RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) provide a critical post-transcriptional regulatory layer in determining RNA fate. Currently, UV crosslinking followed by oligo-dT pull-down is the gold standard in identifying the RBP repertoire of poly-adenylated RNAs, but such method is ineffective in capturing RBPs that recognize double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs). Here, we utilize anti-dsRNA K1 antibody immunoprecipitation followed by quantitative mass spectrometry to comprehensively identify RBPs bound to cellular dsRNAs without external stimulus.

This study investigates the transcriptome-level alterations that influence production traits and early fattening stage myogenesis in Hanwoo cattle, specifically focusing on the highly prized Longissimus dorsi (LD) and Psoas major (PM) skeletal muscles, which hold significant commercial value. We conducted RNA sequencing analysis on LD and PM muscles from 14 Hanwoo steers ( = 7, each group) at the age of 10 months, all fed the same diet. Our results unveiled a total of 374 and 206 up-regulated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in LD and PM muscles, respectively, with statistical significance ( < 0.

The intestinal microbiome plays a crucial role in animal health and growth by interacting with the host, inhibiting pathogenic microbial colonization, and regulating immunity. This study investigated dynamic changes in the fecal microbial composition of piglets from birth through weaning and the relationship between the piglet fecal microbiome and sows. Feces, skin, neonatal oral cavity, and vaginal samples were collected from eight sows and sixty-three piglets, and 16S genome sequencing was performed.

Skin color in chickens is an economically important trait that determines the first impression of a consumer toward a broiler and can ultimately affect consumer choice in the market. Therefore, identification of genomic regions associated with skin color is crucial for increasing the sales value of chickens. Although previous studies have attempted to reveal the genetic markers associated with the skin coloration in chickens, most were limited to investigations of candidate genes, such as melanin-related genes, and focused on case/control studies based on a single or small population.

Lymphoma is one of the most prevalent hematological cancers, accounting for 15-20 % of new cancer diagnoses in dogs. Therefore, this study aims to explore the important genes and pathways involved in canine lymphoma progression and understand the underlying molecular mechanisms using RNA sequencing. In this study, RNAs acquired from seven pairs of lymphoma and non-lymphoma blood samples were sequenced from different breeds of dogs.
