This paper benchmarks 7 TR genotyping tools using Nanopore long-read data, finding that no single tool is best across all metrics, and that sequence-level accuracy is crucial for clinical and population studies.

This study identifies VILMIR as a long noncoding RNA that enhances the host interferon response by interacting with transcriptional and translational regulators in human epithelial cells.

This study identifies VILMIR, a novel lncRNA upregulated by respiratory viral infections and IFN-β, which modulates the host interferon response.

The paper develops ferret immune repertoire reference resources and assays using long-read transcriptome sequencing and genome annotation.

The paper identifies a gut microbial signature predictive of RhCMV/SIV vaccine efficacy in rhesus macaques using 16S rRNA analysis and compositional data techniques.

The paper identifies an IL-15 response signature in vaccinated rhesus macaques that correlates with protection against SIV challenge following RhCMV/SIV vaccination.

Isolator improves isoform-level RNA-Seq analysis by reducing variance and increasing agreement between samples through a Bayesian hierarchical model and bias correction.
