The interactions between ncRNAs and proteins are critical for regulating various cellular processes in organisms, such as gene expression regulations. However, due to limitations, including financial and material consumptions in recent experimental…

Electricity production in the French overseas territories largely depends on fossil fuels. The context of the environmentalization of energy policies, joined by the current debates about blue growth, encourages the islands to present themselves as…

The goal of syndromic surveillance is the earlier detection of epidemics, allowing a timelier public health response than is possible using traditional surveillance methods. Syndromic surveillance application for public health purposes has changed…

Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) was detected in humans in 2012. Since then, sporadic outbreaks with primary transmission through dromedary camels to humans and outbreaks in healthcare settings have shown that MERS-CoV…

For the ubiquitous phenomenon of strand symmetry, it has been shown that it may persist for higher-order oligonucleotides. However, there is no consensus about to what extent (order of oligonucleotides or length of words) strand symmetry still…

The economic burden of the incidence of influenza and ARI requires careful study, since annually about 15% of the world's population suffers from these diseases. In addition, the flu can cause complications that are dangerous to human life and…

Abstract * Background In the search for therapeutic peptides for disease treatments, many efforts have been made to identify various functional peptides from large numbers of peptide sequence databases. In this paper, we propose an effective…

Coronaviruses are enveloped viruses with a single-strand “+” RNA, its genome size varying from 25 to 32 thousands of nucleotides. They cause respiratory and intestinal diseases in animals and humans. The review contains the data on human infection…

Abstract Background High throughput sequencing has spurred the development of metagenomics, which involves the direct analysis of microbial communities in various environments such as soil, ocean water, and the human body. Many existing methods based…

Abstract Background De novo assembly of RNA-seq data allows the study of transcriptome in absence of a reference genome either if data is obtained from a single organism or from a mixed sample as in metatranscriptomics studies. Given the high number…
