mirTools: microRNA profiling and discovery based on high-throughput sequencing
miRNAs are small, non-coding RNA that negatively regulate gene expression at post-transcriptional level, which play crucial roles in various physiological and pathological processes, such as development and tumorigenesis. Although deep sequencing technologies have been applied to investigate various small RNA transcriptomes, their computational methods are far away from maturation as compared t...
متن کاملHigh-throughput mycobacterial interspersed repetitive-unit-variable-number tandem-repeat genotyping for Mycobacterium tuberculosis epidemiological studies.
The emergence of drug-resistant forms of tuberculosis (TB) represents a major public health concern. Understanding the transmission routes of the disease is a key factor for its control and for the implementation of efficient interventions. Mycobacterial interspersed repetitive-unit-variable-number tandem-repeat (MIRU-VNTR) marker typing is a well-described method for lineage identification and...
متن کاملSegmental Duplications as a Complement Strategy to Short Tandem Repeats in the Prenatal Diagnosis of Down Syndrome
Background: Quantitative fluorescence-polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) is an inexpensive and accurate method for the prenatal diagnosis of aneuploidies that applies short tandem repeats (STRs) as a chromosome-specific marker. Despite its apparent advantages, QF-PCR is not applicable in all cases due to the presence of uninformative STRs. This study was carried out to investigate the efficienc...
متن کاملPilot genome-wide study of tandem 3′ UTRs in esophageal cancer using high-throughput sequencing
Regulatory regions within the 3' untranslated region (UTR) influence polyadenylation (polyA), translation efficiency, localization and stability of mRNA. Alternative polyA (APA) has been considered to have a key role in gene regulation since 2008. Esophageal carcinoma is the eighth most common type of cancer worldwide. The association between polyA and disease highlights the requirement for com...
متن کاملGenome variation discovery with high-throughput sequencing data
The advent of high-throughput sequencing (HTS) technologies is enabling sequencing of human genomes at a significantly lower cost. The availability of these genomes is hoped to enable novel medical diagnostics and treatment, specific to the individual, thus launching the era of personalized medicine. The data currently generated by HTS machines require extensive computational analysis in order ...
