Dissecting the genomic activity of a transcriptional regulator by the integrative analysis of omics data
Abstract In the study of genomic regulation, strategies to integrate the data produced by Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)-based technologies in a meaningful ensemble are eagerly awaited and must continuously evolve. Here, we describe an integrative strategy for the analysis of data generated by chr...
