Japanese coach took a risk and it paid off. Had they tried to score and got caught on the break he d probably lost his job. Qualifying rounds is about getting through and they did.

a new technique called “t-SNE” that visualizes high-dimensional data by giving each datapoint a location in a two or three-dimensional map. (Maaten and Hinton, 2008 PDF)
Most researchers are already familiar with another dimensionality reduction algorithm, Principle Components Analysis (PCA) also available in R2 and explained in more detail in the Principle Components Analysis tutorial. Both PCA and t-SNE reduce the dimension while maintaining the structure of high dimensional data, however, PCA can only capture linear structures. t-SNE on the other hand captures both linear and non-linear relations and preserves local distances in high dimensions while reducing the information to 2 dimensions (an XY plot). (16. t-SNE: high dimensionality reduction in R2 How to find groups in your dataset using t-SNE. r2-tutorials.readthedocs.io)
そもそもなぜ次元削減をする必要があるの?
Computers have no problem processing that many dimensions. However, we humans are limited to three dimensions. Computers still need us (thankfully), so we often need ways to effectively visualize high-dimensional data before handing it over to the computer. (An illustrated introduction to the t-SNE algorithm By Cyrille Rossant March 3, 2015)
(上記サイトはヴィジュアルに非常にわかりやすくt-SNEの説明をしています)
遺伝子解析にはなぜPCAよりもt-SNEが適しているの?
First, although PCA minimizes global reconstruction error, it may not preserve local proximities of points. In visualizing gene expression data, we are typically more interested in resolving nearby clusters than in preserving the correct distance relationships between genes with very different patterns of expression. But the optimization criterion of PCA results in the opposite priority: the relationship of distant points is depicted as accurately as possible, while small inter-point distances can be distorted. Second, there may be no single linear projection that gives a good view of the data: in such a case, all linear projection methods will fail. (An intuitive graphical visualization technique for the interrogation of transcriptome data. Bushati et al., 2011. Nucleic Acids ResearchVolume 39, Issue 17,Pages 7380–7389)
t-SNEの使い方の注意は?
Following are a few common fallacies to avoid while interpreting the results of t-SNE:
For the algorithm to execute properly, the perplexity should be smaller than the number of points. Also, the suggested perplexity is in the range of (5 to 50)
Sometimes, different runs with same hyper parameters may produce different results.

t-SNEの短所は?
t-SNE has three potential weaknesses: (1) it is unclear how t-SNE performs on general dimensionality reduction tasks, (2) the relatively local nature of t-SNE makes it sensitive to the curse of the intrinsic dimensionality of the data, and (3) t-SNE is not guaranteed to converge to a global optimum of its cost function.

After signature genes selection, the results were evaluated by Davies-Bouldins index and then visualized using both a t-SNE 2D–plot and an unsupervised hierarchical clustering heatmap.
Specific loci in the mouse genome that allow stable, reliable, and ubiquitous transgene expression in the absence of adverse effects like Rosa26, Hprt1, or Col1A1, have become essential tools in the performance of genetic studies. Safe harbor loci allow comparable analysis between different lines of mice in isogenic contexts. ((Rapid and Efficient Generation of Recombinant Human Pluripotent Stem Cells by Recombinase-mediated Cassette Exchange in the AAVS1 Locus Ordovas et al. JoVE)
Expression of a randomly integrated transgene is unpredictable and tends to be unstable over time due to epigenetic effects. Further, random integration often yields multiple integrants per cell, and this can result in the disruption or activation of host cell genes. Such unintended side effects produce a non-isogenic experimental setting, and this can confound data analysis and interpretation. (DeKelver et al., Genome Res. 2010. 20: 1133-1142)

Using structure-based mutagenesis and neuron-based screening, we developed a family of ultrasensitive protein calcium sensors (GCaMP6) that outperformed other sensors in cultured neurons and in zebrafish, flies and mice in vivo.
Based on screening in cultured neurons (Fig. 1), we chose three ultrasensitive GCaMP6 sensors (GCaMP6s, 6m, 6f; for slow, medium and fast kinetics, respectively) for characterization in vivo. These sensors vary in kinetics, with the more sensitive sensors having slower kinetics. (Chen et al., 2013 Nature 499, 295-300)

Bacon notes that studies can be enjoyable, and they can also be useful (whether for developing critical thinking skills or learning something for one’s profession). But he also notes that if done too much, studying could lead to “sloth”— laziness (in other words, if all you do is study, you won’t make the time to apply what you’ve learned and use your knowledge in a positive way). Bacon also believed that certain subjects could enhance different abilities— for example, mathematics can improve concentration, poetry can enhance one’s “wit” (what we today would call a sense of humor), and studying history can expand one’s wisdom.

