Huntington's disease is a genetic disease caused by a single mutation. It is characterised by progressive movement, emotional and cognitive deficits. R6/2 transgenic mice carrying the Huntington's disease mutation have a progressive neurological phenotype, including deterioration in cognitive functi...

DNA methylation is a defining feature of mammalian cellular identity and is essential for normal development. Most cell types, except germ cells and pre-implantation embryos, display relatively stable DNA methylation patterns, with 70-80% of all CpGs being methylated. Despite recent advances we stil...

The study involves a single consanguineous Palestinian family with Hereditary Spastic Paraparesis (HSP). The affected individuals suffer from spasticity of the lower limbs and abnormal gait. Using exome sequencing and homozygosity mapping, our analysis implicated the causative mutation in the mot...

During development and differentiation, enhancers, and not promoters are most dynamic in their DNA methylation status. However, the causal relationship between enhancer activity and methylation is not clear. Here, we describe that during early zebrafish development, enhancer activity has little infl...
