Biology of Hox Genes: Questions and Technological Challenges.

Hox genes are crucial in determining segmentation identity in developing embryos, which ultimately sets an anteroposterior body axis. Over a century of research has discovered the fundamentals of the Hox gene and protein function in animal development and diseases. However, there are still fundamental questions about the specificity of HOX function. This chapter discusses many unknowns about Hox genes and how modern technologies can overcome technical limitations. We have also addressed these questions to gain a better understanding of the roles of these genes.

Guidelines to Analyze ChIP-Seq Data: Journey Through QC and Analysis Considerations.

ChIP-Seq is used to study DNA-protein interactions, unraveling chromatin states and gene regulatory properties of transcription factors. ChIP-Seq involves immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing using Next-Generation sequencing approaches. The ENCODE consortium provides extensive guidelines for ChIP-Seq analysis. Meanwhile, appropriate QC metrics and knowledge to interpret outcomes are essential for a good ChIP-Seq experiment. This chapter outlines the various QC metrics and analytical tools for ChIP-Seq analysis to provide a better understanding of the results.
