Computational identification and experimental characterization of preferred downstream positions in human core promoters

Philipp Bucher, René Dreos

Author summary Transcription of genes by the RNA polymerase II enzyme initiates at a genomic region termed the core promoter. The core promoter is a regulatory region that may contain diverse short DNA sequence motifs/elements that confer specific properti ...

Learning Intelligent Dialogs for Bounding Box Annotation

Ksenia Konyushkova, Vittorio Ferrari

We introduce Intelligent Annotation Dialogs for bounding box annotation. We train an agent to automatically choose a sequence of actions for a human annotator to produce a bounding box in a minimal amount of time. Specifically, we consider two actions: box ...

Highly Reduced Genome of the New Species Mycobacterium uberis, the Causative Agent of Nodular Thelitis and Tuberculoid Scrotitis in Livestock and a Close Relative of the Leprosy Bacilli

Stewart Cole, Andrej Benjak, Charlotte Avanzi

Nodular thelitis is a chronic enzootic infection affecting dairy cows and goats. The causative agent was recently shown to be related to the leprosy-causing bacilli Mycobacterium leprae and Mycobacterium lepromatosis. In this study, the genome of this path ...

Identifying and targeting key cellular mechanisms for proliferation in Plasmodium parasites: a combined experimental and computational strategy

Vassily Hatzimanikatis

Recent advances in cell genome editing techniques enable the generation of high-throughput gene knockout data in the malaria parasites in vivo. Integrative analysis of this data can lead to the identification of biological mechanisms that explain the obser ...

Olfactory receptor pseudo-pseudogenes

Matteo Dal Peraro, Benoîte Bargeton

Pseudogenes are generally considered to be non-functional DNA sequences that arise through nonsense or frame-shift mutations of protein-coding genes(1). Although certain pseudogene-derived RNAs have regulatory roles(2), and some pseudogene fragments are tr ...

The Characteristics of Heterozygous Protein Truncating Variants in the Human Genome

Jacques Fellay, Amalio Telenti, Istvan Bartha, Nimisha Chaturvedi

Sequencing projects have identified large numbers of rare stop-gain and frameshift variants in the human genome. As most of these are observed in the heterozygous state, they test a gene's tolerance to haploinsufficiency and dominant loss of function. We a ...

A novel homozygous R764H mutation in crumbs homolog 1 causes autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa

Purpose: Retinitis pigmentosa (RP; MIM 268000) is a hereditary disease characterized by poor night vision and progressive loss of photoreceptors, eventually leading to blindness. This degenerative process primarily affects peripheral vision due to the loss ...
