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...
Transcription factors (TFs) play an important role in regulating gene expression, thus the identification of the sites bound by them has become a fundamental step for molecular and cellular biology. In this paper, we developed a deep learning framewo...
The intrinsic DNA sequence preferences and cell type-specific cooperative partners of transcription factors (TFs) are typically highly conserved. Hence, despite the rapid evolutionary turnover of individual TF binding sites, predictive sequence model...

The rapid development of high-throughput sequencing technology provides unique opportunities for studying of transcription factor binding sites, but also brings new computational challenges. Recently, a series of discriminative motif discovery (DMD) ...
BACKGROUND: Deep learning has proven to be a powerful technique for transcription factor (TF) binding prediction but requires large training datasets. Transfer learning can reduce the amount of data required for deep learning, while improving overall...
As a key component of gene regulation, transcription factors (TFs) play an important role in a number of biological processes. To fully understand the underlying mechanism of TF-mediated gene regulation, it is therefore critical to accurately identif...
