ChIP-nexus enables improved detection of in vivo transcription factor binding footprints

Q He, J Johnston, J Zeitlinger - Nature biotechnology, 2015 - nature.com
Understanding how eukaryotic enhancers are bound and regulated by specific combinations
of transcription factors is still a major challenge. To better map transcription factor binding …

Zelda overcomes the high intrinsic nucleosome barrier at enhancers during Drosophila zygotic genome activation

Y Sun, CY Nien, K Chen, HY Liu, J Johnston… - Genome …, 2015 - genome.cshlp.org
The Drosophila genome activator Vielfaltig (Vfl), also known as Zelda (Zld), is thought to
prime enhancers for activation by patterning transcription factors (TFs). Such priming is …

A global change in RNA polymerase II pausing during the Drosophila midblastula transition

K Chen, J Johnston, W Shao, S Meier, C Staber… - Elife, 2013 - elifesciences.org
10.7554/eLife.00861.001 Massive zygotic transcription begins in many organisms during the
midblastula transition when the cell cycle of the dividing egg slows down. A few genes are …

A case study in biomimetic total synthesis: polyolefin carbocyclizations to terpenes and steroids

RA Yoder, JN Johnston - Chemical reviews, 2005 - ACS Publications
Without exception, the most complex organic architectures have been produced by natural
organisms. The finding that many of these can be both selective and potent disruptors of …

…, HA Schneier, CB Kurtz, JM Johnston - Official journal of the …, 2012 - journals.lww.com
OBJECTIVES: Linaclotide is a minimally absorbed guanylate cyclase-C agonist. The objective
of this trial was to determine the efficacy and safety of linaclotide in patients with irritable …

Chiral proton catalysis: a catalytic enantioselective direct aza-Henry reaction

BM Nugent, RA Yoder, JN Johnston - Journal of the American …, 2004 - ACS Publications
Despite Nature's longstanding ability to use a proton, the most prevalent Lewis acid, to both
activate and orient a substrate during an enantioselective reaction, this work represents the …

[HTML][HTML] Two randomized trials of linaclotide for chronic constipation

…, P Eng, SM Fox, JM Johnston - … England Journal of …, 2011 - Mass Medical Soc
Background Linaclotide is a minimally absorbed peptide agonist of the guanylate cyclase C
receptor. In two trials, we aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of linaclotide in patients …

High conservation of transcription factor binding and evidence for combinatorial regulation across six Drosophila species

Q He, AF Bardet, B Patton, J Purvis, J Johnston… - Nature …, 2011 - nature.com
The binding of some transcription factors has been shown to diverge substantially between
closely related species. Here we show that the binding of the developmental transcription …
