Expanding the UniFrac Toolbox
The UniFrac distance metric is often used to separate groups in microbiome analysis, but requires a constant sequencing depth to work properly. Here we demonstrate that unweighted UniFrac is highly sensitive to rarefaction instance and to sequencing depth in uniform data sets with no clear structure or separation between groups. We show that this arises because of subcompositional effects. We i...
متن کاملTargeted protein degradation as a tumor suppressor
Targeted protein degradation by the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) has an essential role in carcinogenesis and cancer cell survival. Thus, the search for proteasome inhibitors is of great interest as a potential anticancer therapy. Recent studies by the Ferbeyre group suggest that certain UPS-targeted proteins play a role not just in carcinogenesis, but also in cellular senescence. The limit...
متن کاملChemical inducers of targeted protein degradation.
The functions of many cellular proteins have been elucidated by selective gene inactivation and subsequent phenotypic analysis. For example, genetic mutations, gene knock-out generation, and the use of RNA interference to target mRNA for degradation can all result in decreased production of a specific protein, yielding informative cellular phenotypes. However, these techniques each have certain...
متن کاملExpanding the analytical toolbox: pharmaceutical application of quantitative NMR.
In response to the changing market pressures being applied to the pharmaceutical industry, a greater emphasis is being made to advance new drugs to market with minimal investment in early development stages. The use of quantitative NMR (q-NMR) has been shown to be a single point replacement for routine early development testing which previously combined elements of identity testing, chromatogra...
متن کاملExpanding access to rheumatology care: the rheumatology general practice toolbox.
Management guidelines for many rheumatic diseases are published in specialty rheumatology literature but rarely in general medical journals. Musculoskeletal disorders comprise 14% of all consultations in primary care. Formal post-graduate training in rheumatology is limited or absent for many primary care practitioners. Primary care practitioners can be trained to effectively treat complex dise...
