    Integrated multi-omics analyses identify anti-viral host factors and pathways controlling SARS-CoV-2 infection

    Host anti-viral factors are essential for controlling SARS-CoV-2 infection but remain largely unknown due to the biases of previous large-scale studies toward pro-viral host factors. To fill in this knowledge ...

    Systematic functional interrogation of human pseudogenes using CRISPRi

    The human genome encodes over 14,000 pseudogenes that are evolutionary relics of protein-coding genes and commonly considered as nonfunctional. Emerging evidence suggests that some pseudogenes may exert import...

    LIMITing tumours with an immunogenic lncRNA

    Overcoming immune resistance mechanisms in patients with cancer is critical for successful immunotherapy. A new study now identifies LIMIT as an immunogenic long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that intrinsically regu...

    Genome-wide identification and differential analysis of translational initiation

    Translation is principally regulated at the initiation stage. The development of the translation initiation (TI) sequencing (TI-seq) technique has enabled the global map** of TIs and revealed unanticipated c...
