Transcriptome-wide profiles of circular RNA and RNA-binding protein interactions reveal effects on circular RNA biogenesis and cancer pathway expression

Abstract Background Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are stable, often highly expressed RNA transcripts with potential to modulate other regulatory RNAs.A few circRNAs have been shown to bind RNA-binding proteins (RBPs); however, little is known about the prevalence and distribution of these interactions in different biological contexts.Methods We conduct

Assessment of chromium, nickel, cobalt and zinc in edible flesh of two tilapia fish species found in Bodo River, Rivers State, Nigeria

Oil exploration, exploitation, oil well fires and pipe-line vandalism are often reported to lead to high levels of pollution of the environment affecting water, land and air.As a result, the safety of specific fish species for human consumption is constantly in doubt and needs assessment.Guinean tilapia (Tilapia guineensis) and Blackchin tilapia (S

Ciliate diversity and distribution patterns in the sediments of a seamount and adjacent abyssal plains in the tropical Western Pacific Ocean

Abstract Background Benthic ciliates and the environmental factors shaping their distribution are far from being completely understood.Likewise, deep-sea systems are amongst the least understood ecosystems on Earth.In this study, using high-throughput DNA sequencing, we investigated the diversity and community composition of benthic ciliates in dif
