متن کاملDNA Sequence Complexity Reveals Structure Beyond GC Content in Nucleosome Occupancy
We introduce methods that rapidly evaluate a battery of informationtheoretic and algorithmic complexity measures on DNA sequences in application to potential binding sites for nucleosomes. The first application of this new tool demonstrates structure beyond GC content on DNA sequences in the context of nucleosome binding. We tested the measures on well-studied genomic sequences of size 20K and ...
متن کاملTraining-free atomistic prediction of nucleosome occupancy.
Nucleosomes alter gene expression by preventing transcription factors from occupying binding sites along DNA. DNA methylation can affect nucleosome positioning and so alter gene expression epigenetically (without changing DNA sequence). Conventional methods to predict nucleosome occupancy are trained on observed DNA sequence patterns or known DNA oligonucleotide structures. They are statistical...
متن کاملPredicting Human Nucleosome Occupancy from Primary Sequence
Nucleosomes are the fundamental repeating unit of chromatin and comprise the structural building blocks of the living eukaryotic genome. Micrococcal nuclease (MNase) has long been used to delineate nucleosomal organization. Microarray-based nucleosome mapping experiments in yeast chromatin have revealed regularly-spaced translational phasing of nucleosomes. These data have been used to train co...
متن کاملBINOCh: binding inference from nucleosome occupancy changes
UNLABELLED Transcription factor binding events are frequently associated with a pattern of nucleosome occupancy changes in which nucleosomes flanking the binding site increase in occupancy, while those in the vicinity of the binding site itself are displaced. Genome-wide information on enhancer proximal nucleosome occupancy can be readily acquired using ChIP-seq targeting enhancer-related histo...
