In the recent past, there has been a resurgence of interest in Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) attributed to massive outbreaks of Chikungunya fever in the South-East Asia Region. This has reflected in substantial increase in submission of CHIKV genome sequences to NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information) database. Hereby we submit a database "CHIKVPRO" containing structural and functional annotation of Chikungunya virus proteins (25 strains) submitted in the NCBI repository. The CHIKV genome encodes for 9 proteins:4 non-structural and 5 structural. The CHIKVPRO database aims to provide the virology community with a single accession authoritative resource for CHIKV proteome- with reference to physiochemical and molecular properties, proteolytic cleavage sites, hydrophobicity, transmembrane prediction, and classification into functional families using SVMProt and other Expasy tools. AVAILABILITY: The database is freely available at http://www.chikvpro.info/ 相似文献

The automated sequence annotation pipeline (ASAP) is designed to ease routine investigation of new functional annotations on unknown sequences, such as expressed sequence tags (ESTs), through querying of web-accessible resources and maintenance of a local database. The system allows easy use of the output from one search as the input for a new search, as well as the filtering of results. The database is used to store formats and parameters and information for parsing data from web sites. The database permits easy updating of format information should a site modify the format of a query or of a returned web page. 相似文献

An extensive effort of the International Rice Genome Sequencing Project (IRGSP) has resulted in rapid accumulation of genome sequence, and >137 Mb has already been made available to the public domain as of August 2001. This requires a high-throughput annotation scheme to extract biologically useful and timely information from the sequence data on a regular basis. A new automated annotation system and database called Rice Genome Automated Annotation System (RiceGAAS) has been developed to execute a reliable and up-to-date analysis of the genome sequence as well as to store and retrieve the results of annotation. The system has the following functional features: (i) collection of rice genome sequences from GenBank; (ii) execution of gene prediction and homology search programs; (iii) integration of results from various analyses and automatic interpretation of coding regions; (iv) re-execution of analysis, integration and automatic interpretation with the latest entries in reference databases; (v) integrated visualization of the stored data using web-based graphical view. RiceGAAS also has a data submission mechanism that allows public users to perform fully automated annotation of their own sequences. The system can be accessed at http://RiceGAAS.dna.affrc.go.jp/. 相似文献

We describe here our experience in annotating the Drosophila melanogaster genome sequence, in the course of which we developed several new open-source software tools and a database schema to support large-scale genome annotation. We have developed these into an integrated and reusable software system for whole-genome annotation. The key contributions to overall annotation quality are the marshalling of high-quality sequences for alignments and the design of a system with an adaptable and expandable flexible architecture. 相似文献

Fucosyllactoses (FL), including 2′‐fucosyllactose (2′‐FL) and 3‐fucosyllactose (3‐FL), have garnered considerable interest for their value in newborn formula and pharmaceuticals. In this study, an engineered Escherichia coli was developed for high‐titer FL biosynthesis by introducing multi‐level metabolic engineering strategies, including (1) individual construction of the 2′/3‐FL‐producing strains through gene combination optimization of the GDP‐L‐fucose module; (2) screening of rate‐limiting enzymes (α‐1,2‐fucosyltransferase and α‐1,3‐fucosyltransferase); (3) analysis of critical intermediates and inactivation of competing pathways to redirect carbon fluxes to FL biosynthesis; (4) enhancement of the catalytic performance of rate‐limiting enzymes by the RBS screening, fusion peptides and multi‐copy gene cloning. The final strains EC49 and EM47 produced 9.36 g/L for 2′‐FL and 6.28 g/L for 3‐FL in shake flasks with a modified‐M9CA medium. Fed‐batch cultivations of the two strains generated 64.62 g/L of 2′‐FL and 40.68 g/L of 3‐FL in the 3‐L bioreactors, with yields of 0.65 mol 2′‐FL/mol lactose and 0.67 mol 3‐FL/mol lactose, respectively. This research provides a viable platform for other high‐value‐added compounds production in microbial cell factories.An engineered Escherichia coli was developed for high‐titer FL biosynthesis by introducing multi‐level metabolic engineering strategies. Combined with the optimization of metabolic pathways and the performance improvement of rate‐limiting enzymes, 64.62 g/L of 2 ''‐FL and 40.68 g/L of 3‐FL were finally obtained in the 3‐L bioreactors. 相似文献

