ATAC‐seq: a method for assaying chromatin accessibility genome‐wide

JD Buenrostro, B Wu, HY Chang… - Current protocols in …, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
This unit describes Assay for Transposase‐Accessible Chromatin with high‐throughput
sequencing (ATAC‐seq), a method for mapping chromatin accessibility genome‐wide. This …

[PDF][PDF] Long noncoding RNAs in cancer pathways

AM Schmitt, HY Chang - Cancer cell, 2016 - cell.com
Genome-wide cancer mutation analyses are revealing an extensive landscape of functional
mutations within the noncoding genome, with profound effects on the expression of long …

Long non-coding RNA HOTAIR reprograms chromatin state to promote cancer metastasis

…, RB West, MJ Van De Vijver, S Sukumar, HY Chang - nature, 2010 - nature.com
Large intervening non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) are pervasively transcribed in the genome 1
, 2 , 3 yet their potential involvement in human disease is not well understood 4 , 5 . Recent …

Gene regulation in the immune system by long noncoding RNAs

YG Chen, AT Satpathy, HY Chang - Nature immunology, 2017 - nature.com
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as critical regulators of gene expression in
the immune system. Studies have shown that lncRNAs are expressed in a highly lineage-…

Genome regulation by long noncoding RNAs

JL Rinn, HY Chang - Annual review of biochemistry, 2012 - annualreviews.org
The central dogma of gene expression is that DNA is transcribed into messenger RNAs, which
in turn serve as the template for protein synthesis. The discovery of extensive transcription …

Transposition of native chromatin for fast and sensitive epigenomic profiling of open chromatin, DNA-binding proteins and nucleosome position

JD Buenrostro, PG Giresi, LC Zaba, HY Chang… - Nature …, 2013 - nature.com
We describe an assay for transposase-accessible chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq),
based on direct in vitro transposition of sequencing adaptors into native chromatin, as a …

Long noncoding RNA as modular scaffold of histone modification complexes

…, JK Wang, F Lan, Y Shi, E Segal, HY Chang - Science, 2010 - science.org
Long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs) regulate chromatin states and epigenetic
inheritance. Here, we show that the lincRNA HOTAIR serves as a scaffold for at least two distinct …

[PDF][PDF] Molecular mechanisms of long noncoding RNAs

KC Wang, HY Chang - Molecular cell, 2011 - cell.com
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are an important class of pervasive genes involved in a
variety of biological functions. Here we discuss the emerging archetypes of molecular …

A long noncoding RNA maintains active chromatin to coordinate homeotic gene expression

…, J Wysocka, M Lei, J Dekker, JA Helms, HY Chang - Nature, 2011 - nature.com
The genome is extensively transcribed into long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs),
many of which are implicated in gene silencing 1 , 2 . Potential roles of lincRNAs in gene …

[HTML][HTML] Functional demarcation of active and silent chromatin domains in human HOX loci by noncoding RNAs

…, JA Helms, PJ Farnham, E Segal, HY Chang - cell, 2007 - cell.com
Noncoding RNAs (ncRNA) participate in epigenetic regulation but are poorly understood.
Here we characterize the transcriptional landscape of the four human HOX loci at five base …
