TLDR
It is demonstrated in macrophages and B cells that collaborative interactions of the common factor PU.1 with small sets of macrophage- or B cell lineage-determining transcription factors establish cell-specific binding sites that are associated with the majority of promoter-distal H3K4me1-marked genomic regions.

A high-density linkage map enables a second-generation collared flycatcher genome assembly and reveals the patterns of avian recombination rate variation and chromosomal evolution

TL;DR: It is found that flycatcher and zebra finch chromosomes are entirely syntenic but that inversions at mean rates of 1.5–2.0 event per chromosome have changed the organization within chromosomes, rates high enough for inversions to potentially have been involved with many speciation events during avian evolution.

An analytical framework for whole-genome sequence association studies and its implications for autism spectrum disorder.

TL;DR: Analyses of 519 autism spectrum disorder families did not identify association with any categories after correction for 4,123 effective tests, and the work suggests that robust results from WGS studies will require large cohorts and strategies that consider the substantial multiple-testing burden.

HOCOMOCO: expansion and enhancement of the collection of transcription factor binding sites models

TL;DR: The expanded and enhanced version of HOCOMOCO now provides position weight matrix (PWM) models for binding sites of 601 human TFs and, in addition, PWMs for 396 mouse TFs, and introduces the largest up to date collection of dinucleotide PWM models for 86 (52) human (mouse) TFs.

High-resolution profiling of histone methylations in the human genome.

TL;DR: High-resolution maps for the genome-wide distribution of 20 histone lysine and arginine methylations as well as histone variant H2A.Z, RNA polymerase II, and the insulator binding protein CTCF across the human genome using the Solexa 1G sequencing technology are generated.

RAG-1-deficient mice have no mature B and T lymphocytes

TL;DR: The introduction of a mutation in RAG-1 into the germline of mice via gene targeting in embryonic stem cells is described and it is shown that this mutation either activates or catalyzes the V(D)J recombination reaction of immunoglobulin and T cell receptor genes.

Genome-scale DNA methylation maps of pluripotent and differentiated cells

TL;DR: Low-throughput reduced representation bisulphite sequencing is established as a powerful technology for epigenetic profiling of cell populations relevant to developmental biology, cancer and regenerative medicine.
