Genetic mechanisms of critical illness in Covid-19.

Erola Pairo-Castineira, +1449 more
- 04 Mar 2021 - 
TL;DR: The GenOMICC (Genetics Of Mortality In Critical Care) genome-wide association study in 2244 critically ill Covid-19 patients from 208 UK intensive care units is reported, finding evidence in support of a causal link from low expression of IFNAR2, and high expression of TYK2, to life-threatening disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ring1B Compacts Chromatin Structure and Represses Gene Expression Independent of Histone Ubiquitination

TL;DR: It is suggested that Ring1B-mediated chromatin compaction acts to directly limit transcription in vivo and to restore a compact chromatin state and to repress Hox gene expression is not dependent on its histone ubiquitination activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Promoting coherent minimum reporting guidelines for biological and biomedical investigations: the MIBBI project

Chris F. Taylor, +58 more
- 01 Aug 2008 - 
TL;DR: The Minimum Information for Biological and Biomedical Investigations (MIBBI) project aims to foster the coordinated development of minimum-information checklists and provide a resource for those exploring the range of extant checklists.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enzymatic removal of ribonucleotides from DNA is essential for Mammalian genome integrity and development

TL;DR: It is reported that RNase H2 is an essential enzyme in mice, required for embryonic growth from gastrulation onward, and it is demonstrated that ribonucleotides are the most commonly occurring endogenous nucleotide base lesion in replicating cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Psip1/Ledgf p52 Binds Methylated Histone H3K36 and Splicing Factors and Contributes to the Regulation of Alternative Splicing

TL;DR: The PWWP domain of the chromatin-associated protein Psip1/Ledgf can specifically recognize tri-methylated H3K36 and that, like this histone modification, thePsip1 short (p52) isoform is enriched at active genes.
