Computational analysis of miRNA-target community network reveals cross talk among different metabolisms
نویسندگان
چکیده
To date, only a few conserved miRNAs have been predicted in hexaploid (AABBDD) bread wheat and till now community behavior among miRNA is still in dark. Analysis of publically available 1287279 ESTs from NCBI resulted 262 putative pre-miRNAs and 39 novel mature miRNAs. A total 22,468 targets were identified on 21 chromosomes. MiRNA target community was identified for genomes with different levels of cross talks. Gene ontology of these community targets suggests their differential involvement in different metabolisms along with common and stringent involvement in nitrogen metabolism.

Computational prediction of miRNAs in Nipah virus genome reveals possible interaction with human genes involved in encephalitis
Current re-emergence of Nipah virus (NiV) in India caused 11 deaths so far and many patients were kept in quarantine. A thorough study of previous outbreaks occurred in Malaysia, Bangladesh and India represents cases with high rate of fatality due to acute encephalitis. Our work involves genome analysis of NiV for prediction of miRNAs and their targeted genes in human in order to understand enc...
متن کاملAnalysis of clock gene-miRNA correlation networks reveals candidate drivers in colorectal cancer
Altered functioning of the biological clock is involved in cancer onset and progression. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) interact with the clock genes modulating the function of genetically encoded molecular clockworks. Collaborative interactions may take place within the coding-noncoding RNA regulatory networks. We aimed to evaluate the cross-talk among miRNAs and clock genes in colorectal cancer (CRC). We...
متن کاملNetwork analysis reveals cross-links of the immune pathways activated by bacteria and allergen.
Many biological networks are characterized by directed edges that represent either activating (positive) or inhibiting (negative) regulation. Most graph-theoretical methods used to study biological networks either disregard this important feature, or study the role of edge sign only in the context of small subgraphs called motifs. Here, we develop path-based measures which capture, on continuou...
