189 results about "Ribosome" patented technology

Ribosomes (/ˈraɪbəˌsoʊm, -boʊ-/) comprise a complex macromolecular machine, found within all living cells, that serves as the site of biological protein synthesis (translation). Ribosomes link amino acids together in the order specified by messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules. Ribosomes consist of two major components: the small ribosomal subunits, which read the mRNA, and the large subunits, which join amino acids to form a polypeptide chain. Each subunit consists of one or more ribosomal RNA (rRNA) molecules and a variety of ribosomal proteins (r-protein or rProtein). The ribosomes and associated molecules are also known as the translational apparatus.

Noise reduction method for single cell immune repertoire sequencing data and system thereof

This invention relates to the field of bioinformatics, and particularly to a method and system for denoising single-cell immune repertoire sequencing data. The method includes data preprocessing and feature extraction, bidirectional collaborative denoising, intelligent comprehensive judgment and classification, data archiving and background learning, and result output. Compared to existing technologies that primarily rely on static thresholds for cell filtering, which struggle to comprehensively assess and eliminate multi-dimensional noise, leading to incomplete purification and the potential deletion of high-value cell information, this invention employs a systematic denoising scheme integrating multi-parameter dynamic threshold filtering, specific gene contamination analysis, and targeted optimization of VDJ data. It sets dynamic thresholds by integrating multi-dimensional quality control indicators such as UMI number, gene number, and the proportion of mitochondrial and ribosomal genes, and specifically identifies and filters interfering genes and background sequences. This enables refined and hierarchical removal of complex noise, significantly improving the overall quality of cell datasets and the accuracy of VDJ receptor sequence analysis.
