A promoter is a small region within the DNA structure that has an important role in initiating transcription of a specific gene in the genome. Different types of promoters are recognized by their different functions. Due to the importance of promoter...
BACKGROUND: Enhancer-promoter interactions (EPIs) play key roles in transcriptional regulation and disease progression. Although several computational methods have been developed to predict such interactions, their performances are not satisfactory w...
INTRODUCTION: Survival varies in patients with glioblastoma due to intratumoral heterogeneity and radiomics/imaging biomarkers have potential to demonstrate heterogeneity. The objective was to combine radiomic, semantic and clinical features to impro...
Methylation of the O-methylguanine methyltransferase (MGMT) gene promoter is correlated with the effectiveness of the current standard of care in glioblastoma patients. In this study, a deep learning pipeline is designed for automatic prediction of M...
BACKGROUND: In silico promoter prediction represents an important challenge in bioinformatics as it provides a first-line approach to identifying regulatory elements to support wet-lab experiments. Historically, available promoter prediction software...
The RNA polymerase II (Pol II) core promoter is the strategic site of convergence of the signals that lead to the initiation of DNA transcription, but the downstream core promoter in humans has been difficult to understand. Here we analyse the human ...
Promoter recognition is an important part of functional genomic annotation but a difficult problem. Many studies have been carried out to address this issue. However, they still cannot meet application needs. Most of the methods exhibit specificity, ...

BACKGROUND: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and amino acid positron-emission tomography (PET) of the brain contain a vast amount of structural and functional information that can be analyzed by machine learning algorithms and radiomics for the use o...
The human epigenome has been experimentally characterized by thousands of measurements for every basepair in the human genome. We propose a deep neural network tensor factorization method, Avocado, that compresses this epigenomic data into a dense, i...
