Minireview: applications of next-generation sequencing on studies of nuclear receptor regulation and function

Clifford A Meyer et al. Mol Endocrinol. 2012 Oct.

Abstract

Next-generation sequencing technologies have expanded the experimental possibilities for studying the genome-wide regulation of transcription by nuclear receptors, their collaborating transcription factors, and coregulators. These technologies allow investigators to obtain abundance and DNA sequence information in a single experiment. In this review, we highlight proven and potential uses of next-generation sequencing in the study of gene regulation by nuclear receptors. We also provide suggestions on how to effectively leverage this technology in a collaborative environment.
