[HTML][HTML] Mapping the temporal and spatial dynamics of the human endometrium in vivo and in vitro

L Garcia-Alonso, LF Handfield, K Roberts… - Nature …, 2021 - nature.com
The endometrium, the mucosal lining of the uterus, undergoes dynamic changes throughout
the menstrual cycle in response to ovarian hormones. We have generated dense single-cell …

Benchmark and integration of resources for the estimation of human transcription factor activities

L Garcia-Alonso, CH Holland, MM Ibrahim… - Genome …, 2019 - genome.cshlp.org
The prediction of transcription factor (TF) activities from the gene expression of their targets (ie,
TF regulon) is becoming a widely used approach to characterize the functional status of …

[HTML][HTML] Single-cell roadmap of human gonadal development

L Garcia-Alonso, V Lorenzi, CI Mazzeo… - Nature, 2022 - nature.com
Gonadal development is a complex process that involves sex determination followed by
divergent maturation into either testes or ovaries 1 . Historically, limited tissue accessibility, a …

[HTML][HTML] Spatial multiomics map of trophoblast development in early pregnancy

…, FCK Wong, MA Sheridan, I Kats, L Garcia-Alonso… - Nature, 2023 - nature.com
The relationship between the human placenta—the extraembryonic organ made by the fetus,
and the decidua—the mucosal layer of the uterus, is essential to nurture and protect the …

The functional landscape of the human phosphoproteome

…, A Mateus, AA Kleefeldt, A Hill, L Garcia-Alonso… - Nature …, 2020 - nature.com
Protein phosphorylation is a key post-translational modification regulating protein function
in almost all cellular processes. Although tens of thousands of phosphorylation sites have …

Transcription factor activities enhance markers of drug sensitivity in cancer

L Garcia-Alonso, F Iorio, A Matchan, N Fonseca… - Cancer research, 2018 - AACR
Transcriptional dysregulation induced by aberrant transcription factors (TF) is a key feature
of cancer, but its global influence on drug sensitivity has not been examined. Here, we infer …

for the functional analysis of gene expression and genomic data. Here we present its fifth …

[HTML][HTML] Widespread post-transcriptional attenuation of genomic copy-number variation in cancer

E Gonçalves, A Fragoulis, L Garcia-Alonso, T Cramer… - Cell systems, 2017 - cell.com
Copy-number variations (CNVs) are ubiquitous in cancer and often act as driver events, but
the effects of CNVs on the proteome of tumors are poorly understood. Here, we analyze …

PTMcode v2: a resource for functional associations of post-translational modifications within and between proteins

…, I Letunic, L Parca, L Garcia-Alonso… - Nucleic acids …, 2015 - academic.oup.com
The post-translational regulation of proteins is mainly driven by two molecular events, their
modification by several types of moieties and their interaction with other proteins. These two …
