Short-chain fatty acids influence gene regulation and chromatin accessibility, highlighting their role in colorectal cancer ...

The basic repeating structural (and functional) unit of chromatin is the nucleosome, which contains eight histone proteins and about 146 base pairs of DNA (Van Holde, 1988; Wolffe, 1999).

Chromatin is a flexibly joined chain of nucleosomes that exists inside the nucleus of eukaryotic cells and has been described as a 'bead on a string'. Chromatin organization strengthens DNA for ...

New research from the Center for Physical Genomics and Engineering uncovers how 3D genome structures generate cellular memories, paving the way for advances in medicine and longevity through cellular ...

In eukaryotes, genomic DNA is stored in the nucleus as nucleosomes, interacting with a set of proteins, forming a molecular complex called chromatin. The proper folding of the chromatin structure ...

In a groundbreaking study, scientists have discovered a way to manipulate the very fabric of life by using light to reshape ...

DNA has to be carefully packaged and organized in cells so it will both physically fit into the nucleus, but will also remain ...

We specialize in high throughput top down liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. This allows us to study chromatin biology with proteoform level specificity and observe quantitative changes to ...

Although epigenetic phenomena have been observed for over a century, researchers have only started to untangle their underlying mechanism and effects on gene expression. This course provides and ...
