A Locally Convoluted Cluster Model for Nucleosome Positioning Signals in Chemical Maps
化学图谱中核小体定位信号的局部卷积簇模型
Nucleosome is the fundamental packing unit of DNA in eukaryotic cells, and its positioning plays a critical role in regulation of gene expression and chromosome functions. Using a recently developed chemical mapping method, nucleosomes can be potentially mapped with an unprecedented single-base-pair resolution. Existence of overlapping nucleosomes due to cell mixture or cell dynamics, however, causes convolution of nucleosome positioning signals. In this paper, we introduce…
