Efficient extraction of knowledge from biological data requires the development of structured vocabularies to unambiguously define biological terms. This paper proposes descriptions and definitions to disambiguate the term 'single-exon gene'. Eukaryo...
The rapid and widespread adoption of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) proteins in genetically modified (GM) crops has raised concerns about the impact of GM crops on environment and food safety. A sensitive and specific method for detecting Bt proteins in...
BACKGROUND: Investigating and understanding drug-drug interactions (DDIs) is important in improving the effectiveness of clinical care. DDIs can occur when two or more drugs are administered together. Experimentally based DDI detection methods requir...
Alternative splicing acts on transcripts from almost all human multi-exon genes. Notwithstanding its ubiquity, fundamental ramifications of splicing on protein expression remain unresolved. The number and identity of spliced transcripts that form sta...
Elucidating the effects of naturally occurring genetic variation is one of the major challenges for personalized health and personalized medicine. Here, we introduce SNAP2, a novel neural network based classifier that improves over the state-of-the-a...
Alternative splicing is a crucial cellular process in eukaryotes, enabling the generation of multiple protein isoforms with diverse functions from a single gene. To better understand the impact of alternative splicing on protein structures, protein-p...
Long-read sequencing technologies can capture entire RNA transcripts in a single sequencing read, reducing the ambiguity in constructing and quantifying transcript models in comparison to more common and earlier methods, such as short-read sequencing...

Proteomics, the study of proteins within biological systems, has seen remarkable advancements in recent years, with protein isoform detection emerging as one of the next major frontiers. One of the primary challenges is achieving the necessary peptid...
MOTIVATION: A single gene may yield several isoforms with different functions through alternative splicing. Continuous efforts are devoted to developing machine-learning methods to predict isoform functions. However, existing methods do not consider ...
