Human Virome01:26

Human Virome

25
The human body harbors a vast and diverse viral community known as the human virome. The virome includes bacteriophages that infect bacteria, and eukaryotic viruses that infect human cells. Transient dietary and environmental viruses also contribute to this dynamic ecosystem. Estimates suggest the human body may contain on the order of 10¹³ viral particles, though abundance varies widely by body site and detection method.Comprehensive characterization of the virome has become possible...

Nose and Nasal Cavity01:24

Nose and Nasal Cavity

15.0K
The nose is composed of an observable exterior segment (external nose) and an internal segment within the skull known as the nasal cavity (internal nose). The external nose, visible on the face, consists of a framework of bone and hyaline cartilage enveloped in skin and muscle and lined with a mucous membrane. This structure is supported by the frontal bone, nasal bones, and maxillary bone and is supplemented by a cartilaginous framework comprising the septal nasal cartilage, lateral nasal...

Taxonomy01:31

Taxonomy

92.7K
Taxonomy is the science of defining and naming groups of biological organisms based on shared characteristics. It uses a hierarchy of increasingly inclusive categories with Latin names. The smallest units of taxonomy, species and genus, are used to assign a formal, taxonomic name to each species in a system. This classification system, referred to as binomial nomenclature, was formalized by Carolus Linnaeus in the 18th century.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms-SNPs01:05

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms-SNPs

19.7K
A single nucleotide polymorphism or SNP is a single nucleotide variation at a specific genomic position in a large population. It is the most prevalent type of sequence variation found in the human genome. Point mutations that occur in more than 1% of the population qualify as SNPs. These are present once every 1000 nucleotides on an average in the human genome. Replacement of a purine with another purine (A/G) or a pyrimidine with another pyrimidine (C/T) is known as a transition. In contrast,...

The Hyoid Bone01:12

The Hyoid Bone

6.2K
The hyoid bone is a small U-shaped bone located in the upper neck at the level of the inferior mandible, with its tips pointing posteriorly. It does not directly articulate with any other bone in the body. The hyoid acts as the attachment site for the tongue, the larynx, and the pharynx. It is held in position by a series of small muscles attached from above or below. These muscles help to move the hyoid up/down or forward/back in coordination with movements of the tongue, larynx, and pharynx...

Genome Annotation and Assembly03:36

Genome Annotation and Assembly

21.4K
The genome refers to all of the genetic material in an organism. It can range from a few million base pairs in microbial cells to several billion base pairs in many eukaryotic organisms. Genome assembly refers to the process of taking the DNA sequencing data and putting it all back together in a correct order to create a close representation of the original genome. This is followed by the identification of functional elements on the newly assembled genome, a process called genome annotation.

Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Genomics
  • RNA Biology

Background:

  • Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are key non-coding RNAs regulating RNA processing, with emerging roles in gene silencing and splicing.
  • Existing catalogs of human snoRNAs are incomplete, hindering comprehensive understanding of their functions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To create an updated catalog of human snoRNA genes.
  • To characterize snoRNA expression plasticity across different cell types and conditions.
  • To refine the understanding of snoRNA-RNA interactions and modifications.

Main Methods:

  • Integrated data from databases, de novo prediction, and literature review for cataloging.
  • Analysis of ENCODE small RNA sequencing data to assess snoRNA expression.
  • Development and application of RimSeq, a high-throughput method for RNA 2'-O-methylation site identification.

Main Results:

  • A comprehensive catalog of over 750 curated human snoRNA and snoRNA-like genomic loci.
  • Identification of both constitutive and cell type-specific snoRNA expression patterns.
  • Significant perturbations in snoRNA expression profiles observed in malignant versus non-malignant tissues.
  • RimSeq successfully mapped modification sites for 83% of canonical snoRNAs, identifying only 76 orphan sequences.

Conclusions:

  • The updated snoRNA catalog provides a valuable resource for RNA biology research.
  • SnoRNA expression is highly dynamic and significantly altered in cancer, suggesting potential roles in disease.
  • Advanced methods like RimSeq enhance the study of RNA modifications and interactions, improving target prediction accuracy.
