Virologie : un outil bio-informatique innovant capable de mieux identifier les ARN circulaires
« vCircTrappist » : derrière ce nom original, se trouve un outil qui marque un tournant dans la recherche en virologie. Développé par un consortium de l’UNamur, l’ULB et l’ULiège, dont le doctorant Alexis Chasseur, membre de l’institut Narilis de l’UNamur et de l’institut Karolinska (Suède), cet outil permet d’identifier de manière fiable et sans biais les ARN circulaires générés par une large gamme de virus pathogènes, notamment les herpès virus, les adénovirus, les rétrovirus, les virus de la leucémie et ceux de la grippe…

Evidence That Dmrta2 Acts through Repression of Pax6 in Cortical Patterning and Identification of a Mutation Impairing DNA Recognition Associated with Microcephaly in Human
Dmrta2 (also designated Dmrt5) is a transcriptional regulator expressed in cortical progenitors in a caudomedialhigh/rostrolaterallow gradient with important roles at different steps of cortical devel...
