Folate cycle enzyme MTHFD1L confers metabolic advantages in hepatocellular carcinoma

TL;DR: This study found that an enzyme in the folate cycle, methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase 1–like (MTHFD1L), plays an essential role in support of cancer growth, and determined that MTHFD 1L is transcriptionally activated by NRF2, a master regulator of redox homeostasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multi-functional genome-wide CRISPR system for high throughput genotype-phenotype mapping

TL;DR: A tri-functional CRISPR system that can engineer complex synergistic interactions in a genome-wide manner is presented and represents a powerful synthetic biology tool to investigate fundamental biological questions as well as engineer complex phenotypes for biotechnological applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrogenetic cellular insulin release for real-time glycemic control in type 1 diabetic mice

TL;DR: A bioelectronic interface that uses wireless-powered electrical stimulation of cells to promote the release of insulin is described, and electrosensitive human β cells are engineered to respond to membrane depolarization by rapidly releasing insulin from intracellular storage vesicles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Emerging roles of long non-coding RNAs in plant response to biotic and abiotic stresses.

TL;DR: The present knowledge of long non-coding RNAs is summarized, the recent advances in understanding regulatory functions of lncRNAs are reviewed, and the emerging roles of lNCRNAs in regulating immune responses in plants are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Current and Future Treatment Strategies for Rhabdomyosarcoma.

TL;DR: The current frontline multi-modality therapy for RMS is summarized according to pediatric protocols, emerging targeted therapies and immunotherapies identified by preclinical studies are highlighted, and early clinical trial data and the implications they hold for future clinical development are discussed.

Fast gapped-read alignment with Bowtie 2

TL;DR: Bowtie 2 combines the strengths of the full-text minute index with the flexibility and speed of hardware-accelerated dynamic programming algorithms to achieve a combination of high speed, sensitivity and accuracy.
Journal ArticleDOI

RSEM: accurate transcript quantification from RNA-Seq data with or without a reference genome

TL;DR: It is shown that accurate gene-level abundance estimates are best obtained with large numbers of short single-end reads, and estimates of the relative frequencies of isoforms within single genes may be improved through the use of paired- end reads, depending on the number of possible splice forms for each gene.
Journal ArticleDOI

A programmable dual-RNA-guided DNA endonuclease in adaptive bacterial immunity.

TL;DR: This study reveals a family of endonucleases that use dual-RNAs for site-specific DNA cleavage and highlights the potential to exploit the system for RNA-programmable genome editing.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia enables predictive modelling of anticancer drug sensitivity

TL;DR: The results indicate that large, annotated cell-line collections may help to enable preclinical stratification schemata for anticancer agents and the generation of genetic predictions of drug response in the preclinical setting and their incorporation into cancer clinical trial design could speed the emergence of ‘personalized’ therapeutic regimens.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular signatures database (MSigDB) 3.0

TL;DR: A new version of the database, MSigDB 3.0, is reported, with over 6700 gene sets, a complete revision of the collection of canonical pathways and experimental signatures from publications, enhanced annotations and upgrades to the web site.
