Transgenic mice for in vivo epigenome editing with CRISPR-based systems Published: March, 2021 Abstract:
The discovery, characterization, and adaptation of the RNA-guided clustered regularly interspersed short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)-Cas9 system has greatly increased the ease with which genome and epigenome editing can be performed. Fusion of chr... Read more » Tags AntibodyCRISPR
Unique Patterns of H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 in 2-Cell-like Embryonic StemCells. Published: March, 2021 Abstract:
A small subgroup of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) exhibit molecular features similar to those of two-cell embryos (2C). However, it remains elusive whether 2C-like cells and 2C embryos share similar epigenetic features. Here, we map the genome-wide ... Read more » Tags Antibody
REPROGRAMMING CBX8-PRC1 FUNCTION WITH A POSITIVE ALLOSTERICMODULATOR Published: February, 2021 Abstract:
Canonical targeting of Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1) to repress developmental genes is mediated by cell type-specific, paralogous chromobox (CBX) proteins (CBX2, 4, 6, 7 and 8). Based on their central role in silencing and their misregulati... Read more » Tags Antibody
STAG proteins promote cohesin ring loading at R-loops Published: February, 2021 Abstract:
Most studies of cohesin function consider the Stromalin Antigen (STAG/SA) proteins as core complex members given their ubiquitous interaction with the cohesin ring. Here, we provide functional data to support the notion that the SA subunit is not ... Read more » Tags Antibody
The epigenetic landscape in purified myonuclei from fast and slow muscles Published: February, 2021 Abstract:
Muscle cells have different phenotypes adapted to different usage and can be grossly divided into fast/glycolytic and slow/oxidative types. While most muscles contain a mixture of such fiber types, we aimed at providing a genome-wide analysis of c... Read more » Tags Antibody
Inhibition of HIV-1 gene transcription by KAP1 in myeloid lineage. Published: January, 2021 Abstract:
HIV-1 latency generates reservoirs that prevent viral eradication by the current therapies. To find strategies toward an HIV cure, detailed understandings of the molecular mechanisms underlying establishment and persistence of the reservoirs are n... Read more » Tags Antibody
