MiR-204-5p overexpression abrogates Dacarbazine-induced senescence in melanoma cells in vivo MiR-204-5p abrogates senescence.

Cancer cell drug resistance hinders significantly therapeutic modalities in oncology. Dacarbazine is chemotherapeutic agent traditionally used for melanoma treatment although it's effectiveness insufficient. In the present study we performed NGS-based transcriptomic profiling of B16 melanoma tumors after Dacarbazine treatment in vivo.

Chromosome-scale Elaeis guineensis and E. oleifera assemblies: comparative genomics of oil palm and other Arecaceae.

Elaeis guineensis and E. oleifera are the two species of oil palm. E.

Transcriptomic Data Meta-Analysis Sheds Light on High Light Response in L.

The availability and intensity of sunlight are among the major factors of growth, development and metabolism in plants. However, excessive illumination disrupts the electronic balance of photosystems and leads to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species in chloroplasts, further mediating several regulatory mechanisms at the subcellular, genetic, and molecular levels. We carried out a comprehensive bioinformatic analysis that aimed to identify genetic systems and candidate transcription factors involved in the response to high light stress in L.

Genome-Wide Prediction of Transcription Start Sites in Conifers.

The identification of promoters is an essential step in the genome annotation process, providing a framework for gene regulatory networks and their role in transcription regulation. Despite considerable advances in the high-throughput determination of transcription start sites (TSSs) and transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs), experimental methods are still time-consuming and expensive. Instead, several computational approaches have been developed to provide fast and reliable means for predicting the location of TSSs and regulatory motifs on a genome-wide scale.

Siberian larch (Larix sibirica Ledeb.) mitochondrial genome assembled using both short and long nucleotide sequence reads is currently the largest known mitogenome.

Background: Plant mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) can be structurally complex while their size can vary from ~ 222 Kbp in Brassica napus to 11.3 Mbp in Silene conica. To date, in comparison with the number of plant species, only a few plant mitogenomes have been sequenced and released, particularly for conifers (the Pinaceae family).

Siberian larch (Larix sibirica Ledeb.) chloroplast genome and development of polymorphic chloroplast markers.

Background: The main objectives of this study were sequencing, assembling, and annotation of chloroplast genome of one of the main Siberian boreal forest tree conifer species Siberian larch (Larix sibirica Ledeb.) and detection of polymorphic genetic markers - microsatellite loci or simple sequence repeats (SSRs) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).

Results: We used the data of the whole genome sequencing of three Siberian larch trees from different regions - the Urals, Krasnoyarsk, and Khakassia, respectively.
