Predicting protein synergistic effect in Arabidopsis using epigenome profiling.

ABSTRACT: Histone modifications can regulate transcription epigenetically by marking specific genomic loci, which can be mapped using chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq). Here we present QHistone, a predictive database of 1534 ChIP-seqs from 27 histone modifications in Arabidopsis, offering three key functionalities. Firstly, QHistone employs machine learning to predict the epigenomic profile of a query protein, characterized by its most associated histone modifications, and uses these modifications to infer the protein's role in transcriptional regulation. Secondly, it predicts synergistic regulatory activities between two proteins by comparing their profiles. Lastly, it detects previously unexplored co-regulating protein pairs by screening all known proteins. QHistone accurately id
