Journal ArticleDOI

StringTie enables improved reconstruction of a transcriptome from RNA-seq reads

TL;DR: StringTie, a computational method that applies a network flow algorithm originally developed in optimization theory, together with optional de novo assembly, to assemble these complex data sets into transcripts produces more complete and accurate reconstructions of genes and better estimates of expression levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

c-Myc-regulated microRNAs modulate E2F1 expression.

TL;DR: A mechanism through which c-Myc simultaneously activates E2F1 transcription and limits its translation, allowing a tightly controlled proliferative signal is revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional Classification and Experimental Dissection of Long Noncoding RNAs

TL;DR: This review categorizes lncRNA loci into those that regulate gene expression in cis versus those that perform functions in trans and proposes an experimental approach to dissect lncRNAs activity based on these classifications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transactivation of miR-34a by p53 broadly influences gene expression and promotes apoptosis

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that microRNAs (miRNAs) are important components of the p53 transcriptional network and miR-34a-responsive genes are highly enriched for those that regulate cell-cycle progression, apoptosis, DNA repair, and angiogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

c-Myc suppression of miR-23a/b enhances mitochondrial glutaminase expression and glutamine metabolism.

TL;DR: In this paper, the c-Myc (hereafter referred to as Myc) oncogenic transcription factor, which is known to regulate microRNAs and stimulate cell proliferation, transcriptionally represses miR-23a and miR23b, resulting in greater expression of their target protein, mitochondrial glutaminase, in human P-493 B lymphoma cells and PC3 prostate cancer cells.