The well-established inaccuracy of purely computational methods for annotating genome sequences necessitates an interactive tool to allow biological experts to refine these approximations by viewing and independently evaluating the data supporting each annotation. Apollo was developed to meet this need, enabling curators to inspect genome annotations closely and edit them. FlyBase biologists successfully used Apollo to annotate the Drosophila melanogaster genome and it is increasingly being used as a starting point for the development of customized annotation editing tools for other genome projects. 相似文献

Adenosine N6‐methylation (m6A) and N6,2′‐O‐dimethylation (m6Am) are regulatory modifications of eukaryotic mRNAs. m6Am formation is catalyzed by the methyl transferase phosphorylated CTD‐interacting factor 1 (PCIF1); however, the pathophysiological functions of this RNA modification and PCIF1 in cancers are unclear. Here, we show that PCIF1 expression is upregulated in colorectal cancer (CRC) and negatively correlates with patient survival. CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated depletion of PCIF1 in human CRC cells leads to loss of cell migration, invasion, and colony formation in vitro and loss of tumor growth in athymic mice. Pcif1 knockout in murine CRC cells inhibits tumor growth in immunocompetent mice and enhances the effects of anti‐PD‐1 antibody treatment by decreasing intratumoral TGF‐β levels and increasing intratumoral IFN‐γ, TNF‐α levels, and tumor‐infiltrating natural killer cells. We further show that PCIF1 modulates CRC growth and response to anti‐PD‐1 in a context‐dependent mechanism with PCIF1 directly targeting FOS, IFITM3, and STAT1 via m6Am modifications. PCIF1 stabilizes FOS mRNA, which in turn leads to FOS‐dependent TGF‐β regulation and tumor growth. While during immunotherapy, Pcif1‐Fos‐TGF‐β, as well as Pcif1‐Stat1/Ifitm3‐IFN‐γ axes, contributes to the resistance of anti‐PD‐1 therapy. Collectively, our findings reveal a role of PCIF1 in promoting CRC tumorigenesis and resistance to anti‐PD‐1 therapy, supporting that the combination of PCIF1 inhibition with anti‐PD‐1 treatment is a potential therapeutic strategy to enhance CRC response to immunotherapy. Finally, we developed a lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) and chemically modified small interfering RNAs (CMsiRNAs)‐based strategy to silence PCIF1 in vivo and found that this treatment significantly reduced tumor growth in mice. Our results therefore provide a proof‐of‐concept for tumor growth suppression using LNP‐CMsiRNA to silence target genes in cancer. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The annotation of genomes from next-generation sequencing platforms needs to be rapid, high-throughput, and fully integrated and automated. Although a few Web-based annotation services have recently become available, they may not be the best solution for researchers that need to annotate a large number of genomes, possibly including proprietary data, and store them locally for further analysis. To address this need, we developed a standalone software application, the Annotation of microbial Genome Sequences (AGeS) system, which incorporates publicly available and in-house-developed bioinformatics tools and databases, many of which are parallelized for high-throughput performance. METHODOLOGY: The AGeS system supports three main capabilities. The first is the storage of input contig sequences and the resulting annotation data in a central, customized database. The second is the annotation of microbial genomes using an integrated software pipeline, which first analyzes contigs from high-throughput sequencing by locating genomic regions that code for proteins, RNA, and other genomic elements through the Do-It-Yourself Annotation (DIYA) framework. The identified protein-coding regions are then functionally annotated using the in-house-developed Pipeline for Protein Annotation (PIPA). The third capability is the visualization of annotated sequences using GBrowse. To date, we have implemented these capabilities for bacterial genomes. AGeS was evaluated by comparing its genome annotations with those provided by three other methods. Our results indicate that the software tools integrated into AGeS provide annotations that are in general agreement with those provided by the compared methods. This is demonstrated by a >94% overlap in the number of identified genes, a significant number of identical annotated features, and a >90% agreement in enzyme function predictions. 相似文献

