Background: Recent mapping of eukaryotic transcriptomes and spliceomes using massively parallel RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) has revealed that the extent of alternative splicing has been considerably underestimated. Evidence also suggests that many pre-mRNAs undergo unproductive alternative splicing resulting in incorporation of in-frame premature termination codons (PTCs). The destinies and potential functions...
Background:
Identifying cis-regulatory elements is critical in understanding the direct and indirect regulatory mechanisms of gene expression. Current approaches include DNase-seq, a technique that combines sensitivity to the nonspecific endonuclease DNase I with high throughput sequencing to identify regions of regulatory DNA on a genome-wide scale. While this method was...
In 1964, Zarantonello published a constructive method for
the solution of certain nonlinear problems in a Hilbert space. We
extend the method in various directions including a generalization
to a Banach space setting. A revealing geometric interpretation of
the method yields guidelines for the analysis.
BACKGROUND: Circadian clocks provide an adaptive advantage through anticipation of daily and seasonal environmental
changes. In plants, the central clock oscillator is regulated by several interlocking feedback loops. It was shown that a
substantial proportion of the Arabidopsis genome cycles with phases of peak expression covering the entire day.
Synchronized...

Plants possess two myosin classes, VIII and XI. The myosins XI are implicated in organelle transport, filamentous actin
organization, and cell and plant growth. Due to the large size of myosin gene families, knowledge of these molecular motors
remains patchy. Using deep transcriptome sequencing and bioinformatics, we systematically investigated myosin...

G. F. Drukarev has given a method for solving the Fredholm
equations which arise in the study of collisions between electrons
and atoms. He transforms the Fredholm equations into Volterra
equations plus finite algebraic systems. H. Brysk observes that
Drukarev's method applies generally to a Fredholm integral equation
