QDMR:Quantitative Differentially Methylated Region
   
About Us

 

Group of Computational Epigenetic Research(GCER), is interested in the mechanisms of epigenetics in the processes of development and deseases. Our project team is focusing on combining bioinformatic idea, methodology and tools to ensemble-based epigenomic researches. The computational epigenetic studies in our lab cover several domains, including the development and improvement of algorithms, software development, software platform construction, database development and the functional interpretation of genetic and epigenetic mechanism. The research contents cover the following domains:
  • The prediction of CpG islands
  • The prediction of the methylation patterns of CpG islands
  • Analysis of the differential methylation patterns
  • The combinatorial relationship among histone modifications and DNA methylation in gene expression
  • The epigenetic mechanism of ES cell development
  • The recognition of genomic imprinting and their association of diseases
  • The epigenomics of cancer
  • The construction of web service and databases
  • The interpretation of the structure and function of nucleosome in genomic scale
  • DNA methylation prediction in mammals
