Cis-Regulatory elements (cis-REs) include promoters, enhancers, and insulators that regulate gene expression programs via binding of transcription factors. ATAC-seq technology effectively identifies active cis-REs in a given cell type (including from...
The intrinsic DNA sequence preferences and cell type-specific cooperative partners of transcription factors (TFs) are typically highly conserved. Hence, despite the rapid evolutionary turnover of individual TF binding sites, predictive sequence model...
Transcription factors (TFs) play an important role in regulating gene expression, thus the identification of the sites bound by them has become a fundamental step for molecular and cellular biology. In this paper, we developed a deep learning framewo...
With the accumulation of ChIP-seq data, convolution neural network (CNN)-based methods have been proposed for predicting transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs). However, biological experimental data are noisy, and are often treated as ground trut...
Determining transcriptional factor binding sites (TFBSs) is critical for understanding the molecular mechanisms regulating gene expression in different biological conditions. Biological assays designed to directly mapping TFBSs require large sample s...
MOTIVATION: Genome sequencing experiments have revolutionized molecular biology by allowing researchers to identify important DNA-encoded elements genome wide. Regions where these elements are found appear as peaks in the analog signal of an assay's ...

Recent advances in single-cell sequencing assays for the transposase-accessibility chromatin (scATAC-seq) technique have provided cell-specific chromatin accessibility landscapes of cis-regulatory elements, providing deeper insights into cellular sta...
Recognizing binding sites of DNA-binding proteins is a key factor for elucidating transcriptional regulation in organisms. ChIP-exo enables researchers to delineate genome-wide binding landscapes of DNA-binding proteins with near single base-pair res...

The binding of DNA sequences to cell type-specific transcription factors is essential for regulating gene expression in all organisms. Many variants occurring in these binding regions play crucial roles in human disease by disrupting the cis-regulati...
Cell state atlases constructed through single-cell RNA-seq and ATAC-seq analysis are powerful tools for analyzing the effects of genetic and drug treatment-induced perturbations on complex cell systems. Comparative analysis of such atlases can yield ...
