Optimized ChIP-seq method facilitates transcription factor profiling in human tumorsThis study presents an optimized ChIP-seq protocol to enhance transcription factor profiling in human tumours, enabling the analysis of highly challenging samples, including core needle biopsies.
Re-annotation of eight Drosophila genomesUsing a well-annotated genome to inform the annotation of genomes in a phylogeny.
Ribosomal stalling landscapes revealed by high-throughput inverse toeprinting of mRNA librariesHigh-throughput inverse toeprinting identifies peptide-encoding transcripts that induce ribosome stalling and allows the systematic analysis of sequence-dependent translational events.
Distinctive features of lincRNA gene expression suggest widespread RNA-independent functionsCombining single-cell RNA-seq of mouse ESCs and NPCs, lincRNA gene deletions, conditional RNA depletion, and nuclear exosome profiling distinguishes RNA-dependent and RNA-independent lincRNA gene activities.
Silica-based solid-phase extraction of cross-linked nucleic acid–bound proteinsThe 2C method allows the rapid and straightforward isolation of nucleic acid–protein complexes, greatly simplifying downstream applications for the study of DNA– and RNA–protein interactions.
Multiple membrane extrusion sites drive megakaryocyte migration into bone marrow blood vesselsMegakaryocytes enter bone marrow sinusoids to generate platelets by extrusion of internal membrane into the plasma membrane at fusion sites rather than microtubule-driven proplatelet extension.
