The three-dimensional landscape of cortical chromatin accessibility in Alzheimer’s disease
To characterize the dysregulation of chromatin accessibility in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), we generated 636 ATAC-seq libraries from neuronal and nonneuronal nuclei isolated from the superior temporal gyrus and ...

Population-level variation in enhancer expression identifies disease mechanisms in the human brain
Identification of risk variants for neuropsychiatric diseases within enhancers underscores the importance of understanding population-level variation in enhancer function in the human brain. Besides regulating...

Genetics of the human microglia regulome refines Alzheimer’s disease risk loci
Microglia are brain myeloid cells that play a critical role in neuroimmunity and the etiology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), yet our understanding of how the genetic regulatory landscape controls microglial func...

Chromatin domain alterations linked to 3D genome organization in a large cohort of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder brains
Chromosomal organization, scaling from the 147-base pair (bp) nucleosome to megabase-ranging domains encompassing multiple transcriptional units, including heritability loci for psychiatric traits, remains lar...

Genetic Variation in Long-Range Enhancers
Cis-regulatory elements (CREs), including insulators, promoters, and enhancers, play critical roles in the establishment and maintenance of normal cellular function. Within each cell, the 3D structure of chromati...

Measuring mRNA Decay in Budding Yeast Using Single Molecule FISH
Cellular mRNA levels are determined by the rates of mRNA synthesis and mRNA decay. Typically, mRNA degradation kinetics are measured on a population of cells that are either chemically treated or genetically e...

Bimodal expression of PHO84 is modulated by early termination of antisense transcription
The presence of PHO84 sense and antisense transcripts in single cells is strongly anticorrelated, suggesting a switch-like regulation mechanism. Data from single-molecule fluorescent in situ hybridization experim...

Single-Molecule Resolution Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization (smFISH) in the Yeast S. cerevisiae
Regulating gene expression is a major task for all cellular systems. RNA production and degradation plays a critical role in this process and accurately measuring cellular mRNA levels is essential to understan...
