Out now in Molecular Cell! Along with Tan and Mahoney labs, we combine cellular, in vitro, and computational methods to understand how sequence features affect pioneer factor specificity (cofactors play a big role) doi.org/10.1016/j.molcel.202…

Very proud of this highly collaborative paper with the @mahonylab @RemoRohs and Gordân labs in which we explore how ApiAP2 transcription factors with similar DNA binding specificities define their target genes, a ubiquitous challenge in all cells! academic.oup.com/nar/advance…?
