An increase in MECP2 dosage impairs neural tube formation. Published: March, 2014 Abstract:
Epigenetic mechanisms are fundamental for shaping the activity of the central nervous system (CNS). Methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MECP2) acts as a bridge between methylated DNA and transcriptional effectors responsible for differentiation programs... Read more » Tags Antibody
Immune evasion by oncogenic proteins of acute myeloid leukemia. Published: March, 2014 Abstract:
PML-RARA and AML1-ETO are important oncogenic fusion proteins that play a central role in transformation to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Whether these fusion proteins render the tumor cells with immune evasion properties is unknown. Here we show ... Read more » Tags Antibody
Principles of nucleation of H3K27 methylation during embryonic development. Published: March, 2014 Abstract:
During embryonic development, maintenance of cell identity and lineage commitment requires the Polycomb-group PRC2 complex, which catalyzes histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3). However, the developmental origins of this regulation are u... Read more » Tags Antibody
