Human mast cell activation through Fc receptors and Toll-like receptors
Mast cells express high-affinity IgE receptors (FcεRI) on their surface and can be activated to secrete a variety of biologically active mediators by cross-linking of receptor-bound IgE.

And Now, Transcriptomics [PDF]
In this issue of Neuron, report different patterns of 5-HT2C pre-mRNA editing in suicide victims, as compared to controls. Treatment of mice with fluoxetine alters the pattern of 5-HT2C transcript editing in the direction opposite that observed for suicide victims.

The transcriptome of metamorphosing flatfish [PDF]
Flatfish metamorphosis denotes the extraordinary transformation of a symmetric pelagic larva into an asymmetric benthic juvenile. Metamorphosis in vertebrates is driven by thyroid hormones (THs), but how they orchestrate the cellular, morphological and functional modifications associated with maturation to juvenile/adult states in flatfish is an enigma.

BAT: Bisulfite Analysis Toolkit [version 1; referees: 2 approved]
Here, we present BAT, a modular bisulfite analysis toolkit, that facilitates the analysis of bisulfite sequencing data. It covers the essential analysis steps of read alignment, quality control, extraction of methylation information, and calling of ...

Defining the nociceptor transcriptome [PDF]
Unbiased "omics" techniques, such as next generation RNA-sequencing, can provide entirely novel insights into biological systems. However, cellular heterogeneity presents a significant barrier to analysis and interpretation of these datasets.

Gene Regulation and Transcriptomics [PDF]
Borrelia (Borreliella) burgdorferi, along with closely related species, is the etiologic agent of Lyme disease. The spirochete subsists in an enzootic cycle that encompasses acquisition from a vertebrate host to a tick vector and transmission from a tick vector to a vertebrate host.

Evolution of the unspliced transcriptome [PDF]
Despite their abundance, unspliced EST data have received little attention as a source of information on non-coding RNAs. Very little is know, therefore, about the genomic distribution of unspliced non-coding transcripts and their relationship with the much better studied regularly spliced products. In particular, their evolution has remained virtually

The Human Mitochondrial Transcriptome [PDF]
The human mitochondrial genome comprises a distinct genetic system transcribed as precursor polycistronic transcripts that are subsequently cleaved to generate individual mRNAs, tRNAs, and rRNAs. Here, we provide a comprehensive analysis of the human mitochondrial transcriptome across multiple cell lines and tissues.

Palindromic DNA sequences, which can form secondary structures, are widely distributed in the human genome. Although the nature of the secondary structure—single-stranded hairpin or double-stranded cruciform—has been extensively investigated in vitro ...

We have now entered in the post-genomic era, where we have knowledge of plethora of fungal genomes and cutting edge technology is available to study global mRNA, protein and metabolite profiles. These so-called 'omic' technologies (transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics) provide the possibility to characterize plant-pathogen interactions and ...
