A/B compartments are observed in Hi-C data and coincide with eu/hetero-chromatin. However, many genomic regions are ambiguous under A/B compartment scheme. We develop MOSAIC (MOdularity and Singular vAlue decomposition-based Identification of Compartments), an accurate compartmental state detection scheme.

ATAD3A is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial enzyme contributing to mitochondrial dynamics, cholesterol metabolism, and signal transduction. However, its impact and underlying regulatory mechanisms in cancers remain ill-defined.

We identified a kinase and phosphatase interaction (KPI) network of 1844 interactions in budding yeast by mass spectrometric analysis of protein complexes. The KPI network contained many dense local regions of interactions that suggested new functions.

The map is estimated to capture untyped common variation with an average maximum r2 of between 0.
