A Celaj, J Markle, J Danska, J Parkinson - Microbiome, 2014 - Springer
Background Microbiome-wide gene expression profiling through high-throughput RNA
sequencing (‘metatranscriptomics’) offers a powerful means to functionally interrogate complex …

An RNA foundation model enables discovery of disease mechanisms and candidate therapeutics

A Celaj, AJ Gao, TTY Lau, EM Holgersen, A Lo… - bioRxiv, 2023 - biorxiv.org
Accurately modeling and predicting RNA biology has been a long-standing challenge,
bearing significant clinical ramifications for variant interpretation and the formulation of tailored …

Quantitative analysis of protein interaction network dynamics in yeast

A Celaj, U Schlecht, JD Smith, W Xu… - Molecular Systems …, 2017 - embopress.org
Many cellular functions are mediated by protein–protein interaction networks, which are
environment dependent. However, systematic measurement of interactions in diverse …

[PDF][PDF] Highly combinatorial genetic interaction analysis reveals a multi-drug transporter influence network

A Celaj, M Gebbia, L Musa, AG Cote, J Snider, V Wong… - Cell systems, 2020 - cell.com
Many traits are complex, depending non-additively on variant combinations. Even in model
systems, such as the yeast S. cerevisiae, carrying out the high-order variant-combination …

Mapping DNA damage‐dependent genetic interactions in yeast via party mating and barcode fusion genetics

JJ Díaz‐Mejía, A Celaj, JC Mellor, A Coté… - Molecular Systems …, 2018 - embopress.org

[BOOK][B] Next-Generation Approaches for Understanding Physical and Genetic Networks

A Celaj - 2018 - search.proquest.com
Two approaches for understanding biological systems and gene function at a large scale are
the mapping of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) and genetic interactions (GIs). PPIs map …

[HTML][HTML] STAble: a novel approach to de novo assembly of RNA-seq data and its application in a metabolic model network based metatranscriptomic workflow

I Saggese, E Bona, M Conway, F Favero, M Ladetto… - BMC …, 2018 - Springer
Background De novo assembly of RNA-seq data allows the study of transcriptome in absence
of a reference genome either if data is obtained from a single organism or from a mixed …

[HTML][HTML] Fast and simple protein-alignment-guided assembly of orthologous gene families from microbiome sequencing reads

DH Huson, R Tappu, AL Bazinet, C Xie, MP Cummings… - Microbiome, 2017 - Springer
Background Microbiome sequencing projects typically collect tens of millions of short reads
per sample. Depending on the goals of the project, the short reads can either be subjected to …
