Current Genomics

ISSN: 1389-2029 (Print)
eISSN: 1875-5488 (Online)

Current Genomics is a peer-reviewed journal that provides essential reading about the latest and most important developments in genome science and related fields of research. Systems biology, systems modeling, machine learning, network inference, bioinformatics, computational biology, epigenetics, single cell genomics, extracellular vesicles, quantitative biology, and synthetic biology for the study of evolution, development, maintenance, aging and that of human health, human diseases, clinical genomics and precision medicine are topics of particular interest. The journal covers plant genomics. The journal will not consider articles dealing with breeding and livestock. Current Genomics publishes three types of articles including: i) Research papers from internationally-recognized experts reporting on new and original data generated at the genome scale level. Position papers dealing with new or challenging methodological approaches, whether experimental or mathematical, are greatly welcome in this section. ii) Authoritative and comprehensive full-length or mini reviews from widely recognized experts, covering the latest developments in genome science and related fields of research such as systems biology, statistics and machine learning, quantitative biology, and precision medicine. Proposals for mini-hot topics (2-3 review papers) and full hot topics (6-8 review papers) guest edited by internationally-recognized experts are welcome in this section. Hot topic proposals should not contain original data and they should contain articles originating from at least 2 different countries. iii) Opinion papers from internationally recognized experts addressing contemporary questions and issues in the field of genome science and systems biology and basic and clinical research practices.

Microbial Destruction of Resistant Pollutants: Adaptive Reactions, Genetic Determinants and Characteristics of Enzyme Systems

Microbial technologies for environmental removal of persistent pollutants are effective and low-cost. Microorganisms catalyze a huge variety of metabolic pathways for the destruction of toxicants, which allows them to adapt to almost any type of organic pollutant and use it as a substrate/cosubstrate. Modern research methods, such as NGS, transcriptomic analysis, and whole-genome sequencing, make it possible to study in detail the capabilities of a particular organism. However, without studying the properties of isolated enzymes,... see more

New insights on Pediatric Tumors and Associated Cancer Predisposition Syndromes

Because of the broad spectrum of children cancer susceptibility, the diagnosis of cancer risk syndromes in children is rarely used in direct cancer treatment. The field of pediatric cancer genetics and genomics will only continue to expand as a result of increasing use of genetic testing tools. It's possible that people who have a children cancer predisposition syndrome might not be assessed in time to diagnose and prevent cancer in themselves or their family members... see more
