isomiR2Function

Submitted by ChenLiang on Sun, 09/10/2017 - 17:11

In plants, post transcriptional regulation by non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), in particular miRNAs (19-24 nt) has been involved in modulating the transcriptional landscape in developmental, biotic and abiotic interactions. In past few years, considerable focus has been leveraged on delineating and deciphering the role of miRNAs and their canonical isomiRs in plants. However, proper classification and accurate prediction of plant isomiRs taking into account the relative features by which we define isomiRs, such as templated or non-templated is still lacking.

GO-Elite

Submitted by ChenLiang on Fri, 09/02/2016 - 21:59

We introduce GO-Elite, a flexible and powerful pathway analysis tool for a wide array of species, identifiers (IDs), pathways, ontologies and gene sets. In addition to the Gene Ontology (GO), GO-Elite allows the user to perform over-representation analysis on any structured ontology annotations, pathway database or biological IDs (e.g. gene, protein or metabolite). GO-Elite exploits the structured nature of biological ontologies to report a minimal set of non-overlapping terms. The results can be visualized on WikiPathways or as networks.

iBeetle-Base

Submitted by ChenLiang on Fri, 09/02/2016 - 21:59

The iBeetle-Base (http://ibeetle-base.uni-goettingen.de) makes available annotations of RNAi phenotypes, which were gathered in a large scale RNAi screen in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum (iBeetle screen). In addition, it provides access to sequence information and links for all Tribolium castaneum genes.

plantMirP

Submitted by ChenLiang on Fri, 09/02/2016 - 21:59

MicroRNAs are a predominant type of small non-coding RNAs approximately 21 nucleotides in length that play an essential role at the post-transcriptional level by either RNA degradation, translational repression or both through an RNA-induced silencing complex. Identification of these molecules can aid the dissecting of their regulatory functions. The secondary structures of plant pre-miRNAs are much more complex than those of animal pre-miRNAs. In contrast to prediction tools for animal pre-miRNAs, much less effort has been contributed to plant pre-miRNAs.

AmiRNA Designer

Submitted by ChenLiang on Fri, 09/02/2016 - 21:59

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that have been found in most of the eukaryotic organisms. They are involved in the regulation of gene expression at the post-transcriptional level in a sequence specific manner. MiRNAs are produced from their precursors by Dicer-dependent small RNA biogenesis pathway. Involvement of miRNAs in a wide range of biological processes makes them excellent candidates for studying gene function or for therapeutic applications. For this purpose, different RNA-based gene silencing techniques have been developed.

miRCarta

Submitted by ChenLiang on Tue, 01/09/2018 - 18:46

The continuous increase of available biological data as consequence of modern high-throughput technologies poses new challenges for analysis techniques and database applications. Especially for miRNAs, one class of small non-coding RNAs, many algorithms have been developed to predict new candidates from next-generation sequencing data. While the amount of publications describing novel miRNA candidates keeps steadily increasing, the current gold standard database for miRNAs - miRBase - has not been updated since June 2014.

ARTS

Submitted by ChenLiang on Fri, 09/02/2016 - 21:59

A fast growing number of non-coding RNAs have recently been discovered to play essential roles in many cellular processes. Similar to proteins, understanding the functions of these active RNAs requires methods for analyzing their tertiary structures. However, in contrast to the wide range of structure-based approaches available for proteins, there is still a lack of methods for studying RNA structures.

AmphiEST

Submitted by ChenLiang on Fri, 09/02/2016 - 21:59

Amphioxus has been an important model for understanding the evolution of chordates and origin of vertebrates. Comparative transcriptome analysis can facilitate delineation of gene expression patterns of amphioxus at different developmental stages. So far, however, few such analyses have been performed. Here we have systematically compared amphioxus ESTs from five developmental stages. For the egg, gastrula, neurula, larva and adult stages, amphioxus ESTs were assembled, respectively, into 3364, 3230, 10,299, 4052 and 3866 contigs, and 193, 183, 933, 178 and 151 singlets.
