Identification of CpG islands using a bank of IIR lowpass filters [PDF]

, 2004
It has been known that biological sequences such as the DNA sequence display different kinds of patterns depending on their biological functions. This statistical difference can be exploited for identifying the region of interest, such as the protein ...

Keep Fingers on the CpG Islands

Epigenomes
The post-genomic era has ushered in the extensive application of epigenetic editing tools, allowing for precise alterations of gene expression. The use of reprogrammable editors that carry transcriptional corepressors has significant potential for long-term epigenetic silencing for the treatment of human diseases.

Comparing self‐reported race and genetic ancestry for identifying potential differentially methylated sites in endometrial cancer: insights from African ancestry proportions using machine learning models

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Integrating ancestry, differential methylation analysis, and machine learning, we identified robust epigenetic signature genes (ESGs) and Core‐ESGs in Black and White women with endometrial cancer. Core‐ESGs (namely APOBEC1 and PLEKHG5) methylation levels were significantly associated with survival, with tumors from high African ancestry (THA) showing ...

Restriction landmark genomic scanning (RLGS) spot identification by second generation virtual RLGS in multiple genomes with multiple enzyme combinations. [PDF]

, 2007
BackgroundRestriction landmark genomic scanning (RLGS) is one of the most successfully applied methods for the identification of aberrant CpG island hypermethylation in cancer, as well as the identification of tissue specific methylation of CpG islands ...

Comprehensive omics‐based classification system in adult patients with B‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The COMBAT classification system, developed through multi‐omics integration, stratifies adult patients with B‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia(B‐ALL) into three molecular subtypes with distinct surface antigen patterns, immune landscape, methylation patterns, biological pathways and prognosis.

Orphan CpG islands as alternative promoters

Transcription, 2017
CpG islands (CGIs) are associated with ∼60% of mammalian promoters. Most unmethylated CGIs exhibit transcriptional activity, which has led to their co-option as promoters by retrogenes. CGIs may also serve as alternative promoters for downstream genes with methylated promoters, with implications on aberrant activation of oncogenes in cancer phenotypes.

Possible role of human ribonuclease dicer in the regulation of R loops

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
R loops play an important role in regulating key cellular processes such as replication, transcription, centromere stabilization, or control of telomere length. However, the unscheduled accumulation of R loops can cause many diseases, including cancer, and neurodegenerative or inflammatory disorders. Interestingly, accumulating data indicate a possible

Embryo culture in presence of oviductal fluid induces DNA methylation changes in bovine blastocysts [PDF]

, 2017
During the transit through the oviduct, the early embryo initiates an extensive DNA methylation reprogramming of its genome. Given that these epigenetic modifications are susceptible to environmental factors, components present in the oviductal milieu ...

Frequency‐Dependent Demethylation of Cancer DNAs by High‐Power Terahertz Radiation

Advanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
Effective demethylation of cancer DNA is successfully demonstrated by resonant irradiation with high‐power terahertz (THz) waves at the 10 mW level, combined with metamaterial‐based THz filters. The dependence of spectral filtering on demethylation indicates that the resonant frequency of 1.6 THz of cancer DNAs plays a crucial role in reducing the ...
