Journal ArticleDOI

Practical Computational Reproducibility in the Life Sciences.

TL;DR: This suite combines three well-tested components-a system for building highly portable packages of bioinformatics software, containerization and virtualization technologies for isolating reusable execution environments for these packages, and workflow systems that automatically orchestrate the composition of these packages for entire pipelines-to achieve an unprecedented level of computational reproducibility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Paramutation in Drosophila Requires Both Nuclear and Cytoplasmic Actors of the piRNA Pathway and Induces Cis-spreading of piRNA Production.

TL;DR: It is shown that, in Drosophila melanogaster, a cluster of tandemly repeated P-lacZ-white transgenes can be activated for piRNA production by maternal inheritance of a cytoplasm containing homologous piRNAs, and that maternally inherited transgenic small RNAs can also impact transgene expression in the soma.
Book ChapterDOI

Identification of viral suppressors of RNAi by a reporter assay in Drosophila S2 cell culture.

TL;DR: This chapter describes a detailed protocol for an RNAi reporter assay in Drosophila S2 cells for the identification of VSR activity and describes the implications of this finding for antiviral immunity in insects.
