Identification and analysis of functional elements in 1% of the human genome by the ENCODE pilot project

Ewan Birney, +320 more
- 14 Jun 2007 - 
TL;DR: Functional data from multiple, diverse experiments performed on a targeted 1% of the human genome as part of the pilot phase of the ENCODE Project are reported, providing convincing evidence that the genome is pervasively transcribed, such that the majority of its bases can be found in primary transcripts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence of quadruplexes in the human genome

TL;DR: There is a significant repression of quadruplexes in the coding strand of exonic regions, which suggests that quadruplex-forming patterns are disfavoured in sequences that will form RNA.
Journal ArticleDOI

G-quadruplexes in promoters throughout the human genome

TL;DR: It is shown that the promoter regions (1 kb upstream of the transcription start site TSS) of genes are significantly enriched in quadruplex motifs relative to the rest of the genome, with >40% of human gene promoters containing one or more quadruplexaterials.
Journal ArticleDOI

An RNA G-quadruplex in the 5' UTR of the NRAS proto-oncogene modulates translation

TL;DR: A highly conserved, thermodynamically stable RNA G-quadruplex is discovered in the 5' untranslated region (UTR) of the gene transcript of the human NRAS proto-oncogene and it is demonstrated that this NRAS RNAG- quadruplex modulates translation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Putative DNA Quadruplex Formation within the Human c-kit Oncogene

TL;DR: The DNA sequence, d(AGGGAGGGCGCTGGGAGG AGGAGGG), occurs within the promoter region of the c-kit oncogene and it is shown that this sequence forms a four-stranded quadruplex structure under physiological conditions.
