Barrett's esophagus is the assumed precusor to oesophageal adenocarcinoma. We profiled the open chromatin of human Barrett's biopsies to gain insight into its molecular basis.
To determine the ability of HNF4A and GATA6 to drive open chromatin formation, either HNF4A or GATA6 were overexpressed in normal oesophageal Het1A cells and ATAC-seq was performed.
To identify SmaugM-bM-^@M-^Ys target mRNAs on a genome-wide scale we used ribonucleoprotein (RNP) co-immunoprecipitation followed by microarray analysis of the co-purifying mRNAs (RIP-Chip). Extracts, prepared from wild-type embryos collected 0-3 hours post-egglaying, were immunoprecipitated with an...
To gain a panoramic view of Smaug function in the early embryo we identified mRNAs that are bound to Smaug using RNA co-immunoprecipitation followed by hybridization to DNA microarrays. We also identified the mRNAs that are translationally repressed by Smaug using polysome gradients and microarrays....
