Molecular analyses and unbiased CRISPR screens reveal that extensive end resection occurs in quiescent cells after inducing DNA double strand breaks, in a manner dependent on DNA-PK.

RNAseq profiles of female Aedes body parts, gut regions, and blood-fed guts provide insight into the anatomical patterning of immune and digestive function, and demonstrate the sequential induction of multiple peptidase cohorts over the course of blood meal digestion.

Cohesin is required for the expression of neuronal genes that engage in long chromatin loops, while short-range enhancer-promoter loops can form in the absence of cohesin.

Inositol polyphosphate multikinase physically binds to the core subunits of SWI/SNF complex and plays an important role in regulating BRG1 occupancy and BRG-mediated chromatin accessibility in mouse embryonic stem cells.

Gene regulation by C/EBPβ determines how surplus of dietary fat is stored, which has consequences for metabolic health.

In the context of SARS-CoV-2 infection, Nsp14 alters gene expression of the host cell through the interaction with the cellular enzyme IMPDH2.

Age-dependent changes in DNA methylation are tightly coupled to the metabolic state, and is partly under genetic regulation, and longer lifespan is associated with lower epigenetic entropy at CpGs that increase in methylation with age.

Spermidine-mediated superoxide generation affects iron homeostasis in Escherichia coli.

In addition to a neural crest cell specific role, AP-2α and AP-2ß cooperatively promote craniofacial development through regulating chromatin and gene expression dynamics in the facial surface ectoderm.

The ACF chromatin-remodeling complex positions the +1 nucleosome in facultative heterochromatin to mediate transcriptional repression at Polycomb target genes.
