FreePSI: an alignment-free approach to estimating exon-inclusion ratios without a reference transcriptome. [PDF]

, 2017
Alternative splicing plays an important role in many cellular processes of eukaryotic organisms. The exon-inclusion ratio, also known as percent spliced in, is often regarded as one of the most effective measures of alternative splicing events.

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

Intracellular Staphylococcus aureus persisters upon antibiotic exposure

Nature Communications, 2020
Bacterial persister cells exhibit a transient non-growing state and antibiotic tolerance. Here, Peyrusson et al. provide evidence of metabolically active Staphylococcus aureus persisters within infected host cells exposed to antibiotics and analyse ...

Single cell transcriptome analysis using next generation sequencing. [PDF]

, 2010
The heterogeneity of tissues, especially in cancer research, is a central issue in transcriptome analysis. In recent years, research has primarily focused on the development of methods for single cell analysis. Single cell analysis aims at gaining (novel)

Cytological and transcript analyses reveal fat and lazy persister-like bacilli in tuberculous sputum [PDF]

, 2008
As nonreplicating tubercle bacilli are tolerant to the cidal action of antibiotics and resistant to multiple stresses, identification of this persister-like population of tubercle bacilli in sputum presents exciting and tractable new opportunities to ...

Transcriptome-wide isoform-level dysregulation in ASD, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder

Science, 2018
INTRODUCTION Our understanding of the pathophysiology of psychiatric disorders, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD), schizophrenia (SCZ), and bipolar disorder (BD), lags behind other fields of medicine.

Novel and unscrutinized immune entities of the zebrafish gut

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Understudied cells of the zebrafish immune system include bona fide immune cells and epithelial (‐derived) cells with immune functions. Research focusing on zebrafish cells which demonstrate similarities to mammalian immune cell counterparts may help us understand the pathologies in which they are implicated. Currently available and advanced tools make

Decryption of sequence, structure, and functional features of SINE repeat elements in SINEUP non-coding RNA-mediated post-transcriptional gene regulation

Nature Communications
RNA structure folding largely influences RNA regulation by providing flexibility and functional diversity. In silico and in vitro analyses are limited in their ability to capture the intricate relationships between dynamic RNA structure and RNA ...

FUS mutant human motoneurons display altered transcriptome and microRNA pathways with implications for ALS pathogenesis [PDF]

, 2017
The FUS gene has been linked to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). FUS is a ubiquitous RNA-binding protein, and the mechanisms leading to selective motoneuron loss downstream of ALS-linked mutations are largely unknown.

A gene-based association method for mapping traits using reference transcriptome data

Nature Genetics, 2015
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified thousands of variants robustly associated with complex traits. However, the biological mechanisms underlying these associations are, in general, not well understood.
