Translation initiation landscape profiling reveals hidden open reading frames required for the pathogenesis of tomato yellow leaf curl Thailand virus
Plant viruses with densely packed genomes employ non-canonical translational strategies to increase the coding capacity for virus function. However, the diverse translational strategies used make it challenging to define the full set of vir...

Lost in translation of genetic information? Back to the beginning to pinpoint translation initiators
A mRNA is a stretch of letters (i.e. A/U/C/G nucleotides), which contains genetic information to build proteins. Similar to the 'text translation' (i.e. translating texts from one language to another), the process of using mRNA sequence inf...
Regulatory divergence in wound-responsive gene expression between domesticated and wild tomato
Background: Two related species accumulate differences between each other over time. If one of the species is domesticated due to human selection of desirable traits, the domesticated species experiences a "bottleneck" where many traits pre...
