A red/far-red light-responsive bi-stable toggle switch to control gene expression in mammalian cells

Stéphanie Elisabeth Metzger, Martin Ehrbar

Growth and differentiation of multicellular systems is orchestrated by spatially restricted gene expression programs in specialized subpopulations. The targeted manipulation of such processes by synthetic tools with high-spatiotemporal resolution could, th ...

ChIPnorm: a statistical method for normalizing and identifying differential regions in histone modification ChIP-seq libraries

Bernard Moret, Philipp Bucher, Nishanth Ulhas Nair

The advent of high-throughput technologies such as ChIP-seq has made possible the study of histone modifications. A problem of particular interest is the identification of regions of the genome where different cell types from the same organism exhibit diff ...

Genomics and transcriptomics of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex

Swapna Uplekar

The goal of eliminating tuberculosis (TB) by 2050 depends on the development of improved TB diagnostics, drugs and vaccines. Advances in these areas require a deep understanding of the disease and its causative agent, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb). My ...

Virulence Regulator EspR of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Is a Nucleoid-Associated Protein

Stewart Cole, Jacques Rougemont, Florence Pojer, Claudia Sala, Ruben Hartkoorn, Swapna Uplekar, Jeffrey Chen, Benjamin Blasco

The principal virulence determinant of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the ESX-1 protein secretion system, is positively controlled at the transcriptional level by EspR. Depletion of EspR reportedly affects a small number of genes, both positively or neg ...

RNA Profiling and Chromatin Immunoprecipitation-Sequencing Reveal that PTF1a Stabilizes Pancreas Progenitor Identity via the Control of MNX1/HLXB9 and a Network of Other Transcription Factors

Emilie Gesina, Philipp Bucher, Anne Grapin-Botton, Nancy Thompson

Pancreas development is initiated by the specification and expansion of a small group of endodermal cells. Several transcription factors are crucial for progenitor maintenance and expansion, but their interactions and the downstream targets mediating their ...

KRAB/KAP1 Regulation of Embryonic Stem Cell Pluripotent Self-renewal

Andrea Corsinotti

KRAB-ZFPs constitute the largest family of transcription factors (TFs) encoded by the mouse genome and are known to interact with the co-repressor KAP1. KRAB/KAP1-mediated regulation is essential for several development- and ESC- specific functions, in par ...

Computational analysis of protein-DNA interactions from ChIP-seq data

Felix Naef, Jacques Rougemont

Chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments followed by ultra-high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) is becoming the method of choice to identify transcription factor binding sites in prokaryotes and eukaryotes in vivo. Here, we review the computational steps ...

On the Relationship Between Protein-DNA Interactions and Circadian Gene Expression in Mouse Liver

Guillaume Rey

Virtually every cell in our body tracks daily time using an endogenous mechanism called the circadian clock, which has a period of about 24 hours. This timing system offers a selective advantage by enabling organisms to anticipate periodic changes in envir ...

MER41 repeat sequences contain inducible STAT1 binding sites

Philipp Bucher

Chromatin immunoprecipitation combined with massively parallel sequencing methods (ChIP-seq) is becoming the standard approach to study interactions of transcription factors (TF) with genomic sequences. At the example of public STAT1 ChIP-seq data sets, we ...

TIN2-tethered TPP1 recruits human telomerase to telomeres in vivo

Joachim Lingner, Elena Aritonovska

Recruitment to telomeres is a pivotal step in the function and regulation of human telomerase; however, the molecular basis for recruitment is not known. Here, we have directly investigated the process of telomerase recruitment via fluorescence in situ hyb ...
