The Atlantic herring is a model species for exploring the genetic basis ecological adaptation, due to its huge population size and extremely low differentiation at selectively neutral loci. However, such studies have so far been hampered because of highly fragmented genome assembly. Here, we deliver chromosome-level assembly based on hybrid approach combining de novo Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) with Hi-C-supported scaffolding. comprises 26 autosomes sizes ranging from 12.4 33.1 Mb total...

Kcnq1ot1 is a long noncoding ribonucleic acid (RNA; lncRNA) that participates in the regulation of genes within Kcnq1 imprinting domain. Using novel RNA-guided chromatin conformation capture method, we demonstrate 5′ region RNA orchestrates long-range intrachromosomal loop between KvDMR1 and promoter required for maintenance imprinting. PRC2 (polycomb repressive complex 2), which allelic repression Kcnq1, also recruited by via EZH2. Targeted suppression lncRNA prevents creation this causes...

Tumor exosomes with molecular marker-proteins inherited from their parent cells have emerged as a promising liquid biopsy biomarker for cancer diagnosis. However, facile, robust, and sensitive detection of exosomal proteins remains challenging. Therefore, nanozyme sensor array is constructed by using aptamer-modified C3N4 nanosheets (Apt/C3N4 NSs) together solvent-mediated signal amplification strategy ratiometric fluorescence proteins. Three aptamers specific to are selected construct...
