interferon response. [PDF]
Influenza A viruses counteract the cellular innate immune response at several steps, including blocking RIG I-dependent activation of interferon (IFN) transcription, interferon (IFN)-dependent upregulation of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs), and the activity
