Computational methods to predict Z-DNA regions are in high demand to understand the functional role of Z-DNA. The previous state-of-the-art method Z-Hunt is based on statistical mechanical and energy considerations about B- to Z-DNA transition using ...
BACKGROUND: The use of predictive gene signatures to assist clinical decision is becoming more and more important. Deep learning has a huge potential in the prediction of phenotype from gene expression profiles. However, neural networks are viewed as...
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved state-of-the-art performance in identifying gene regulatory sequences, but they have provided limited insight into the biology of regulatory elements due to the difficulty of interpreting the complex features...

A substantial body of research is focused to improve the understanding of the relationship between genotypes and phenotypes. Genotype-phenotype studies have shown promise in improving disease diagnosis in humans and identification of specific clinica...
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are single-stranded RNA molecules that control gene expression in various processes, such as cancers, Alzheimer's disease, and bone metabolic diseases. However, the regulatory roles of miRNAs in osteoporosis have not been systemati...
BACKGROUND: Hypoxia status and immunity are related with the development and prognosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Here, we constructed a hypoxia-immune model to explore its upstream mechanism and identify potential CpG sites.

Enhancers are noncoding fragments in DNA sequences, which play an important role in gene transcription and translation. However, due to their high free scattering and positional variability, the identification and classification of enhancers have a h...
BACKGROUND: Cancer of unknown primary (CUP), representing approximately 3-5% of all malignancies, is defined as metastatic cancer where a primary site of origin cannot be found despite a standard diagnostic workup. Because knowledge of a patient's pr...
Gene ontology (GO) is an eminent knowledge base frequently used for providing biological interpretations for the analysis of genes or gene sets from biological, medical and clinical problems. Unfortunately, the interpretation of such results is chall...
