Integrating systems biology data to yield functional genomics insights.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Retroviral elements are pervasively transcribed and dynamically regulated during development. While multiple histone- and DNA-modifying enzymes have broadly been associated with their global silencing, little is known about how the many diverse retroviral families are each selectively recognized. RESULTS:He...
