  • Transcription factors and closed/activated/repressed chromatin

    Is it possible for a TF to bind to closed chromatin without opening it? I mean, is it possible for chip-seq peaks of non-pioneer TFs to exist in closed chromatin?

    If it is, can we assume that TF does not affect the gene expression of the corresponding gene?

    Chromatin activation marks contributing to change in gene expression, like H3K4me3, show up in the sequence of the gene or are they in the TF binding site?

    Do chromatin activation marks correspond to gene expression activation or does it just mean chromatin is available to bind TFs and depending if the TF is repressor or activator, gene expression decreases or increases?

    Thanks on advance

    Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
    by seqadmin


    Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

    Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
    by seqadmin


    Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
