LncRNAs in neuropsychiatric disorders and computational insights for their prediction
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are 200 nucleotide extended transcripts that do not encode proteins or possess limited coding ability. LncRNAs...

Epigenetic Control of Diatom Genomes: An Overview from In Silico Characterization to Functional Studies
Epigenetics and its role in genome regulation is one of the most exciting areas of modern science. After a brief history of epigenetics and an... -
Transcription regulation by long non-coding RNAs: mechanisms and disease relevance
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) outnumber protein-coding transcripts, but their functions remain largely unknown. In this Review, we discuss the...

Regulation der Genexpression bei Eukaryoten
Im Vergleich zur Genexpression bei Prokaryoten verläuft die eukaryotische Regulation erheblich feiner und abgestufter. Globingene veranschaulichen... -
The L1-dependant and Pol III transcribed Alu retrotransposon, from its discovery to innate immunity
The 300 bp dimeric repeats digestible by Alu I were discovered in 1979. Since then, Alu were involved in the most fundamental epigenetic mechanisms,...

Fate-Map** Macrophages: From Ontogeny to Functions
Macrophages are vital to the physiological function of most tissues, but also contribute to disease through a multitude of pathological roles. They... -
DAMEfinder: a method to detect differential allele-specific methylation
BackgroundDNA methylation is a highly studied epigenetic signature that is associated with regulation of gene expression, whereby genes with high...
