Genetic engineering projects are rapidly growing in scale and complexity, driven by new tools to design and construct DNA. There is increasing concern that widened access to these technologies could lead to attempts to construct cells for malicious i...
Sexual assault evidence samples require the use of a specific process known as a differential digestion to separate sperm from nonsperm cells prior to DNA extraction. An automated differential digestion process was developed using a selective degrada...

Most past works for DNA-binding residue prediction did not consider the relationships between residues. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for DNA-binding residue prediction, referred to as EL_LSTM, which includes two main components. The fir...
From bacteria following simple chemical gradients to the brain distinguishing complex odour information, the ability to recognize molecular patterns is essential for biological organisms. This type of information-processing function has been implemen...
Functional genomics networks are widely used to identify unexpected pathway relationships in large genomic datasets. However, it is challenging to compare the signal-to-noise ratios of different networks and to identify the optimal network with which...
DNA-based nanorobots have been shown to sense and respond to molecular triggers, such as intracellular pH and cell surface receptors. A recent report describes DNA nanorobots as potential cancer therapeutic agents that can be programmed to trigger co...
A DNA-binding protein (DNA-BP) is a protein that can bind and interact with a DNA. Identification of DNA-BPs using experimental methods is expensive as well as time consuming. As such, fast and accurate computational methods are sought for predicting...
