DNase I hypersensitive sites (DHSs) are accessible chromatin regions hypersensitive to cleavages by DNase I endonucleases. DHSs are indicative of cis-regulatory DNA elements (CREs), all of which play important roles in global gene expression regulati...
The majority of the human genome consists of non-coding regions that have been called junk DNA. However, recent studies have unveiled that these regions contain cis-regulatory elements, such as promoters, enhancers, silencers, insulators, etc. These ...
Cis-regulatory elements (CREs), including enhancers, silencers, promoters and insulators, play pivotal roles in orchestrating gene regulatory mechanisms that drive complex biological traits. However, current approaches for CRE identification are pred...

Cis-regulatory elements (cREs) play a crucial role in regulating gene expression and determining cell differentiation and state transitions. To capture the heterogeneous transitions of cell states associated with these processes, detecting cRE activi...
Predicting molecular processes using deep learning is a promising approach to provide biological insights for non-coding single nucleotide polymorphisms identified in genome-wide association studies. However, most deep learning methods rely on superv...
MOTIVATION: The increasing volume of data from high-throughput experiments including parallel reporter assays facilitates the development of complex deep-learning approaches for modeling DNA regulatory grammar.
MOTIVATION: Promoter-centered chromatin interactions, which include promoter-enhancer (PE) and promoter-promoter (PP) interactions, are important to decipher gene regulation and disease mechanisms. The development of next-generation sequencing techno...
Massively parallel reporter assay (MPRA) is a high-throughput method that enables the study of the regulatory activities of tens of thousands of DNA oligonucleotides in a single experiment. While MPRA experiments have grown in popularity, their small...
In the evolutionary history of plants, variation in cis-regulatory elements (CREs) resulting in diversification of gene expression has played a central role in driving the evolution of lineage-specific traits. However, it is difficult to predict expr...
MOTIVATION: Sequence models based on deep neural networks have achieved state-of-the-art performance on regulatory genomics prediction tasks, such as chromatin accessibility and transcription factor binding. But despite their high accuracy, their con...
