  3. Content type: Review

    A major shift in our understanding of genome regulation has emerged recently. It is now apparent that the majority of cellular transcripts do not code for proteins, and many of them are long noncoding RNAs (ln...

  5. Content type: Review

    RNA contains over 150 types of chemical modifications. Although many of these chemical modifications were discovered several decades ago, their functions were not immediately apparent. Discoveries of RNA demet...

    Citation: Genome Biology 2017 18:197

    Published on:

  6. Content type: Review

    Alignment-free sequence analyses have been applied to problems ranging from whole-genome phylogeny to the classification of protein families, identification of horizontally transferred genes, and detection of ...

    Citation: Genome Biology 2017 18:186

    Published on:

  8. Content type: Review

    Studies on genetic–epigenetic interactions, including the mapping of methylation quantitative trait loci (mQTLs) and haplotype-dependent allele-specific DNA methylation (hap-ASM), have become a major focus in ...

    Authors: Catherine Do, Alyssa Shearer, Masako Suzuki, Mary Beth Terry, Joel Gelernter, John M. Greally and Benjamin Tycko

    Citation: Genome Biology 2017 18:120

    Published on:

  11. Content type: Review

    High-throughput technologies have revolutionized medical research. The advent of genotyping arrays enabled large-scale genome-wide association studies and methods for examining global transcript levels, which ...

    Authors: Yehudit Hasin, Marcus Seldin and Aldons Lusis

    Citation: Genome Biology 2017 18:83

    Published on:

  14. Content type: Review

    High-throughput assays for measuring the three-dimensional (3D) configuration of DNA have provided unprecedented insights into the relationship between DNA 3D configuration and function. Data interpretation fr...

    Citation: Genome Biology 2017 18:26

    Published on:

  15. Content type: Review

    Despite major progress in dissecting the molecular pathways that control DNA methylation patterns in plants, little is known about the mechanisms that shape plant methylomes over evolutionary time. Drawing on ...

    The Erratum to this article has been published in Genome Biology 2017 18:41

  18. Content type: Review

    Many factors affect the microbiomes of humans, mice, and other mammals, but substantial challenges remain in determining which of these factors are of practical importance. Considering the relative effect size...

    Authors: Justine Debelius, Se Jin Song, Yoshiki Vazquez-Baeza, Zhenjiang Zech Xu, Antonio Gonzalez and Rob Knight

    Citation: Genome Biology 2016 17:217

  19. Content type: Review

    Chromosome conformation capture (3C)-based techniques have revolutionized the field of nuclear organization, partly replacing DNA FISH as the method of choice for studying three-dimensional chromosome architec...

    Authors: Luca Giorgetti and Edith Heard

    Citation: Genome Biology 2016 17:215

    Published on:

  20. Content type: Review

    We are entering an era of epigenome engineering. The precision manipulation of chromatin and epigenetic modifications provides new ways to interrogate their influence on genome and cell function and to harness...

    Authors: Minhee Park, Albert J. Keung and Ahmad S. Khalil

    Citation: Genome Biology 2016 17:183

    Published on:

  22. Content type: Review

    Transposable elements (TEs) are notable drivers of genetic innovation. Over evolutionary time, TE insertions can supply new promoter, enhancer, and insulator elements to protein-coding genes and establish nove...
