Misregulation of mitochondrial 6mA promotes the propagation of mutant mtDNA and causes aging in C. elegans
Abstract In virtually all eukaryotes, the mitochondrial genome (mitochondrial DNA, mtDNA) encodes proteins necessary for oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and the RNA machinery required for their synthesis inside the mitochondria. Appropriate regulation of mtDNA copy number and expression is essential for ensuring the correct stoichiometric formation of OXPHOS complexes assembled from…

Researchers from the group of Eva van Rooij now discovered how a mutation in the desmosomal gene plakophilin-2 leads to ACM. They…
TwinCons: Conservation score for uncovering deep sequence similarity and divergence
Penev, Petar I.; Claudia Alvarez-Carreno; Eric Smith; Anton S. Petrov and Loren Dean Williams We have developed the program TwinCons, to detect noisy signals of deep ancestry of proteins or nucleic acids. As input, the program uses a composite alignment containing pre-defined groups, and mathematically determines a ‘cost’ of transforming…
Pan-genome inversion index reveals evolutionary insights into the subpopulation structure of Asian rice
The 18-genome data package To investigate the genome inversion landscape of Asian rice from a population structure perspective, we first combined a set of 16 previously published high-quality genomes32,33,34 that represent the K = 15 population structure of O. sativa, plus the largest Xian/indica (XI) admixed subpopulation (XI-adm: Minghui 63 (MH63)) to…

how to know what adapter sequences to trim for RNA-seq?
how to know what adapter sequences to trim for RNA-seq? 0 Hello, I’m very new to RNA-seq analysis and am currently stuck on the trimming step. The libraries I am trying to analyze were built using the NEXTFLEX Rapid Directional RNA-seq kit with their Unique Dual Index Barcodes (perkinelmer-appliedgenomics.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/NOVA-51292X-NEXTFLEX-RNA-Seq-2-0-UDI-Barcodes-V22-02-new.pdf).

Meet DiNiro: An Interactive Platform for Single-cell RNAseq-based Gene Regulatory Network Analysis
Scientists from the University of Hamburg, Germany, have developed a novel methodology, DiNiro, for unraveling differential regulatory disease mechanisms from single-cell RNA-seq data. Computational tools for analyzing differential gene expression profiles and differential pathway expression have been previously developed. DiNiro is the first known method based on single-cell data for…
Non-Existent Vaccine Microchips Could Soon Be Banned in Missouri
Stock photo of a microchip in a syringe Missouri state legislators are trying to regulate the fabricated scene inside this stock photo. A subset of Missouri legislators care deeply about freedom. For instance: The God-given right to NOT accept a life-saving vaccination and still attend public school or go to…
rna seq – RNAseq: Why would using a more complete scaffold reduce DEGs?
Fungi, ain’t a kingdom most of us will know much about. The only thing I can guess at is that in bacteria there has resurgence in methods for de novo assembly specifically aimed at reducing the total number of contigs in an assembly. The ‘new wave’ is summarised in this…
GAS-STING signaling plays an essential pathogenetic role in Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity | BMC Pharmacology and Toxicology
Experimental animals and DOX treatment All animal experiments performed on live animals were approved by Fudan University’s Committee on the Ethics of Animal Experiments and adhered to relevant guidelines including the ARRIVE guidelines for animal experiments in the study.

New, easy-to-design RNA-based sensor can detect and automatically respond to molecular triggers within cells — ScienceDaily
More than twelve billion doses of mRNA vaccines have been administered globally since the start of the COVID pandemic, saving millions of lives. But RNA-based therapies for other diseases have so far proven more challenging to develop. The full-body immune response caused by mRNA vaccines is fantastic for fighting off…
Why does a leukemic mutation not always lead to leukemia? A new clue from a mouse study
Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain Why do some people with a genetic mutation associated with leukemia remain healthy, while others with the same mutation develop the blood cancer? In a new study published in Blood, scientists from the USC Stem Cell laboratory of Rong Lu discovered a mechanism that linked a…
Single-nuclei RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) uncovers trophoblast cell types and lineages in the mature bovine placenta
Ruminants have a semi-invasive placenta, which possess highly vascularized placentomes formed by maternal endometrial caruncles and fetal placental cotyledons and required for fetal development to term. The synepitheliochorial placenta of cattle contains at least two trophoblast cell populations, including uninucleate (UNC) and binucleate (BNC) cells that are most abundant in…
