RNA-seq03:21

RNA-seq

9.9K
RNA sequencing, or RNA-Seq, is a high-throughput sequencing technology used to study the transcriptome of a cell. Transcriptomics helps to interpret the functional elements of a genome and identify the molecular constituents of an organism. Additionally, it also helps in understanding the development of an organism and the occurrence of diseases. 
Before the discovery of RNA-seq, microarray-based methods and Sanger sequencing were used for transcriptome analysis. However, while...

Ribosome Profiling02:24

Ribosome Profiling

3.5K
Ribosome profiling or ribo-sequencing is a deep sequencing technique that produces a snapshot of active translation in a cell. It selectively sequences the mRNAs protected by ribosomes to get an insight into a cell’s translation landscape at any given point in time.
Applications of ribosome profiling
Ribosome profiling has many applications, including in vivo monitoring of translation inside a particular organ or tissue type and quantifying new protein synthesis levels.
The technique...

Area of Science:

  • Genomics and Molecular Biology
  • Bacterial Pathogenesis
  • Bioinformatics and Computational Biology

Background:

  • Small non-coding RNAs (sRNAs) are crucial regulators of bacterial virulence and survival post-infection.
  • Identifying and mapping sRNA expression genome-wide, especially *de novo*, is challenging with existing high-throughput sequencing methods.
  • Current methodologies often require multiple dependencies and lack targeted *de novo* sRNA identification approaches.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel, efficient, and targeted computational framework for the *de novo* identification of bacterial sRNAs.
  • To create a user-friendly tool based on the Isolation Forest algorithm for sRNA discovery from sRNA-seq data.
  • To comprehensively map and characterize sRNAs and small proteins in *Mycobacterium tuberculosis*.

Main Methods:

  • Development of an Isolation Forest algorithm-based computational method for *de novo* sRNA identification.
  • Implementation of the method into a publicly available tool: Prediction Of sRNAs using Isolation Forest (PoSIF).
  • Application of the PoSIF tool to analyze bacterial sRNA-seq data, specifically from *Mycobacterium tuberculosis*.

Main Results:

  • Successfully predicted 1120 small non-coding RNAs (sRNAs) and 46 small proteins in *Mycobacterium tuberculosis*.
  • Demonstrated the capability of the PoSIF tool for *de novo* identification of sRNAs from sequencing data.
  • Identified novel sRNAs with context-dependent expression, suggesting roles in stress response mechanisms.

Conclusions:

  • The developed Isolation Forest-based method and PoSIF tool provide an effective approach for *de novo* bacterial sRNA identification.
  • This study significantly expands the known repertoire of sRNAs and small proteins in *Mycobacterium tuberculosis*.
  • The findings highlight the potential importance of novel sRNAs in bacterial adaptation and stress response.
