The paper identifies directional motif pairs that determine TAD boundary compatibility in Drosophila, showing conservation from flies to mammals.

This study shows SPT5 regulates Pol II pausing and elongation differently in early and late Drosophila embryogenesis, affecting gene expression dynamics.

The paper shows that Ldb1 (Chip) is a cofactor of Zelda that bridges to CBP to regulate gene expression during zygotic genome activation in Drosophila.

The paper identifies genetic variants affecting TF binding during Drosophila embryogenesis and uses a CNN to predict functional variants.

The paper identifies genomic features predictive of gene expression variation across individuals and shows these features also predict differential expression under stress in Drosophila and humans.
