Our long-term research goal is to understand and predict gene regulation based on DNA sequence information and genome-wide experimental data.
We are pleased to announce a new preprint by @mlweilert.bsky.social: “Widespread low-affinity motifs enhance chromatin accessibility and regulatory potential in mESCs” (www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...). See summary and longer recap below:

(TLDR; low-affinity motifs matter as pioneers!)
Widespread low-affinity motifs enhance chromatin accessibility and regulatory potential in mESCs
Low-affinity transcription factor (TF) motifs are an important element of the cis-regulatory code, yet they are notoriously difficult to map and mechanistically incompletely understood, limiting our a...
