Recent analyses suggest that transposable element-derived transcripts are processed to yield a variety of small RNA species that play critical functional roles in gene regulation and chromatin organization as well as genome stability and maintenance. Here we report a mass spectrometry analysis of an RNA-affinity complex isolation using a piRNA homologous sequence derived from Alu retrotransposal RNA. Our data point to potential roles for piALU RNAs in DNA repair, cell cycle and chromatin regulations.
<p>In the social work field, international work plays an essential role in many services such as working with global agencies, aiding immigrants, and advocating for human rights. Representation of this area in the classroom is critical for ethical international practice and it also can be beneficial in developing skills for all students. This study aimed to look at how international social work is represented in undergraduate social work programs at universities across the country, and how they are preparing students to practice with any client, but particularly clients from other countries. Data were collected from course syllabi and analyzed for international content using content analysis. International social work content was found inconsistent across the syllabi collected. Suggestions were then given for international social work education models that can be used for effective class design.</p>

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
