Longitudinal personal DNA methylome dynamics in a human with a chronic condition

TL;DR: It is found that DNA methylomic changes are associated with infrequent glucose level alteration, whereas the transcriptome underwent dynamic changes during events such as viral infections, while most DNA meta-methylome changes occurred 80–90 days before clinically detectable glucose elevation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cooperative transcription factor associations discovered using regulatory variation

TL;DR: The Allele Binding Cooperativity test is described in detail, which uses variation in transcription factor binding among individuals to discover combinations of factors and their targets, and developed the ALPHABIT pipeline, which includes statistical analysis of binding sites followed by experimental validation.
Journal ArticleDOI

A transposable element that splits the promoter region inactivates a Drosophila cuticle protein gene.

TL;DR: Protein and DNA sequence analyses indicate that point mutations cause two amino acid substitutions that change the electrophoretic mobility of CPf2 relative to that of CP2, and insertion of a transposable element into the putative promoter region of the CP3 gene is evidently responsible for inactivatingCP3 gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Yeast as a Model for Human Disease

TL;DR: Yeast is a simple eukaryote with a tractable genome, a short generation time, and a large network of researchers who have generated a vast arsenal of research tools that make yeast ideally suited to help reveal the function of genes implicated in human disease.
