Identification of cyanobacterial non-coding RNAs by comparative genome analysis.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Immunolabeling of metaphase chromosome spreads can map components of the human epigenome at the single cell level. Previously, there has been no systematic attempt to explore the potential of this approach for epigenomic mapping and thereby to complement approaches based on chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChI...
