SCENIC: single-cell regulatory network inference and clustering

…, J Aerts, J Van Den Oord, ZK Atak, J Wouters, S Aerts - Nature …, 2017 - nature.com
We present SCENIC, a computational method for simultaneous gene regulatory network
reconstruction and cell-state identification from single-cell RNA-seq data (http://scenic. aertslab. …

Origins and functional impact of copy number variation in the human genome

…, R Redon, L Feuk, O Gokcumen, Y Zhang, J Aerts… - Nature, 2010 - nature.com
Structural variations of DNA greater than 1 kilobase in size account for most bases that vary
among human genomes, but are still relatively under-ascertained. Here we use tiling …

The genome sequence of taurine cattle: a window to ruminant biology and evolution

…, CM Dickens, JGR Gilbert, DE Hagen, H Salih, J Aerts… - Science, 2009 - science.org
To understand the biology and evolution of ruminants, the cattle genome was sequenced to
about sevenfold coverage. The cattle genome contains a minimum of 22,000 genes, with a …

Genome-wide survey of SNP variation uncovers the genetic structure of cattle breeds

…, B Murdoch, A Stella, R Villa-Angulo, M Wright, J Aerts… - Science, 2009 - science.org
The imprints of domestication and breed development on the genomes of livestock likely differ
from those of companion animals. A deep draft sequence assembly of shotgun reads from …

Using graph theory to analyze biological networks

…, CN Moschopoulos, TG Soldatos, S Kossida, J Aerts… - BioData mining, 2011 - Springer
Understanding complex systems often requires a bottom-up analysis towards a systems
biology approach. The need to investigate a system, not only as individual components but as a …

Promoting coherent minimum reporting guidelines for biological and biomedical investigations: the MIBBI project

to foster the coordinated development of minimum-information checklists and provide a …

GRNBoost2 and Arboreto: efficient and scalable inference of gene regulatory networks

…, J Simm, Y Moreau, J Aerts, S Aerts - …, 2019 - academic.oup.com
Inferring a Gene Regulatory Network (GRN) from gene expression data is a computationally
expensive task, exacerbated by increasing data sizes due to advances in high-throughput …

Whole genome linkage disequilibrium maps in cattle

…, RD Schnabel, BM Murdoch, LK Matukumalli, J Aerts… - BMC genetics, 2007 - Springer
Background Bovine whole genome linkage disequilibrium maps were constructed for eight
breeds of cattle. These data provide fundamental information concerning bovine genome …

CEP152 is a genome maintenance protein disrupted in Seckel syndrome

…, S Kul, M Ikbal, DJ Turner, MS Taylor, J Aerts… - Nature …, 2011 - nature.com
Functional impairment of DNA damage response pathways leads to increased genomic
instability. Here we describe the centrosomal protein CEP152 as a new regulator of genomic …
