University of Toronto, genome regulatory evolution & transposons. Totally committed to science skeeting unlike on the bad place

(1/8) 🚀 Excited to share our findings on a large-scale ChIP-seq assay for 166 previously uncharacterized human transcription factors (TFs) and their roles in both regulatory regions, and more strikingly, the “dark matter” genome. 🌌 doi.org/10.1101/2024....

Extensive binding of uncharacterized human transcription factors to genomic dark matter

Most of the human genome is thought to be non-functional, and includes large segments often referred to as “dark matter” DNA. The genome also encodes hundreds of putative and poorly characterized tran...
