Specific DNMT3C flanking sequence preferences facilitate methylation of young murine retrotransposons
The DNA methyltransferase DNMT3C appeared as a duplication of the DNMT3B gene in muroids and is required for silencing of young retrotransposons in...

Flanking sequences influence the activity of TET1 and TET2 methylcytosine dioxygenases and affect genomic 5hmC patterns
TET dioxygenases convert 5-methylcytosine (5mC) preferentially in a CpG context into 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) and higher oxidized forms,...

Interconnected Codons: Unravelling the Epigenetic Significance of Flanking Sequences in CpG Dyads
Hypothesizing that CpG codon dyads, formed by consecutive codons containing a cytosine-guanine pair (NNC-GNN), may play a crucial role in gene...

ISOGlyP: O-Glycosylation Site Prediction Using Peptide Sequences and GALNTs
Mucin-type O-glycosylation is one of the most common posttranslational modifications of proteins. The abnormal expression of various polypeptide... -
Deep learning models incorporating endogenous factors beyond DNA sequences improve the prediction accuracy of base editing outcomes
Adenine base editors (ABEs) and cytosine base editors (CBEs) enable the single nucleotide editing of targeted DNA sites avoiding generation of double...

Four classic “de novo” genes all have plausible homologs and likely evolved from retro-duplicated or pseudogenic sequences
Despite being previously regarded as extremely unlikely, the idea that entirely novel protein-coding genes can emerge from non-coding sequences has...
