3D disorganization and rearrangement of genome provide insights into pathogenesis of NAFLD by integrated Hi-C, Nanopore, and RNA sequencing

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2021
The three-dimensional (3D) conformation of chromatin is integral to the precise regulation of gene expression. The 3D genome and genomic variations in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are largely unknown, despite their key roles in cellular ...

CTCF-Mediated Human 3D Genome Architecture Reveals Chromatin Topology for Transcription. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Spatial genome organization and its effect on transcription remains a fundamental question. We applied an advanced chromatin interaction analysis by paired-end tag sequencing (ChIA-PET) strategy to comprehensively map higher-order chromosome folding and ...

Mechanical determinants of chromatin topology and gene expression

open access: yesNucleus, 2022
The compaction of linear DNA into micrometer-sized nuclear boundaries involves the establishment of specific three-dimensional (3D) DNA structures complexed with histone proteins that form chromatin.

From association to mechanism in complex disease genetics: the role of the 3D genome

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2018
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and fine mapping studies in autoimmune diseases have identified thousands of genetic variants, the majority of which are located in non-protein-coding enhancer regions.

DNA Methylation Directs Polycomb-Dependent 3D Genome Re-organization in Naive Pluripotency

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: The DNA hypomethylation that occurs when embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are directed to the ground state of naive pluripotency by culturing in two small molecule inhibitors (2i) results in redistribution of polycomb (H3K27me3) away from its target ...

Manifold Based Optimization for Single-Cell 3D Genome Reconstruction. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2015
The three-dimensional (3D) structure of the genome is important for orchestration of gene expression and cell differentiation. While mapping genomes in 3D has for a long time been elusive, recent adaptations of high-throughput sequencing to chromosome ...

Optoepigenetics for 3D genome engineering [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Genetics, 2019
A study in Nature Methods describes a light-activated dynamic looping (LADL) system, which consists of a synthetic architectural protein that rapidly induces long-range chromatin interactions in response to blue light.

Integrating Transposable Elements in the 3D Genome [PDF]

open access: yesMobile DNA, 2019
Chromosome organisation is increasingly recognised as an essential component of genome regulation, cell fate and cell health. Within the realm of transposable elements (TEs) however, the spatial information of how genomes are folded is still only rarely integrated in experimental studies or accounted for in modelling.

Automatic generation of 3D motifs for classification of protein binding sites

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: Since many of the new protein structures delivered by high-throughput processes do not have any known function, there is a need for structure-based prediction of protein function. Protein 3D structures can be clustered according to their fold

A novel neoantigen discovery approach based on chromatin high order conformation

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics, 2020
Background High-throughput sequencing technology has yielded reliable and ultra-fast sequencing for DNA and RNA. For tumor cells of cancer patients, when combining the results of DNA and RNA sequencing, one can identify potential neoantigens that ...
