Learning the sequence code of protein expression in human immune cells.

Science advances
Accurate protein expression in human immune cells is essential for appropriate cellular function. The mechanisms that define protein abundance are complex and are executed on transcriptional, posttranscriptional, and posttranslational levels. Here, w...

Diff-SE: A Diffusion-Augmented Contrastive Learning Framework for Super-Enhancer Prediction.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Super-enhancers (SEs) are cis-regulatory elements that play crucial roles in gene expression and are implicated in diseases such as cancer and Alzheimer's. Traditional identification methods rely on ChIP-seq experiments, which are costly and time-con...

Machine learning-assisted decoding of temporal transcriptional dynamics via fluorescent timer.

Nature communications
Investigating the temporal dynamics of gene expression is crucial for understanding gene regulation across various biological processes. Using the Fluorescent Timer protein, the Timer-of-cell-kinetics-and-activity system enables analysis of transcrip...

Lineage-specific regulatory evolution: insights from massively parallel reporter assays.

Current opinion in genetics & development
Lineage-specific genetic variants play a key role in evolutionary divergence, particularly through changes in cis-regulatory elements that fine-tune gene expression. Massively parallel reporter assays (MPRAs) provide a powerful approach to characteri...

Evaluating methods for the prediction of cell-type-specific enhancers in the mammalian cortex.

Cell genomics
Identifying cell-type-specific enhancers is critical for developing genetic tools to study the mammalian brain. We organized the "Brain Initiative Cell Census Network (BICCN) Challenge: Predicting Functional Cell Type-Specific Enhancers from Cross-Sp...

iEnhancer-DS: Attention-based improved densenet for identifying enhancers and their strength.

Computational biology and chemistry
Enhancers are short DNA fragments that enhance gene expression by binding to transcription factors. Accurately identifying enhancers and their strength is crucial for understanding gene regulation mechanisms. However, traditional enhancer sequencing ...

High-resolution dynamic imaging of chromatin DNA communication using Oligo-LiveFISH.

Cell
Three-dimensional (3D) genome dynamics are crucial for cellular functions and disease. However, real-time, live-cell DNA visualization remains challenging, as existing methods are often confined to repetitive regions, suffer from low resolution, or r...

Utilizing a deep learning model based on BERT for identifying enhancers and their strength.

PloS one
An enhancer is a specific DNA sequence typically located within a gene at upstream or downstream position and serves as a pivotal element in the regulation of eukaryotic gene transcription. Therefore, the recognition of enhancers is highly significan...

DeepEnhancerPPO: An Interpretable Deep Learning Approach for Enhancer Classification.

International journal of molecular sciences
Enhancers are short genomic segments located in non-coding regions of the genome that play a critical role in regulating the expression of target genes. Despite their importance in transcriptional regulation, effective methods for classifying enhance...
