Chromatin remodeling plays a vital role in gene regulation, affecting how DNA is accessed. Disruptions in this process can also lead to cancer and other diseases. To better understand how chromatin ...
BRCA1 is a tumor-suppressor gene linked to familial breast and ovarian cancers. In the July 21 Cell, Bochar et al. find that the predominant BRCA1-containing complex in human cells is the ...
Chromatin remodelers are ATP-dependent motor proteins that dynamically reorganize chromatin architecture, playing essential roles in gene expression, development, and immune function. Dysregulation of ...
As many as 1 in 4 cancers are driven by mutations in the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex, which controls access to DNA. A study led by St. Jude Children's Research Hospital recently identified ...
Experiencing multiple acute stresses at the same time, as in natural disasters or mass shootings, can leave lasting memory scars. New research from the University of California, Irvine suggests that ...
The field of plant epigenetics is increasingly recognized for its crucial role in mediating plant responses to diverse environmental stressors intensified ...
Super-enhancers (SEs) are large clusters of transcriptional regulatory elements that drive oncogene expression, maintain malignancy, and create ...
This Brush Up is sponsored by Cayman Chemical. Learn more about chemical inhibitors of histone modification. Histone modification affects how tightly DNA wraps around histone proteins, yielding ...
Research published in Cell Research from Mario Halic, PhD, St. Jude Department of Structural Biology, revealed 13 distinct structures of the chromatin remodeler SNF2H offering a comprehensive view the ...
