Evaluating the Number of Different Genomes in a Metagenome by  Means of the Compositional Spectra Approach

Evolution by natural selection is expected to be a slow and gradual process. In particular, the mutations that drive evolution are predicted to be small…

Frequency Chaos Game Representation (FCGR), an extended version of Chaos Game Representation (CGR), emerges as a robust strategy for DNA sequence encoding. The core principle…

Dravet syndrome is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) characterized by intractable seizures, comorbidities related to developmental, cognitive, and motor delays, and a high mortality…

From early in life, experiences like prenatal stress profoundly affect long-term health and behavior. Maternal stress increases fetal exposure to glucocorticoids (GC), disrupting neurodevelopment and…

Combinations of transcription factors govern the identity of cell types, which is reflected by enhancer codes in cis-regulatory genomic regions. Cell type-specific enhancer codes at…

The north Black Sea (Pontic) Region was the nexus of the farmers of Old Europe and the foragers and pastoralists of the Eurasian steppe, and…

The cerebral cortex is critical for advanced cognitive functions and relies on a vast network of neurons to carry out its highly intricate neural tasks.…

Background: Tracking of Insertions and DEletions (TIDE) analysis, which computationally deconvolves capillary sequencing data derived from the DNA of bulk or clonal cell populations to…

Many functions of ribonucleic acid (RNA) rely on its ability to assume specific sequence-structure motifs. Packaging signals of some RNA viruses – hairpin motifs that…

Recent breakthroughs in protein structure prediction have enhanced the precision and speed at which protein configurations can be determined, setting new benchmarks for accuracy and…
