Genome-wide SNP identification by high-throughput sequencing and selective mapping allows sequence assembly positioning using a framework genetic linkage map
(BioMed Central, 2010)
Determining the position and order of contigs and scaffolds from a genome assembly within an organism’s genome remains a technical challenge in a majority of sequencing projects. In order to exploit contemporary technologies ...
Gonad differentiation in zebrafish is regulated by the canonical Wnt signalling pathway
(Society for the Study of Reproduction, 2014)
Zebrafish males undergo a ‘‘juvenile ovary-to-testis’’ gonadal transformation process. Several genes, including nuclear receptor subfamily 5, group A (nr5a) and anti-Mu¨ llerian hormone (amh), and pathways such as Tp53-mediated ...
DAMPD: a manually curated antimicrobial peptide database
(Oxford University Press, 2012)
The demand for antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) is rising because of the increased occurrence of pathogens that are tolerant or resistant to conventional antibiotics. Since naturally occurring AMPs could serve as templates ...
Information security at South African universities-Implications for biomedical research
(Oxford University Press, 2020)
In South Africa, a similar regulation strategy to
the European Union General Data Protection
Regulation, called the Protection of Personal
Information Act (No 4 of 2013) (POPIA), will be
implemented, with a view to ...
Prediction of human-Bacillus anthracis protein–protein interactions using multi-layer neural network
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
Triplet amino acids have successfully been included in feature selection to predict
human-HPV protein-protein interactions (PPI). The utility of supervised learning methods is
curtailed due to experimental data not being ...
Computational characterization of iron metabolism in the tsetse disease vector, glossina morsitans: Ire stem-loops
(BMC, 2016)
Iron metabolism and regulation is an indispensable part of species survival, most importantly for
blood feeding insects. Iron regulatory proteins are central regulators of iron homeostasis, whose binding to iron
response ...
