Cell-type specificity of ChIP-predicted transcription factor binding sites
Håndstad, Tony; Rye, Morten Beck; Mocnik, Rok; Drabløs, Finn; Sætrom, Pål (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Background Context-dependent transcription factor (TF) binding is one reason for differences in gene expression patterns between different cellular states. Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing ... -
Cholesterol synthesis pathway genes in prostate cancer are transcriptionally downregulated when tissue confounding is minimized

Chromatin states reveal functional associations for globally defined transcription start sites in four human cell lines
Rye, Morten Beck; Sandve, Geir Kjetil F.; Daub, Carsten O; Kawaji, H; Carninci, P; Forrest, A; Drabløs, Finn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Background Deciphering the most common modes by which chromatin regulates transcription, and how this is related to cellular status and processes is an important task for improving our understanding of human cellular ... -
Clustered ChIP-Seq-defined transcription factor binding sites and histone modifications map distinct classes of regulatory elements
Rye, Morten Beck; Sætrom, Pål; Håndstad, Tony; Drabløs, Finn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Background Transcription factor binding to DNA requires both an appropriate binding element and suitably open chromatin, which together help to define regulatory elements within the genome. Current methods of identifying ... -
