With the widespread adoption of next-generation sequencing technologies, the speed and convenience of genome sequencing have significantly improved, and many biological genomes have been sequenced. However, during the assembly of small genomes, we st...
MOTIVATION: Transcription factors are pivotal in the regulation of gene expression, and accurate identification of transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) at high resolution is crucial for understanding the mechanisms underlying gene regulation. T...
Promoters are DNA sequences that bind with RNA polymerase to initiate transcription, regulating this process through interactions with transcription factors. Accurate identification of promoters is crucial for understanding gene expression regulation...
Language models, especially transformer-based ones, have achieved colossal success in natural language processing. To be precise, studies like BERT for natural language understanding and works like GPT-3 for natural language generation are very impor...
Increasing evidence suggests that the human microbiome plays an important role in cancer risk and treatment. Untargeted 'omics' techniques have accelerated research into microbiome-cancer interactions, supporting the discovery of novel associations a...
MOTIVATION: Structural variants (SVs) play an important role in genetic research and precision medicine. As existing SV detection methods usually contain a substantial number of false positive calls, approaches to filter the detection results are nee...
Solid-state nanogap-based DNA sequencing with a quantum tunneling approach has emerged as a promising avenue due to its potential to deliver swift and precise sequencing outcomes. Nevertheless, despite significant progress, experimentally achieving s...
N4-methylcytosine (4mC) is a chemical modification that occurs on one of the four nucleotide bases in DNA and plays a vital role in DNA expression, repair, and replication. It also actively participates in the regulation of cell differentiation and g...
Traditional DNA storage technologies rely on passive filtering methods for error correction during synthesis and sequencing, which result in redundancy and inadequate error correction. Addressing this, the Low Quality Sequence Filter (LQSF) was intro...
