The architecture of interphase chromosomes is important for the regulation of gene
expression and genome maintenance. Chromosomes are linearly segmented into hundreds …

The smallest viable unit of life is the cell. From bacteria to mammals, all cells use the same
nucleic acid-based universal code for the maintenance and inheritance of genetic …

The c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) is activated when cells are exposed to ultraviolet (UV)
radiation. However, the functional consequence of JNK activation in UV-irradiated cells has …

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) has been detected in the nucleus in many tissues
and cell lines. However, the potential functions of nuclear EGFR have largely been …

The development of a germinating embryo into an autotrophic seedling is arrested under
conditions of water deficit. This ABA‐mediated developmental checkpoint requires the bZIP …

Genome-wide location analysis, also known as ChIP-Chip, combines chromatin
immunoprecipitation and DNA microarray analysis to identify protein-DNA interactions that …

Abstract The Polycomb group (PcG) genes are required for maintenance of homeotic gene
repression during development. Mutations in these genes can be suppressed by mutations …

The Third Edition of Chromatin: Structure and Function brings the reader up-to-date with the
remarkable progress in chromatin research over the past three years. It has been …

Proteins interact with genomic DNA to bring the genome to life; and these interactions also
define many functional features of the genome. SBF and MBF are sequence-specific …

Lymphocyte activation is accompanied by visible changes in chromatin structure. We find
that antigen receptor signaling induces the rapid association of the BAF complex with …