As the number of confirmed cases and resulting death toll of the COVID‐19 pandemic continue to increase around the globe ‐ especially with the emergence of new mutations of the SARS‐CoV‐2 virus in addition to the known alpha, beta, gamma, delta and omicron variants ‐ tremendous efforts continue to be dedicated to the development of interventive therapeutics to mitigate infective symptoms or post‐viral sequelae in individuals for which vaccines are not accessible, viable or effective in the prevention of illness. Many of these investigations aim to target the associated acute respiratory distress syndrome, or ARDS, which induces damage to lung epithelia and other physiologic systems and is associated with progression in severe cases. Recently, stem cell‐based therapies have demonstrated preliminary efficacy against ARDS based on a number of preclinical and preliminary human safety studies, and based on promising outcomes are now being evaluated in phase II clinical trials for ARDS. A number of candidate stem cell therapies have been found to exhibit low immunogenicity, coupled with inherent tropism to injury sites. In recent studies, these have demonstrated the ability to modulate suppression of pro‐inflammatory cytokine signals such as those characterizing COVID‐19‐associated ARDS. Present translational studies are aiming to optimize the safety, efficacy and delivery to fully validate stem cell‐based strategies targeting COVID‐19 associated ARDS for viable clinical application. 相似文献

Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth disease is the most common inherited peripheral neuropathy. Dominant mutations in the glycyl‐tRNA synthetase (GARS) gene cause peripheral nerve degeneration and lead to CMT disease type 2D. The underlying mechanisms of mutations in GARS (GARSCMT2D) in disease pathogenesis are not fully understood. In this study, we report that wild‐type GARS binds the NAD+‐dependent deacetylase SIRT2 and inhibits its deacetylation activity, resulting in the acetylated α‐tubulin, the major substrate of SIRT2. The catalytic domain of GARS tightly interacts with SIRT2, which is the most CMT2D mutation localization. However, CMT2D mutations in GARS cannot inhibit SIRT2 deacetylation, which leads to a decrease of acetylated α‐tubulin. Genetic reduction of SIRT2 in the Drosophila model rescues the GARS‐induced axonal CMT neuropathy and extends the life span. Our findings demonstrate the pathogenic role of SIRT2‐dependent α‐tubulin deacetylation in mutant GARS‐induced neuropathies and provide new perspectives for targeting SIRT2 as a potential therapy against hereditary axonopathies. 相似文献

In the supporting information of the article, the authors noticed that there was an error in Movie EV1. The right panel (SARS‐CoV‐2 + IFITM1) showed the same PI channel data (red) as the middle panel (SARS‐CoV‐2). This mistake occurred during the assembly of the merged movie file and does not change the interpretation of the data. A corrected version of the movie is herewith updated. 相似文献

Although miR‐148a‐3p has been reported to function as a tumour suppressor in various cancers, the molecular mechanism of miR‐148a‐3p in regulating epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) and stemness properties of pancreatic cancer (PC) cells remains to be elucidated. In the present study, we demonstrated that miR‐148a‐3p expression was remarkably down‐regulated in PC tissues and cell lines. Moreover, low expression of miR‐148a‐3p was associated with poorer overall survival (OS) in patients with PC. In vitro, gain‐of‐function and loss‐of‐function experiments showed that miR‐148a‐3p suppressed EMT and stemness properties as well as the proliferation, migration and invasion of PC cells. A dual‐luciferase reporter assay demonstrated that Wnt1 was a direct target of miR‐148a‐3p, and its expression was inversely associated with miR‐148a‐3p in PC tissues. Furthermore, miR‐148a‐3p suppressed the Wnt/β‐catenin pathway via down‐regulation of Wnt1. The effects of ectopic miR‐148a‐3p were rescued by Wnt1 overexpression. These biological functions of miR‐148a‐3p in PC were also confirmed in a nude mouse xenograft model. Taken together, these findings suggest that miR‐148a‐3p suppresses PC cell proliferation, invasion, EMT and stemness properties via inhibiting Wnt1‐mediated Wnt/β‐catenin pathway and could be a potential prognostic biomarker as well as a therapeutic target in PC. 相似文献

