Microbial genes, brain & behaviour - epigenetic regulation of the gut-brain axis.

TL;DR: It is suggested that gut‐microbial products can affect chromatin plasticity within their host's brain that in turn leads to changes in neuronal transcription and eventually alters host behaviour, and that the microbiota itself may be viewed as an epigenetic entity.

Long non-coding RNAs and complex diseases: from experimental results to computational models

TL;DR: Some state-of-the-art computational models are introduced, which could be effectively used to identify disease-related lncRNAs on a large scale and select the most promising disease- related lnc RNAs for experimental validation and discussed the future directions of developing computational models for lncRNA research.

Revealing the complex genetic architecture of obsessive-compulsive disorder using meta-analysis

Paul D. Arnold, +96 more
- 01 May 2018 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis from two independent OCD consortia, investigating a total of 2688 individuals of European ancestry with OCD and 7037 genomically matched controls, concludes that the largest single OCD genome-wide study to date represents a major integrative step in elucidating the genetic causes of OCD.

Mechanisms of Long Non-coding RNAs in Mammalian Nervous System Development, Plasticity, Disease, and Evolution

TL;DR: It is argued that lncRNAs may have played important roles in brain evolution, by virtue of their abundant sequence innovation in mammals and plausible mechanistic connections to the adaptive processes that occurred recently in the primate and human lineages.

From Discovery to Function: The Expanding Roles of Long NonCoding RNAs in Physiology and Disease

TL;DR: The current strategies and approaches that have been employed to identify and characterize lncRNAs are outlined, which have been instrumental in revealing their multifaceted roles ranging from cis- to trans-regulation of gene expression and from epigenetic modulation in the nucleus to posttranscriptional control in the cytoplasm.

RNA-Seq: a revolutionary tool for transcriptomics

TL;DR: The RNA-Seq approach to transcriptome profiling that uses deep-sequencing technologies provides a far more precise measurement of levels of transcripts and their isoforms than other methods.

Identification and analysis of functional elements in 1% of the human genome by the ENCODE pilot project

Ewan Birney, +320 more
- 14 Jun 2007 - 
TL;DR: Functional data from multiple, diverse experiments performed on a targeted 1% of the human genome as part of the pilot phase of the ENCODE Project are reported, providing convincing evidence that the genome is pervasively transcribed, such that the majority of its bases can be found in primary transcripts.

Landscape of transcription in human cells

Sarah Djebali, +87 more
- 06 Sep 2012 - 
TL;DR: Evidence that three-quarters of the human genome is capable of being transcribed is reported, as well as observations about the range and levels of expression, localization, processing fates, regulatory regions and modifications of almost all currently annotated and thousands of previously unannotated RNAs that prompt a redefinition of the concept of a gene.

Molecular Mechanisms of Long Noncoding RNAs

TL;DR: These archetypes of lncRNA function may be a useful framework to consider how lncRNAs acquire properties as biological signal transducers and hint at their possible origins in evolution.

The Transcriptional Landscape of the Mammalian Genome

Piero Carninci, +197 more
- 02 Sep 2005 - 
TL;DR: Detailed polling of transcription start and termination sites and analysis of previously unidentified full-length complementary DNAs derived from the mouse genome provide a comprehensive platform for the comparative analysis of mammalian transcriptional regulation in differentiation and development.
