Journal ArticleDOI

High-throughput assay for determining specificity and affinity of protein-DNA binding interactions.

TL;DR: The detailed protocol for determining sequence specificities of DNA-binding proteins using this microwell-based assay is described, suitable for high-throughput screening to identify proteins or small molecules that modulate protein-DNA binding interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mice deficient of Myc super-enhancer region reveal differential control mechanism between normal and pathological growth

TL;DR: It is shown that a 538 kb deletion of the entire MYC upstream super-enhancer region in mice results in 50% to 80% decrease in Myc expression in multiple tissues, and indicates that targeting the activity of this element is a promising strategy of cancer chemoprevention and therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 regulates tumor invasion by coupling fibroblast growth factor signaling to extracellular matrix degradation.

TL;DR: A novel mechanism of tumor progression by matrix degradation involving epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in response to membrane-type 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP, MMP-14) induction at the edge of tumors expressing the FGFR4-R388 risk variant is described.
