(1/13) Excited to share the outcome of the IBIS Challenge! The IBIS challenge united dozens of teams across the world in tackling the problem of modeling transcription factor (TF) binding specificity using a diverse collection of experimental datasets for understudied human TFs.

Our paper on LARGE-scale benchmarking of motif discovery tools is published! nature.com/articles/s42...
It was a long, 7 years long journey, which coordinated efforts of 50+ researchers, proud to be on of them.
More results from Codebook about poorly studied TFs are coming soon.

(1/15) Yet another sweet bioinformatics "software+database" couple from our team:
Meet MIXALIME, a framework for assessing allelic imbalance, and UDACHA, a database of allele-specific chromatin accessibility, read more at www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The first preprint of 2025! Together with Matvei, @halfacrocodile.bsky.social, & our amazing team, we are excited to share PARADE: an AI framework for designing mRNA UTRs with enhanced cell-type specificity & stability. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
A generative framework for enhanced cell-type specificity in rationally designed mRNAs
mRNA delivery offers new opportunities for disease treatment by directing cells to produce therapeutic proteins. However, designing highly stable mRNAs with programmable cell type-specificity remains ...

Perspectives on Codebook: sequence specificity of uncharacterized human transcription factors
We describe an effort (“Codebook”) to determine the sequence specificity of 332 putative and largely uncharacterized human transcription factors (TFs), as well as 61 control TFs. Nearly 5,000 independ...

(1/8) 🚀 Excited to share our findings on a large-scale ChIP-seq assay for 166 previously uncharacterized human transcription factors (TFs) and their roles in both regulatory regions, and more strikingly, the “dark matter” genome. 🌌 doi.org/10.1101/2024....
Extensive binding of uncharacterized human transcription factors to genomic dark matter
Most of the human genome is thought to be non-functional, and includes large segments often referred to as “dark matter” DNA. The genome also encodes hundreds of putative and poorly characterized tran...
