Recently reported, 9aaTAD transcription factors p53, VP16, MLL/ALL, E2A, HSF1, NF-IL6, NFAT1 and NF-kB interact directly with the general coactivator CBP/p300 aside from already referred TAF9. All four domains of CBP/p300 - KIX, TAZ1, TAZ2 and IBiD provide multiple interactions with 9aaTADs, e.g. p53. Annotation of predicted 9aa TAD using Pattern search ScanProsite on ExPASy and relevant experimental data are listed. |

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small endogeneous non-coding RNAs of about 22nt length. These short RNAs regulate the expression of mRNAs by hybridizing with their 3'-UTRs or by translational repression. They have been shown to take crucial roles in many biological processes. Many of the current studies are focused over how mature miRNAs regulate mRNAs, even though there is very limited knowledge about their transcriptional loci. Primary miRNAs (pri-miRs) are first transcribed from the DNA, followed by the formation of precursor miRNA (pre-miR) by endonucleases activity, which finally produces mature miRNAs. Unfortunately, the identification of the loci of pri-miRs, and the associated information about transcription start sites (TSSs) and promoters is... |

RNA-seq technology facilitates the study of gene expression at the level of individual exons and transcripts. Moreover, RNA-seq enables unbiased comparative analysis of expression levels across species. Such analyses typically start by mapping sequenced reads to the appropriate reference genome before comparing expression levels across species. However, this comparison requires prior knowledge of orthology at the exon level. With this in mind, I constructed a database of orthologous exons across three primate species (human, chimpanzee, and rhesus macaque). The database facilitates cross-species comparative analysis of exon- and transcript-level regulation. A web application allowing for an easy database query: http://giladlab.uchicago.edu/orthoExon/ |

The genome of the Puerto Rican parrot (Amazona vittata) has been sequenced and assembled in an international collaboration supported by many individual donations from the people of Puerto Rico. This is a critically endangered endemic bird, the only surviving native parrot species in the territory of the United States, and the first parrot belonging to the large genus Amazona to have its genome sequenced and assembled. A genome of one A. vittata female was sequenced resulting in a total of almost 42.5 billion nucleotide bases equivalent to 26.89X average coverage depth. After filtering out the short fragments (<500bp), the assembly resulted in 259,423 short fragment library contigs, half of them (N50) of at least 6,983 bp in length, with a... |

Rodent kindling induced by pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) is an established model of epileptogenesis and antiepileptic drug (AED) testing. Recently, a Drosophila systems model has been described in which chronic PTZ causes a decreased climbing speed in adult males on 7th day. Some AEDs ameliorate development of this locomotor deficit. Time-series of microarray expression profiles of heads of flies treated with PTZ has been found to resemble transcriptomic alterations associated with epileptogenesis. In the fly model, withdrawal from seven day long PTZ treatment causes an increased climbing speed on 7th consequent day. Here, we present a systems model of the post-PTZ withdrawal regime. Unlike AED-untreated individuals, flies treated with any of the five AEDs... |

The association between transcription and DNA repair is acknowledged as a player in the generation of mutations in a non-random fashion in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Previous studies demonstrated that the transcription complex is capable of directing DNA repair to sites of transcription. This process is especially important to growth-arrested cells, in which many DNA repair capacities are diminished; it may also lead to mutations preferentially in transcribed genes. Using microarray analysis of growth-arrested yeast cultures, we demonstrated on a genomic scale, the co-localization of a DNA-turnover marker, indicative of DNA-repair-associated DNA synthesis, with genes persistently transcribed during stationary phase. This may serve as a clue regarding the... |

A novel approach based on latent variable modelling is presented for the analysis of multivariate quantitative and qualitative trait loci. The approach is general in the sense that it enables the joint analysis of many kinds of quantitative and qualitative traits (including count data and censored traits) in a single modelling framework. In the framework, the observations are modelled as functions of latent variables, which are then affected by quantitative trait loci. Separating the analysis in this way means that measurement errors in the phenotypic observations can be included easily in the model, providing robust inferences. The performance of the method is illustrated using two real multivariate datasets, from barley and Scots pine. |

Cancer is still one of the leading causes of death in the developed world. To address this problem, the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) has launched The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), a large scale systematic approach to characterize tumor samples from 20 cancer types and approximately 10,000 donor patients by using multiple high-throughput approaches. 

Multidisciplinary projects such as TCGA and related projects across Europe aim at identifying cancer “driver” mutations to be used as therapeutic targets or diagnostic tests. Extracting and aggregating the knowledge necessary to identify such mutations remains a challenge primarily due to the need to reliably integrate the experimental datasets... |

Transcription is the central process of gene regulation. In higher eukaryotes, the transcription of a gene is usually regulated by multiple cis-regulatory regions (CRRs). In different tissues, different transcription factors bind to their cis-regulatory motifs in these CRRs to drive tissue-specific expression patterns of their target genes. By combining the genome-wide gene expression data with the genomic sequence data, we proposed multiple-instance scoring (MIS) method to predict the tissue-specific motifs and the corresponding CRRs. The method is mainly based on the assumption that only a subset of CRRs of the expressed gene should function in the studied tissue. By testing on the simulated datasets and the fly muscle dataset, MIS can identify true... |

We conducted a comprehensive analysis of a manually curated human signaling network containing 1634 nodes and 5089 signaling regulatory relations by integrating cancer-associated genetically and epigenetically altered genes. We find that cancer mutating genes are enriched in positive signaling regulatory loops, whereas the cancer-associated methylating genes are enriched in negative signaling regulatory loops. We further characterized an overall picture of the cancer-signaling architectural and functional organization. From the network, we extracted an oncogene-signaling map, which contains 326 nodes, 892 links and the interconnections of mutated and methylated genes. The map can be decomposed into 12 topological regions or oncogene-signaling blocks,... |

Next generation sequencing (NGS) are these days one of the key technologies in biology. NGS' cost effectiveness and capability of finding the smallest variations in the genome makes them increasingly popular. For studies aiming at genome assembly, differences in read count statistics do not affect the outcome. However, these differences bias the outcome if the goal is to identify structural DNA characteristics like copy number variations (CNVs). Thus a normalization step must removed such random read count variations subsequently read counts from different experiments are comparable. Especially after normalization the commonly used assumption of Poisson read count distribution in windows on the chromosomes is more justified. Strong deviations of... |
