Abstract: PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are at the center of a small RNA-based immune system that defends genomes against the deleterious action of mobile genetic elements (transposons). PiRNAs are highly variable in sequence with extensive targeting potential.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/molbev/msaf127
Abstract: Abstract How viruses evolve largely depends on their hosts. To quantitatively characterize this dependence, we introduce Maximum Entropy Nucleotide Bias models (MENB) learned from single, di- and tri-nucleotide usage of viral sequences that infect a… read more here.
