Viruses are ubiquitous in nature and exist in a variety of habitats. The advancement in sequencing technologies has revolutionized the understanding of viral biodiversity associated with plant diseases. Deep sequencing combined with metagenomics is a powerful approach that has proven to be revolutionary in the last decade and involves the direct analysis of viral genomes present in a diseased tissue sample. This protocol describes the details of RNA extraction and purification from wild rice plant and their yield, RNA purity, and integrity assessment. As a final step, bioinformatics data analysis including demultiplexing, quality control, de novo transcriptome assembly, taxonomic allocation and read mapping following Illumina HiSeq small and total RNA sequencing are described. Furthermore, the total RNAs extraction protocol and an additional ribosomal rRNAs depletion step which are significantly important for viral genomes construction are provided.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is heterogeneous and involves structural changes in the whole joint, such as cartilage, meniscus/labrum, ligaments, and tendons, mainly with short T2 relaxation times. Detecting OA before the onset of irreversible changes is crucial for early proactive management and limit growing disease burden. The more recent advanced quantitative imaging techniques and deep learning (DL) algorithms in musculoskeletal imaging have shown great potential for visualizing "pre-OA.

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are small peptides that play an important role in disease defense. As the problem of pathogen resistance caused by the misuse of antibiotics intensifies, the identification of AMPs as alternatives to antibiotics has become a hot topic. Accurately identifying AMPs using computational methods has been a key issue in the field of bioinformatics in recent years.

Identifying drug-target binding affinity (DTA) plays a critical role in early-stage drug discovery. Despite the availability of various existing methods, there are still two limitations. Firstly, sequence-based methods often extract features from fixed length protein sequences, requiring truncation or padding, which can result in information loss or the introduction of unwanted noise.

Purpose: To develop a deep learning (DL) model based on primary tumor tissue to predict the lymph node metastasis (LNM) status of muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), while validating the prognostic value of the predicted aiN score in MIBC patients.

Methods: A total of 323 patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) were used as the training and internal validation set, with image features extracted using a visual encoder called UNI. We investigated the ability to predict LNM status while assessing the prognostic value of aiN score.
