The immunoglobulin heavy-chain (Igh) locus undergoes large-scale contraction in pro-B cells, which facilitates VH-DJH recombination by juxtaposing distal VH genes next to the DJH- rearranged gene segment in the proximal Igh domain. By high-resolution mapping of long-range interactions, we now demons...
The SCH9 null strain has smaller cell size, grows at a slower rate and survives three times longer than wide-type yeast. This study aims to dissect the mechanisms that lead to the yeast life span extension of sch9-delta. We measure gene expression profiles of the S. cerevisiae wild type and the lon...
Canonical microRNAs (miRNAs) require two processing steps: the first by the Microprocessor, a complex of DGCR8 and Drosha, and the second by Dicer. dgcr8delta/delta mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) have less severe phenotypes than dicer1delta/delta mESCs, suggesting a physiological role for Microp...
We have used RNA-seq to examine gene expression from paired human CRC/control mucosa samples and identified CRC-specific expressed long noncoding RNAs To identify CRC-specific expressed genes, including long noncoding RNAs