(7:15-) Now, when I show my students the mystery box, they say now show us what’s inside. But, I will never do that. Of course, it’s sealed. Just like science, the mystery box isn’t about the answer. We don’t have access to some sort of universal truth. All we have are the questions. I tell the students, they can go home and make their own mystery box. And, you can do that, too. And, if your mystery box works the same as mine, congratulations, you are successful. But I will never show you the inside of my mystery box. That’s the science demonstration, right?

We describe an isothermal, single-reaction method for assembling multiple overlapping DNA molecules by the concerted action of a 5′ exonuclease, a DNA polymerase and a DNA ligase. First we recessed DNA fragments, yielding single-stranded DNA overhangs that specifically annealed, and then covalently joined them. This assembly method can be used to seamlessly construct synthetic and natural genes, genetic pathways and entire genomes, and could be a useful molecular engineering tool.

an In-Fusion™ enzyme reaction can join any two pieces of DNA that have 15 bp of identity at their ends. … The In-Fusion mechanism is ligation-independent and while proprietary, likely uses the unique properties of the 3′–5′ exonuclease activity of poxvirus DNA polymerase. When incubated with linear duplex DNAs with homologous ends in the presence of Mg2+ and low concentrations of dNTP, the 3′–5′ proofreading activity of poxvirus DNA polymerase progressively removes nucleotides from the 3′ end. This exposes complementary regions on substrate DNAs that can then spontaneously anneal through base pairing, resulting in joined molecules containing a hybrid region flanked by nicks, 1–5 nucleotide gaps, or short overhangs. The annealed structures are metastable because the poxvirus DNA polymerase has a lower affinity for nicked or gapped DNA ends than for duplex ends. Introduction into Escherichia coli repairs any single-stranded gaps. (Zhu et al., BioTechniques, Vol. 43, No. 3, September 2007, pp. 354–359)
we developed a new restriction site independent cloning method that does not leave any unwanted sequences at the junction sites (seamless) and is based on in vitro recombination between short regions of homologies (15–52 bp) in bacterial cell extracts termed SLiCE (Seamless Ligation Cloning Extract). (Zhang, Werling and Edelmann. Nucleic Acids Res. 2012 Apr; 40(8): e55. Published online 2012 Jan 11. doi: 10.1093/nar/gkr1288)
SLiCE from Escherichia coli laboratory strains(本橋研究室):seamless cloningに関連する試薬は、Gibson assembly kitやIn-Fusion kitなどの名称で様々なメーカーから商品化されていますが、その多くが高価で、資金の乏しい研究室では購入を躊躇しているかもしれません。そのような方に、ぜひ試していただきたいのがこのSLiCE法です。
Homologous DNA ends are efficiently fused together and produce vector clones with great accuracy. (Cold Fusion Cloning Kit with Competent Cells. How It Works. SBI System Biosciences))
1) gibson leaves no nick on the product, while infusion does.
2) gibson is more robust, it tolerate 3´- & 5´-end mismatch, while infusion doesn’t. … most false positive colonies i got when using gibson were actually caused by primer dimer or unspecific pcr products (they have the same overlap ends as the designed products)
3) there is ligase in gibson. so if you use only one restriction enzyme to linearize your plasmid backbone and use it in the assembly. The ligase may repair the backbone back to empty plasmid.
(Xinglin Jiang, Technical University of Denmark. What‘s the differences between the gibson assembly(NEB) and in-fusion clone(clontech)? ResearchGate)
A major limitation to SLIC/Gibson/CPEC/SLiCE assembly is that the termini of the DNA sequence fragments to be assembled should not have stable single stranded DNA secondary structure, such as a hairpin or a stem loop (as might be anticipated to occur within a terminator sequence), as this would directly compete with the required single-stranded annealing/priming of neighboring assembly fragments.

Over the past decade, scientists have developed and fine tuned many different ways to clone DNA fragments which have provided appealing alternatives to restriction enzyme cloning. These newer technologies have become more and more common, and for good reason. They offer many advantages over the traditional restriction enzyme cloning we once relied exclusively on.

It’s been more than four decades since researchers launched the molecular-biology revolution with the invention of DNA cloning. In that time, the tools of the trade have changed relatively little, and for many researchers, DNA cloning still means restriction enzyme digestion and DNA ligation. … Today, thanks largely to the needs and creativity of the synthetic-biology community, alternative, “seamless” cloning strategies have been developed. Here are some of the more popular options. (Say Goodbye to Genetic Scars with These Seamless Cloning Kits

Cloning Without Restriction (TheScientist September 12, 2005) Key to Invitrogen’s Gateway technology is the “entry clone,” which contains a fragment of interest in a recombinase-ready plasmid. Researchers can quickly and efficiently move between expression systems without subcloning by swapping the insert from vector to vector.
