<i>Cis</i>-regulatory elements operating in the trophoblast. [PDF]
The placenta is vital for supporting embryonic development and ensuring a successful pregnancy. Its diverse functions are carried out by specialized trophoblast cell types, including the progenitor cytotrophoblast, the multinucleated syncytiotrophoblast, and the invasive extravillous trophoblast.

Identifying regulatory elements in eukaryotic genomes [PDF]
Proper development and functioning of an organism depends on precise spatial and temporal expression of all its genes. These coordinated expression-patterns are maintained primarily through the process of transcriptional regulation. Transcriptional regulation is mediated by proteins binding to regulatory elements on the DNA in a combinatorial manner ...

Uncovering Drug-Responsive Regulatory Elements
Nucleotide changes in gene regulatory elements can have a major effect on interindividual differences in drug response. For example, by reviewing all published pharmacogenomic genome-wide association studies, we show here that 96.4% of the associated single nucleotide polymorphisms reside in noncoding regions. We discuss how sequencing technologies are

Regulatory Elements for Gene Therapy of Epilepsy. [PDF]
The problem of drug resistance in epilepsy means that in many cases, a surgical treatment may be advised. But this is only possible if there is an epileptic focus, and resective brain surgery may have adverse side effects. One of the promising alternatives is gene therapy, which allows the targeted expression of therapeutic genes in different brain ...

Regulatory transposable elements in the encyclopedia of DNA elements
Abstract Transposable elements (TEs) make up about half of the human genome and many have the biochemical hallmarks of tissue- or cell type-specific cis -regulatory elements. While some TEs have been rigorously documented to contribute directly to host gene regulation, we still have

Function and Regulation of Nuclear DNA Sensors During Viral Infection and Tumorigenesis
IFI16, hnRNPA2B1, and nuclear cGAS are nuclear-located DNA sensors that play important roles in initiating host antiviral immunity and modulating tumorigenesis.

Investigation of regulatory elements related to superoxide dismutase enzyme genes in wheat [PDF]
Introduction: Wheat, like other plants, uses antioxidant enzymes to deal with the high production of free oxygen radicals. Antioxidant enzymes are proteins or polypeptides that are activated in cooperation with cellular substances or mineral elements and

Cis-Regulatory Elements in Mammals
In cis-regulatory elements, enhancers and promoters with complex molecular interactions are used to coordinate gene transcription through physical proximity and chemical modifications. These processes subsequently influence the phenotypic characteristics of an organism.

Identification of Genes and inducible regulatory elements in response to heat and cold stresses in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) [PDF]
Introduction: Barley (Hordeum vulgare), a member of the Poaceae family, is an important cereal grown in temperate climates worldwide. It was one of the first cultivated grains, especially in Eurasia 10,000 years ago. Globally, 70% of barley production is

Parallel genetics of regulatory sequences using scalable genome editing in vivo
Summary: How regulatory sequences control gene expression is fundamental for explaining phenotypes in health and disease. Regulatory elements must ultimately be understood within their genomic environment and development- or tissue-specific contexts ...
