Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Polymorphism Interaction Analysis (PIA): a method for investigating complex gene-gene interactions

BMC Bioinformatics, 2008
Background The risk of common diseases is likely determined by the complex interplay between environmental and genetic factors, including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Traditional methods of data analysis are poorly suited for detecting complex

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

Revealing Gene Function and Transcription Relationship by Reconstructing Gene-Level Chromatin Interaction

Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2019
Chromatin is hierarchically organized in human interphase nuclei. Dynamic chromatin interactions are thought to influence gene transcription and cell fate determination. A consensus concept is that genes may form transcription factories within nucleus by

The human gut microbiome across the life course

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

The role of gene–gene interaction in the prediction of criminal behavior

Comprehensive Psychiatry, 2014
A host of research has examined the possibility that environmental risk factors might condition the influence of genes on various outcomes. Less research, however, has been aimed at exploring the possibility that genetic factors might interact to impact the emergence of human traits.

Gene variants with suicidal risk in a sample of subjects with chronic migraine and affective temperamental dysregulation [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Risk factors for suicide are at least partially heritable and functional polymorphisms of targeted genes have been suggested to be implicated in the pathogenesis of this phenomenon.

Expression of SMARCD1 interacts with age in association with asthma control on inhaled corticosteroid therapy. [PDF]

, 2020
BackgroundGlobal gene expression levels are known to be highly dependent upon gross demographic features including age, yet identification of age-related genomic indicators has yet to be comprehensively undertaken in a disease and treatment-specific ...

Septin 9 PB domains coordinate centrosome positioning and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

Detecting gene–gene interactions that underlie human diseases [PDF]

Nature Reviews Genetics, 2009
Following the identification of several disease-associated polymorphisms by genome-wide association (GWA) analysis, interest is now focusing on the detection of effects that, owing to their interaction with other genetic or environmental factors, might not be identified by using standard single-locus tests. In addition to increasing the power to detect
