For medicine to fulfill its promise of personalized treatments based on a better understanding of disease biology, computational and statistical tools must exist to analyze the …
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has affected nations globally leading to illness, death, and economic downturn. Why disease severity, ranging from no symptoms to the requirement for …
Mechanisms by which specific histone modifications regulate distinct gene networks remain little understood. We investigated how H3K79me2, a modification catalyzed by DOT1L and …
DNA:DNA:RNA triplexes that are formed through Hoogsteen base-pairing of the RNA in the major groove of the DNA duplex have been observed in vitro, but the extent to which these …
RNA.DNA:DNA triple helix (triplex) formation is a form of RNA-DNA interaction which regulates gene expression but is difficult to study experimentally in vivo. This makes accurate …
Spatial genome organization is tightly controlled by several regulatory mechanisms and is essential for gene expression control. Nuclear receptors are ligand-activated …
The unicellular ciliate Paramecium contains a large vegetative macronucleus with several unusual characteristics, including an extremely high coding density and high polyploidy. As …
BACKGROUND: With the rise of single-cell RNA sequencing new bioinformatic tools have been developed to handle specific demands, such as quantifying unique molecular identifiers and …