Vitamin B6 is necessary to maintain normal metabolism and immune response, especially the anti‐inflammatory immune response. However, the exact mechanism by which vitamin B6 plays the anti‐inflammatory role is still unclear. Here, we report a novel mechanism of preventing excessive inflammation by vitamin B6 via reduction in the accumulation of sphingosine‐1‐phosphate (S1P) in a S1P lyase (SPL)‐dependent manner in macrophages. Vitamin B6 supplementation decreased the expression of pro‐inflammatory cytokines by suppressing nuclear factor‐κB and mitogen‐activated protein kinases signalling pathways. Furthermore, vitamin B6–reduced accumulation of S1P by promoting SPL activity. The anti‐inflammatory effects of vitamin B6 were inhibited by S1P supplementation or SPL deficiency. Importantly, vitamin B6 supplementation protected mice from lethal endotoxic shock and attenuated experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis progression. Collectively, these findings revealed a novel anti‐inflammatory mechanism of vitamin B6 and provided guidance on its clinical use. 相似文献

The challenge for -omics research is to tackle the problem of fragmentation of knowledge by integrating several sources of heterogeneous information into a coherent entity. It is widely recognized that successful data integration is one of the keys to improve productivity for stored data. Through proper data integration tools and algorithms, researchers may correlate relationships that enable them to make better and faster decisions. The need for data integration is essential for present ‐omics community, because ‐omics data is currently spread world wide in wide variety of formats. These formats can be integrated and migrated across platforms through different techniques and one of the important techniques often used is XML. XML is used to provide a document markup language that is easier to learn, retrieve, store and transmit. It is semantically richer than HTML. Here, we describe bio warehousing, database federation, controlled vocabularies and highlighting the XML application to store, migrate and validate -omics data. 相似文献

BackgroundIschaemic preconditioning elicited by brief periods of coronary occlusion and reperfusion protects the heart from a subsequent prolonged ischaemic insult. Here, we test the hypothesis that short‐term non‐ischaemic stimulation of hypertrophy renders the heart resistant to subsequent ischaemic injury.Methods and ResultsTransient transverse aortic constriction (TAC) was performed for 3 days in mice and then withdrawn for 4 days by aortic debanding, followed by subsequent exposure to myocardial ischaemia‐reperfusion (I/R) injury. Following I/R injury, myocardial infarct size and apoptosis were significantly decreased, and cardiac dysfunction was markedly improved in the TAC preconditioning group compared with the control group. Mechanistically, TAC preconditioning markedly suppressed I/R‐induced autophagy and preserved autophagic flux by deacetylating SOD2 via a SIRT3‐dependent mechanism. Moreover, treatment with an adenovirus encoding SIRT3 partially mimicked the effects of hypertrophic preconditioning, whereas genetic ablation of SIRT3 in mice blocked the cardioprotective effects of hypertrophic preconditioning. Furthermore, in vivo lentiviral‐mediated knockdown of Beclin 1 in the myocardium ameliorated the I/R‐induced impairment of autophagic flux and was associated with a reduction in cell death, whereas treatment with a lentivirus encoding Beclin 1 abolished the cardioprotective effect of TAC preconditioning.ConclusionsThe present study identifies TAC preconditioning as a novel strategy for induction of an endogenous self‐defensive and cardioprotective mechanism against cardiac injury. Specifically, TAC preconditioning reduced myocardial autophagic cell death in a SIRT3/SOD2 pathway‐dependent manner. 相似文献
