Genetic recombination is targeted towards gene promoter regions in dogs. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2013
The identification of the H3K4 trimethylase, PRDM9, as the gene responsible for recombination hotspot localization has provided considerable insight into the mechanisms by which recombination is initiated in mammals.

Chamber-specific chromatin architecture guides functional interpretation of disease-associated Cis-regulatory elements in human cardiomyocytes [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Cis-regulatory elements (CREs) are noncoding DNA regions regulating cell-type-specific gene expression programs by interacting with distal gene promoters.

Growth hormone deficiency in three siblings homozygous for a rare GH1 haplotype [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
IntroductionGrowth Hormone (GH), secreted by the anterior pituitary gland, is a key regulator of postnatal growth. Mutations in the GH1 gene can lead to isolated GH deficiency (IGHD), a rare disorder characterized by growth failure and severe short ...

Building the Frequency Profile of the Core Promoter Element Patterns in the Three ChromHMM Promoter States at 200bp Intervals: A Statistical Perspective [PDF]

open access: yesGenomics & Informatics, 2015
Recently, the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) Analysis Working Group converted data from ChIP-seq analyses from the Broad Histone track into 15 corresponding chromatic maps that label sequences with different kinds of histone modifications in ...

DNA structural and physical properties reveal peculiarities in promoter sequences of the bacterium Escherichia coli K-12

open access: yesSN Applied Sciences, 2021
The gene transcription of bacteria starts with a promoter sequence being recognized by a transcription factor found in the RNAP enzyme, this process is assisted through the conservation of nucleotides as well as other factors governing these intergenic ...

Insights into alpha-hemolysin (Hla) evolution and expression among Staphylococcus aureus clones with hospital and community origin. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Alpha-hemolysin (Hla) is a major virulence factor in the pathogenesis of Staphylococcus aureus infection, being active against a wide range of host cells. Although hla is ubiquitous in S.

Genetic variants in histone modification regions are associated with the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
We investigated the association between genetic variants in the histone modification regions and the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma after curative surgery. Potentially functional SNPs were selected using integrated analysis of ChIP-seq and RNA-seq. The

Characterization of transcriptional enhancers in the chicken genome using CRISPR-mediated activation

open access: yesFrontiers in Genome Editing, 2023
DNA regulatory elements intricately control when, where, and how genes are activated. Therefore, understanding the function of these elements could unveil the complexity of the genetic regulation network.

Isolation of novel citrus and plum fruit promoters and their functional characterization for fruit biotechnology

open access: yesBMC Biotechnology, 2020
Background Promoters that confer expression in fruit tissues are important tools for genetic engineering of fruit quality traits, yet few fruit-specific promoters have been identified, particularly for citrus fruit development.
