DeepChrome 2.0: Investigating and Improving Architectures, Visualizations, & Experiments [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Histone modifications play a critical role in gene regulation. Consequently, predicting gene expression from histone modification signals is a highly motivated problem in epigenetics. We build upon the work of DeepChrome by Singh et al. (2016), who trained classifiers that map histone modification signals to gene expression.

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

A computational model for histone mark propagation reproduces the distribution of heterochromatin in different human cell types [PDF]
PLoS ONE 8(9): e73818, 2013 Chromatin is a highly compact and dynamic nuclear structure that consists of DNA and associated proteins. The main organizational unit is the nucleosome, which consists of a histone octamer with DNA wrapped around it. Histone proteins are implicated in the regulation of eukaryote genes and they carry numerous reversible post-translational modifications

Circulating Nucleosomes and Histones in the Development of Lung Injury and Sepsis
Current Issues in Molecular BiologyCellular nucleosomes—the structural and functional units of chromatin—are inherently present in cells. During cellular damage or cell death, nucleosomes are released into circulation, either actively or passively.

Identification of novel small molecule inhibitors of ETS transcription factors
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.ETS transcription factors play an essential role in tumourigenesis and are indispensable for sprouting angiogenesis, a hallmark of cancer, which fuels tumour expansion and dissemination. Thus, targeting ETS transcription factor function could represent an effective, multifaceted strategy to block tumour growth. The evolutionarily conserved E‐Twenty‐Six

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2000 Chromatin proteins play a role in the organization and functions of DNA. Covalent modifications of nuclear proteins modulate their interactions with DNA sequences and are probably one of the multiple factors involved in the process of switch on/off ...
