Latest from the lab! Led by @XueningHe922, establishing a framework for interpretation of the motif syntax of regulatory elements and a quantitative model for TF cooperativity. Plenty of cool stuff revealed, including TF redundancy and synergy, and their regulatory roles!

[Xuening He @XueningHe922]

Excited to share DeepCompARE + ISA - a lightweight deep learning model + efficient interpretation method, to uncover rules of TF cooperativity via genome-wide in silico motif ablations!

Check out our latest work, scE2G, for mapping the target genes of enhancers from single cell data! https://t.co/dz16ahux8O. See 🧵 below for highlights

Amazing work led by co-first authors @mayayayas and @613weilin in a great collaboration with @jengreitz 's lab

[Wei-Lin Qiu @613weilin]

Excited to share our latest preprint on scE2G – a new model to link enhancers to target genes using single-cell data – with state-of-the-art performance across multiple perturbation benchmarks.

Very proud—4 years in the making, huge team effort.

This is a paper where the author list cannot convey everyone's incredible contributions.
