Transcriptional regulatory networks underlying gene expression changes in Huntington's disease
Transcriptional changes occur presymptomatically and throughout Huntington's disease (HD), motivating the study of transcriptional regulatory networks (TRNs) in HD We reconstructed a genome-scale model for the target genes of 718 transcription factors (TFs) in the mouse striatum by integrating a model of genomic binding sites with transcriptome profiling of striatal tissue from HD mouse models....
متن کاملPredicting functional regulatory polymorphisms
MOTIVATION Limited availability of data has hindered the development of algorithms that can identify functionally meaningful regulatory single nucleotide polymorphisms (rSNPs). Given the large number of common polymorphisms known to reside in the human genome, the identification of functional rSNPs via laboratory assays will be costly and time-consuming. Therefore appropriate bioinformatics str...
متن کاملGenetic Effects of Polymorphisms in Myogenic Regulatory Factors on Chicken Muscle Fiber Traits
The myogenic regulatory factors is a family of transcription factors that play a key role in the development of skeletal muscle fibers, which are the main factors to affect the meat taste and texture. In the present study, we performed candidate gene analysis to identify single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the MyoD, Myf5, MyoG, and Mrf4 genes using polymerase chain reaction-single strand conform...
متن کاملMulti-organ whole-genome measurements and reverse engineering to uncover gene networks underlying complex traits
Together with computational analysis and modeling, the development of whole-genomemeasurement technologies holds the potential to fundamentally change research on complex disorders such as coronary artery disease. With these tools, the stage has been set to reveal the full repertoire of biological components (genes, proteins, and metabolites) in complex diseases and their interplay in modules a...
متن کاملSystems genetics: a paradigm to improve discovery of candidate genes and mechanisms underlying complex traits.
Understanding the control of any trait optimally requires the detection of causal genes, gene interaction, and mechanism of action to discover and model the biochemical pathways underlying the expressed phenotype. Functional genomics techniques, including RNA expression profiling via microarray and high-throughput DNA sequencing, allow for the precise genome localization of biological informati...
