Circular RNAs are an emerging class of transcript isoforms created by unique back splicing of exons to form a closed covalent circular structure. While...

RNA should be a terrible drug target. It’s long, noodle-like structure lacks the nooks and crannies that small-molecule drugs use to grab onto proteins and thereby control them. But a decades-old disregard for RNA is starting to change...

While the reconstruction of transcripts from a sample of RNA-Seq data is a computationally expensive and complicated task, the detection of splicing events...

MicroRNAs, the tiny bits of genetic material that regulate gene expression, play a significant – but poorly understood – role in controlling the differences between individual cells....

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) allows researchers to collect large catalogues detailing the transcriptomes of individual cells. Unsupervised clustering is of central importance for the analysis of these data, as it is used to identify putative cell types...
