RBM25 exhibits distinct RNA- and chromatin-associated target programs in human embryonic stem cells

RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are increasingly recognized to perform chromatin-associated functions in addition to their canonical roles in RNA regulation, yet how these activities are coordinated in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) remain poorly understood. Here, we characterize distinct RNA- and chromatin-associated...

DPF3a couples H3K36me2-dependent chromatin remodeling to genome architecture during myogenesis

The findings uncover a non-canonical mechanism whereby a chromatin remodeler regulates transcription primarily through three-dimensional genome organization rather than local accessibility control, and establish histone modification-guided chromatin remodeling as a key principle in gene regulation.

Site-specific programming characterizes dynamic post-translational acetylation of histone H2B lysine 108 in mouse embryonic stem cells

Dynamic histone modifications are critical for regulating stem cell fate. However, generalized strategies for site-specific programming of histone modifications profiling on unperturbed chromatin in embryonic stem cells (ESCs) remain challenging. In this study, we established a genetic code expansion-based platform in...

Multi-omic long-read sequencing reveals nucleosome control of transcriptional fidelity at the isoform level

Transcription and RNA processing are tightly coupled to chromatin organization, yet how nucleosome positioning is coordinated across the promoter and gene body to shape alternative isoform expression remains poorly understood. This question has been difficult to address because short-read chromatin profiling cannot sim...

HisTrader identifies nucleosome-free regions within ChIP-based profiling of histone post-translational modifications.

HisTrader is presented, a computational approach that identifies nucleosome-free regions (NFRs) within ChIP-based profiling of histone modification peaks, which reduces the target sequence length for motif discovery and genetic variant prioritization.
