Adenosine to Inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing is a site-specific modification of RNA transcripts, catalyzed by members of the ADAR (Adenosine Deaminase Acting on RNA) protein family. RNA editing occurs in human RNA in thousands of different sites. Some of the sites are located in protein-coding regions ...

Alu SINEs are the most numerous frequently occurring transcription units in our genomes and possess sequence competence for transcription by RNA Pol III. However, through poorly understood mechanisms, the Alu RNA levels are maintained at very low levels in normal somatic cells with obvious benefits ...

Although liganded nuclear receptors have been established to regulate RNA polymerase II (Pol II)-dependent transcription units, their role in regulating Pol III-transcribed DNA repeats remains largely unknown. Here we report that ~2-3% of the ~100,000-200,000 total human DR2 Alu repeats located in p...

Folding of the mammalian genome is governed by architectural proteins, such asCTCF. TFIIIC, a RNA polymerase III transcription factor, has been identified as aninsulator but its role in genome topology is totally unknown. Here, we show that TFIIICestablishes long-range genomic interactions that affe...

Paired-end sequencing of methylated DNA fragments in B cell subsets revealed widespread loss of methylation at Alu elements upon B cell activation. DNA methylation pattern was analyzed in purified naïve and germinal-center B cells derived from 1 patient

An extrachromosomal replication system was established to examine the perturbation of Alu-carrying genes in response to elevated Alu RNAs in the opposite direction. The null hypothesis is that the Alu-carrying RNA duplex cannot trigger subsequent post-transcriptional regulation, manifesting a random...

Genome-wide perturbations of Alu expression and Alu-associated post-transcriptional regulations find a uniqueness in oligodendroglioma
Alu element is a major contributor to lineage-specific new exons in the primate and human genomes. Recent studies indicate that some Alu exons have high transcript inclusion levels or tissue-specific splicing profiles, and may play important regulatory roles in modulating mRNA degradation or transla...

Complementary Alu sequences mediate enhancer-promoter selectivity
Weaker CEBPA binding in the human than in the mouse genome is a general trait of the human genome across multiple biological conditions. Alu repeats carry strong CEBPA binding motifs, which compete with regulatory regions for CEBPA binding. To directly test this hypothesis, we attempted to overcome ...
