We report the existence of both methylcytosine and hydroxymethylcytosine in the genomic DNA of the ciliate Oxytricha trifallax during its genome rearrangement process. These modifications are dynamically added, de novo, to sequences targeted for elimination and are not present after the rearrangemen...
ORGANISM(S): Oxytricha trifallax 
For many oncogenes, increased expression resulting from copy number gain confers a selective advantage to cells that consequently make up the tumour bulk. To identify oncogenes of potential biological significance in cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), 36 primary samples and ten cell lines were ...

The goal of this study is to identify likely sites of polycistronic transcription initiation in a kinetoplastid parasite. Peaks in histone H3 acetylations were found to mark these likely sites, with TBP and SNAP50 enriched upstream of these acetylation peaks. Acetylation peaks are greater in rapid...

Transcriptional dysregulation is an early feature of Huntington's disease (HD). We observed gene-specific changes in H3K4me3 at transcriptionally repressed promoters in R6/2 mouse and human HD brain. Genome-wide analysis showed a novel chromatin signature for this mark. Reducing the levels of the H3...

Endoderm cells undergo a sequence of fate choices to generate insulin-secreting M-NM-2 cells. Studies of chromatin transitions during this process have been limited to the pancreatic progenitor stage that can be reconstituted from stem cells in vitro, with a gap in understanding the induction of end...

LID is a histone demethylase acting on H3K4me3, a mark related to transcription and found near the transcription start sites (TSS) of the genes. We analyzed where POLIISER5 and POLIISER2 are localized in LID RNAi mutants. 1 sample for POLIISER5 with an input control, and 1 sample for POLIISER2 with ...

BACKGROUND: Neuroblastoma accounts for 7% of paediatric malignancies but is responsible for 15% of all childhood cancer deaths. Despite rigorous treatment involving chemotherapy, surgery, radiotherapy and immunotherapy, the 5-year overall survival rate of high-risk disease remai...

Methylation of DNA in combination with histone modifications establishes an epigenetic code that ensures the proper control of gene expression. Although DNA methyltransferases have been shown to interact with histone methyltransferases such as EZH2 (which methylates histone H3 on lysine 27) and G9a ...
