COMMENTS
Any distribution of signs across A000111 defines a sequence with a different binomial transform. For example, the sign pattern +--++--++--... applied to A000111 leads to A217714, and this sequence here is constructed with the sign pattern --++--++--++... .
From another point of view, we can start from this sequence, build the array of successive differences, and can read the signed variant of A000111 off the left column:
-1, -2, -2, 1, 4, -17, -62, ...
-1, 0, 3, 3, -21, -45, ...
1, 3, 0, -24, -24, ...
2, -3, -24, 0, ...
-5, -21, 24, ...
-16, 45, ...
61, ...
See the array in A163747.
The unit digits in the sequence of absolute values enter a periodic sequence 2, 1, 4, 7, 2, 1, 4, 7, ... (period 4).

FORMULA
a(n) = A163747(n) - 1.
E.g.f.: exp(x)*(1-exp(2*x)-2*exp(x))/(1+exp(2*x)). - Philippe Deléham, Apr 01 2013
a(n) ~ n! * 2^(n+2)/Pi^(n+1) * (cos(Pi*n/2)-sin(Pi*n/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Sep 24 2013
a(n) = (A122045(n) - 2^n(2*EulerE(n,1) + EulerE(n,3/2)))/2, where EulerE(n,x) is the n-th Euler polynomial. - Benedict W. J. Irwin, May 24 2016
