MOTIVATION: Enhancer-Promoter Interactions (EPIs) is an essential step in the gene regulation process. However, the detection of EPIs by traditional wet experimental techniques is time-consuming and expensive. Thus, computational methods would be ver...
A promoter is a short DNA sequence near the start codon, responsible for initiating the transcription of a specific gene in the genome. The accurate recognition of promoters is important for achieving a better understanding of transcriptional regulat...

It is well-known that the major reason for the rapid proliferation of cancer cells are the hypomethylation of the whole cancer genome and the hypermethylation of the promoter of particular tumor suppressor genes. Locating 5-methylcytosine (5mC) sites...
Promoters are one of the most critical regulatory elements controlling metabolic pathways. However, the fast and accurate prediction of promoter strength remains challenging, leading to time- and labor-consuming promoter construction and characteriza...
An important reason of cancer proliferation is the change in DNA methylation patterns, characterized by the localized hypermethylation of the promoters of tumor-suppressor genes together with an overall decrease in the level of 5-methylcytosine (5mC)...
BACKGROUND: Enhancers are non-coding regions of the genome that control the activity of target genes. Recent efforts to identify active enhancers experimentally and in silico have proven effective. While these tools can predict the locations of enhan...
