Sperm RNA carries marks of trauma

RNA in human sperm.

We have yet to develop a fundamental understanding of the molecular complexities of human spermatozoa. This encompasses the unique packaging and structure of the sperm genome along with their paternally derived RNAs in preparation for their delivery to the egg. The diversity of these transcripts is vast, including several anti-sense molecules resembling known regulatory micro-RNAs. The field is...

TABLE OF MARKS OF FINITE GROUPS

Let G be a finite group and C(G) be the family of representative conjugacy classes of subgroups of G. The matrix whose H;K-entry is the number of fixed points of the set G=K under the action of H is called the table of marks of G where H;K run through all elements in C(G). In this paper, we compute the table of marks and the markaracter table of groups of order pqr where p, q, r are prime numbers.

Combinatorics of Balanced Carries

We study the combinatorics of addition using balanced digits, deriving an analog of Holte’s “amazing matrix” for carries in usual addition. The eigenvalues of this matrix for base b balanced addition of n numbers are found to be 1, 1/b, · · · , 1/b, and formulas are given for its left and right eigenvectors. It is shown that the left eigenvectors can be identified with hyperoctahedral Foulkes c...

Tissue-Specific RNA Expression Marks Distant-Acting Developmental Enhancers

Short non-coding transcripts can be transcribed from distant-acting transcriptional enhancer loci, but the prevalence of such enhancer RNAs (eRNAs) within the transcriptome, and the association of eRNA expression with tissue-specific enhancer activity in vivo remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated the expression dynamics of tissue-specific non-coding RNAs in embryonic mouse tissues via...
