Genetic landscape of open chromatin in yeast. [PDF]
Chromatin regulation underlies a variety of DNA metabolism processes, including transcription, recombination, repair, and replication. To perform a quantitative genetic analysis of chromatin accessibility, we obtained open chromatin profiles across 96 ...

NicE-seq: high resolution open chromatin profiling [PDF]
Open chromatin profiling integrates information across diverse regulatory elements to reveal the transcriptionally active genome. Tn5 transposase and DNase I sequencing-based methods prefer native or high cell numbers. Here, we describe NicE-seq (nicking

Mapping open chromatin by ATAC-seq in bread wheat [PDF]
Gene transcription is largely regulated by cis-regulatory elements. Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq) is an emerging technology that can accurately map cis-regulatory elements in animals and plants.

Pan‐cancer analysis of mutations in open chromatin regions and their possible association with cancer pathogenesis [PDF]
Background Open chromatin is associated with gene transcription. Previous studies have shown that the density of mutations in open chromatin regions is lower than that in flanking regions because of the higher accessibility of DNA repair machinery ...

Single cell analysis of transcriptome and open chromatin reveals the dynamics of hair follicle stem cell aging [PDF]
Aging is defined as the functional decline of tissues and organisms, leading to many human conditions, such as cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and hair loss. Although stem cell exhaustion is widely recognized as a hallmark of aging, our understanding

Nucleosome-free open chromatin often harbors transcription factor (TF)-binding sites that are associated with active cis-regulatory elements. However, analysis of open chromatin regions has rarely been applied to oomycete or fungal plant pathogens.

Open chromatin in pluripotency and reprogramming [PDF]
Pluripotent stem cells can be derived from embryos or induced from adult cells by reprogramming. They are unique among stem cells in that they can give rise to all cell types of the body. Recent findings indicate that a particularly 'open' chromatin state contributes to maintenance of pluripotency. Two principles are emerging: specific factors maintain

Butterfly eyespots exhibit unique patterns of open chromatin [version 1; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]
Background: How the precise spatial regulation of genes is correlated with spatial variation in chromatin accessibilities is not yet clear. Previous studies that analysed chromatin from homogenates of whole-body parts of insects found little variation in

Open chromatin interaction maps reveal functional regulatory elements and chromatin architecture variations during wheat evolution [PDF]
Background Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) is an allohexaploid that is generated by two subsequent allopolyploidization events. The large genome size (16 Gb) and polyploid complexity impede our understanding of how regulatory elements and their ...
