EPI-Mind: Identifying Enhancer-Promoter Interactions Based on Transformer Mechanism.

Interdisciplinary sciences, computational life sciences
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...

Deep learning modeling mA deposition reveals the importance of downstream cis-element sequences.

Nature communications
The N-methyladenosine (mA) modification is deposited to nascent transcripts on chromatin, but its site-specificity mechanism is mostly unknown. Here we model the mA deposition to pre-mRNA by iM6A (intelligent mA), a deep learning method, demonstratin...

Chromatin interaction-aware gene regulatory modeling with graph attention networks.

Genome research
Linking distal enhancers to genes and modeling their impact on target gene expression are longstanding unresolved problems in regulatory genomics and critical for interpreting noncoding genetic variation. Here, we present a new deep learning approach...

DeepCAGE: Incorporating Transcription Factors in Genome-wide Prediction of Chromatin Accessibility.

Genomics, proteomics & bioinformatics
Although computational approaches have been complementing high-throughput biological experiments for the identification of functional regions in the human genome, it remains a great challenge to systematically decipher interactions between transcript...

CoRE-ATAC: A deep learning model for the functional classification of regulatory elements from single cell and bulk ATAC-seq data.

PLoS computational biology
Cis-Regulatory elements (cis-REs) include promoters, enhancers, and insulators that regulate gene expression programs via binding of transcription factors. ATAC-seq technology effectively identifies active cis-REs in a given cell type (including from...

Deep learning and alignment of spatially resolved single-cell transcriptomes with Tangram.

Nature methods
Charting an organs' biological atlas requires us to spatially resolve the entire single-cell transcriptome, and to relate such cellular features to the anatomical scale. Single-cell and single-nucleus RNA-seq (sc/snRNA-seq) can profile cells comprehe...

ReFeaFi: Genome-wide prediction of regulatory elements driving transcription initiation.

PLoS computational biology
Regulatory elements control gene expression through transcription initiation (promoters) and by enhancing transcription at distant regions (enhancers). Accurate identification of regulatory elements is fundamental for annotating genomes and understan...

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs): concepts and applications in pharmacogenomics.

Molecular diversity
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been used to extract information from various datasets of different dimensions. This approach has led to accurate interpretations in several subfields of biological research, like pharmacogenomics, addressing...

Deep learning-based enhancement of epigenomics data with AtacWorks.

Nature communications
ATAC-seq is a widely-applied assay used to measure genome-wide chromatin accessibility; however, its ability to detect active regulatory regions can depend on the depth of sequencing coverage and the signal-to-noise ratio. Here we introduce AtacWorks...
