Journal ArticleDOI

Determination of enriched histone modifications in non-genic portions of the human genome.

TL;DR: This work has extended the analysis of histone modifications to gene deserts, pericentromeres and subtelomeres and found that each of these non-genic regions has a particular profile of hist one modifications that distinguish it from the other non-coding regions.
Journal ArticleDOI

In Situ Capture of Chromatin Interactions by Biotinylated dCas9.

TL;DR: Detailed analysis of chromatin interactions at disease-associated cis-elements and developmentally regulated super-enhancers reveals spatial features that causally control gene transcription that provide mechanistic insight into genome structure and function in development and disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative transcriptome profiling of the human and mouse dorsal root ganglia: an RNA-seq–based resource for pain and sensory neuroscience research

TL;DR: Analysis of human dorsal root ganglia samples from organ donors and RNA-sequencing to study the hDRG transcriptional landscape provides insight into DRG biology for guiding development of novel therapeutics and a blueprint for cross-species transcriptomic analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of the human cancer microRNA network

TL;DR: A cancer-miRNA network is developed by mining the literature of experimentally verified cancer- miRNA relationships and it is found that in 67% of the cancer types have at least two neighboring miRNAs showing downregulation which is statistically significant (P < 10-7, Randomization test).
