BACKGROUND: RNA-RNA interactions are key to a wide range of cellular functions. The detection of potential interactions helps to understand the underlying processes. However, potential interactions identified via in silico or experimental high-throug...
2'-O-methylation (2OM) is the most common post-transcriptional modification of RNA. It plays a crucial role in RNA splicing, RNA stability and innate immunity. Despite advances in high-throughput detection, the chemical stability of 2OM makes it diff...
The interactions between nucleic acids and proteins are important in diverse biological processes. The high-quality prediction of nucleic-acid-binding sites continues to pose a significant challenge. Presently, the predictive efficacy of sequence-bas...
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...
