The goal of this study was to profile Blimp1 binding in E18.5 small intestine using a Blimp-1-eGFP knock-in allele, and to compare Blimp-1-eGFP genomic binding with Irf-1 genomic binding in normal small intestine. Changes in Irf-1 binding between wild type and Prdm1/Blimp-1 mutant small intestine w...
Intragenic 5-methylcytosine and CTCF mediate opposing affects on pre-mRNA splicing: CTCF promotes inclusion of weak upstream exons through RNA polymerase II pausing, whereas 5-methylcytosine evicts CTCF, leading to exon exclusion. However, the mechanisms governing dynamic DNA methylation at CTCF bin...
The SIVmac251 macaque model has been used to evaluate the efficacy of vaccine for HIV. Exposure of macaques to a single high dose of SIVmac251 results in transmission of multiple viral variants, which contrasts the few HIV variants typically transmitted in humans. In here, we investigated whether th...

Pancreatic cancer remains one of the most lethal of malignancies and a major health burden. We performed whole genome sequencing and CNV analysis of 100 pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas. Chromosomal rearrangements leading to gene disruption were frequent, affecting genes known to be important in pa...
