Histones are a family of basic proteins that associate with DNA in the nucleus and help condense it into chromatin. Nuclear DNA does not appear in free linear strands; it is highly condensed and ...

"Our findings emphasize that the brain's internal clock is influenced by chemical monoamine neurotransmitters in a manner not ...

The finding, published Dec. 20 in Plant Cell, was co-authored by Cornell researchers and colleagues from the University of California, Davis, and Shandong Agricultural University in Shandong ...

Histones not only keep DNA organized, but also help regulate gene expression. How? Scientists are using ChIP and PCR to find out. To examine changes in histone modification during blood cell ...

Cell proteins called linker histones were discovered in the late 1800s. They have been known to influence genetic expression by, for example, providing structure, organization and folding of DNA, but ...

A collaborative effort between Mount Sinai and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center has shed valuable light on how ...

The mechanism of a peculiar type of heterochromatin, used by embryonic stem cells to silence 'parasitic' DNA-elements within the context of their highly dynamic pluripotent chromatin. Disclaimer ...

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 ...
