DanQ: a hybrid convolutional and recurrent deep neural network for quantifying the function of DNA sequences. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Modeling the properties and functions of DNA sequences is an important, but challenging task in the broad field of genomics. This task is particularly difficult for non-coding DNA, the vast majority of which is still poorly understood in terms of ...

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

CastNet: a systems-level sequence evolution simulator

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2023
Background Simulating DNA evolution has been done through coevolution-agnostic probabilistic frameworks for the past 3 decades. The most common implementation is by using the converse of the probabilistic approach used to infer phylogenies which, in the ...

Learning the Regulatory Code of Gene Expression

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
Data-driven machine learning is the method of choice for predicting molecular phenotypes from nucleotide sequence, modeling gene expression events including protein-DNA binding, chromatin states as well as mRNA and protein levels.

PseudoFuN: Deriving functional potentials of pseudogenes from integrative relationships with genes and microRNAs across 32 cancers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BACKGROUND: Long thought "relics" of evolution, not until recently have pseudogenes been of medical interest regarding regulation in cancer. Often, these regulatory roles are a direct by-product of their close sequence homology to protein-coding genes.

The cytoskeletal control of B cell receptor and integrin signaling in normal B cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

A map of the cis-regulatory sequences in the mouse genome [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2012
The laboratory mouse is the most widely used mammalian model organism in biomedical research. The 2.6 × 10(9) bases of the mouse genome possess a high degree of conservation with the human genome, so a thorough annotation of the mouse genome will be of significant value to understanding the function of the human genome.

Systematic representation and optimization enable the inverse design of cross-species regulatory sequences in bacteria

open access: yesNature Communications
Regulatory sequences encode crucial gene expression signals, yet the sequence characteristics that determine their functionality across species remain obscure.

Genetics and regulatory impact of alternative polyadenylation in human B-lymphoblastoid cells.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2012
Gene expression varies widely between individuals of a population, and regulatory change can underlie phenotypes of evolutionary and biomedical relevance.

The role of Gdf5 regulatory regions in development of hip morphology. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Given GDF5 involvement in hip development, and osteoarthritis (OA) and developmental hip dysplasia (DDH) risk, here we sought to assess the role(s) of GDF5 and its regulatory sequence on the development of hip morphology linked to injury risk.
