Towards understanding genome regulation via high-resolution analysis of chromatin accessibility by Dai, L

“…<p>Next generation sequencing has been used to in functional genomics to rep- resent specific aspects of chromatin structure, DNA-protein interactions and the epigenome, enriching the knowledge of the non-coding genome which plays significantly roles in gene regulation but is vaguely understood. …”

Low magnetic field exposure alters prostate cancer cell properties by Lange, Sigrun, Inal, Jameel, Kraev, Igor, Dart, Dafydd Alwyn, Uysal-Onganer, Pinar

“…Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are crucial mediators of cellular communication with multifaceted roles in cancer progression, including via transport and uptake of various protein and microRNA (miRNA) EV-cargoes. miRNAs regulate gene expression and are implicated in cancer-related processes such as proliferation, metastasis, and chemoresistance. …”

Enhancing extracellular electron transfer of Shewanella to improve the performance of microbial fuel cells by Ting, Liu

“…Electroactive biofilms play essential roles in determining the power output of MFCs. To engineer the electroactive biofilm formation of Shewanella oneidensis MR-1, a c-di-GMP biosynthesis gene ydeH was heterologously overexpressed in S. oneidensis MR-1, generating an engineered strain in which the expression of ydeH is under the control of IPTG-inducible promoter, and a strain in which ydeH is under the control of a constitutive promoter. …”
