We are glad to share with you our second Journal Club and to highlight some of the most interesting papers published recently. [...]
A pressing need for new chronic kidney disease (CKD) biomarkers persists. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are emerging as a novel class of disease biomarkers in body fluids, but mechanisms conferring their stability in urine have not been fully elucidated. Here w...
A computational screen for novel small nucleolar RNAs in Drosophila melanogaster uncovered 15 novel snoRNAs and snoRNA-like long non-coding RNAs. In contrast to earlier surverys, the novel sequences are mostly poorly conserved and originate from unus...
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to regulate gene expression, chromatin domains and chromosome stability in eukaryotic cells. Recent observations have reported the existence of telomeric repeats containing long ncRNAs – TERRA in mammali...
Currently, the discovery of new small ncRNAs requires high throughput methods even in the case of focused research on the regulation of specific genes or set of genes. We propose herein a simple, rapid, efficient, and cost effective method to clone a...
