Research Interests
Based on high throughput DNA sequencing platforms and bioinformatic technologies, we investigate genetic variation, epigenetic regulation of gene expression, and their implications in biological phenotypes, such as cancer, stem cell differentiation, aging, and neuron diseases, etc.
- Epigenetic: nucleosome and chromatin structure, DNA methylation, histone modifications, transcription factors, and DNA repair proteins.
- Gene expression: RNA transcription, splicing, translation (Ribo-Seq); LINC RNA, small RNA, RNA editing, etc.
- Genetics: SNP, indel, translocation, copy number variation, etc.
Software development
- DANPOS: a software for Dyanmic Analysis of Nucleosome and Protein Occupancy by Sequencing.
