MOTIVATION: Learning low-dimensional representations of single-cell transcriptomics has become instrumental to its downstream analysis. The state of the art is currently represented by neural network models, such as variational autoencoders, which us...
Computational analysis of RNA sequences constitutes a crucial step in the field of RNA biology. As in other domains of the life sciences, the incorporation of artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques into RNA sequence analysis has gain...
Ribonucleic acids (RNAs) play crucial roles in living organisms and some of them, such as bacterial ribosomes and precursor messenger RNA, are targets of small molecule drugs, whereas others, e.g. bacterial riboswitches or viral RNA motifs are consid...
The expanding field of epitranscriptomics might rival the epigenome in the diversity of biological processes impacted. In recent years, the development of new high-throughput experimental and computational techniques has been a key driving force in d...
Since the 1980s, dozens of computational methods have addressed the problem of predicting RNA secondary structure. Among them are those that follow standard optimization approaches and, more recently, machine learning (ML) algorithms. The former were...
Metal ion is an indispensable factor for the proper folding, structural stability and functioning of RNA molecules. However, it is very difficult for experimental methods to detect them in RNAs. With the increase of experimentally resolved RNA struct...
N6-methyladinosine (m6A) modification is the most abundant co-transcriptional modification in eukaryotic RNA and plays important roles in cellular regulation. Traditional high-throughput sequencing experiments used to explore functional mechanisms ar...
Messenger RNA-based therapeutics have shown tremendous potential, as demonstrated by the rapid development of messenger RNA based vaccines for COVID-19. Nevertheless, distribution of mRNA vaccines worldwide has been hampered by mRNA's inherent therma...
DNA and RNA sequencing technologies have revolutionized biology and biomedical sciences, sequencing full genomes and transcriptomes at very high speeds and reasonably low costs. RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) enables transcript identification and quantific...
