G-quadruplexes (GQs) are non-canonical DNA structures encoded by G-flipons with potential roles in gene regulation and chromatin structure. Here, we explore the role of G-flipons in tissue specification. We present a deep learning-based framework for...
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly aggressive brain tumor with poor outcomes and limited treatment options. The telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) promoter mutation, one of the key biomarkers in GBM, is linked to tumor progression and prognosis. Thi...
BACKGROUND: Predicting protein-DNA binding sites in vivo is a challenging but urgent task in many fields such as drug design and development. Most promoters contain many transcription factor (TF) binding sites, yet only a few have been identified thr...
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...
O-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter methylation is a crucial biomarker in glioblastoma (GBM) that influences response to temozolomide. Traditional detection methods, such as gene sequencing, are time-consuming and limited to postope...
UNLABELLED: In the field of synthetic biology, the engineering of synthetic promoters that outperform their natural counterparts is of paramount importance, which can optimize the expression of exogenous genes, enhance the efficiency of metabolic pat...
Promoter prediction is essential for analyzing gene structures, understanding regulatory networks, transcription mechanisms, and precisely controlling gene expression. Recently, computational and deep learning methods for promoter prediction have gai...

It is crucial to understand the transcription mechanisms of miRNAs, especially considering the presence of peptides encoded by miRNAs. Since promoters function as the switch for gene transcription, precisely identifying these regions is essential for...
BACKGROUND: Preoperative and noninvasive detection of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) and telomerase reverse transcriptase gene promoter (TERTp) mutations in glioma is critical for prognosis and treatment planning. This study aims to develop deep lear...
σ serves as an unconventional sigma factor with a distinct mechanism of transcription initiation, which depends on the involvement of a transcription activator. This unique sigma factor σ is indispensable for orchestrating the transcription of genes ...
