It is widely believed that tertiary nucleotide-nucleotide interactions are essential in determining RNA structure and function. Currently, direct coupling analysis (DCA) infers nucleotide contacts...

Are you interested in analysing the expression dynamics in single cell RNAseq data, and estimating the RNA velocity of single cells? This talk (https://youtu.be/EPTgF4EA2zY) introduces the Velocyto package (http://velocyto.org/), winner of the SIB Bioinformatics Awards 2019 in the category Bioinformatics ...

The regulation of the transcriptome is key to cellular processes that underpin cell biology, development and tissue function. All classes of cellular RNA are subject to post-transcriptional modification, be it by direct chemical modification, editing or non-templated nucleotide additions. It ...

Biosensors are biological molecules able to detect and report the presence of a target molecule by the emission of a signal. Nucleic acids are particularly appealing for the design of such molecule since their...

The importance of diversity and cellular specialization is clear for many reasons, from population-level diversification, to improved resiliency to unforeseen stresses, to unique functions within...

EMBL Course: Shift your DNA and RNA Sequencing Library Preparation into Hyper-Drive Course Overview The goal of this hands-on course is to teach the fundamentals of RNA and DNA library preparation for next generation sequencing applications. RNA depletion and enrichment strategies ...

One postdoctoral position is available within SomaGenics’ R&D group in the area of Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS). We are a small and dynamic research group building on our low-bias RealSeq® technology platform for RNA and DNA sequencing kits. We are seeking ...

Researchers at Oregon State University have used deep learning to decipher which ribonucleic acids have the potential to encode proteins. The gated recurrent neural network developed in the College...

Transcriptional mutagenesis (TM) due to misincorporation during RNA transcription can result in mutant RNAs, or epimutations, that generate proteins with altered properties. TM has long been hypothesized to play a role in aging, cancer, and viral and bacterial evolution. However, ...
