Journal ArticleDOI

Disruption of DNA methylation-dependent long gene repression in Rett syndrome

TL;DR: A genome-wide length-dependent increase in gene expression is identified in MeCP2 mutant mouse models and human RTT brains, and it is found that long genes as a population are enriched for neuronal functions and selectively expressed in the brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Npas4 Regulates Excitatory-Inhibitory Balance within Neural Circuits through Cell-Type-Specific Gene Programs

TL;DR: These findings suggest that the functional outcomes of activity-induced transcriptional responses are adapted in a cell-type-specific manner to achieve a circuit-wide homeostatic response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional genomic analysis of RNA interference in C. elegans

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that some of these genes are also required for germline and somatic transgene silencing, and the physical interactions among these potential RNAi factors suggest links to other RNA-dependent gene regulatory pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide activity-dependent MeCP2 phosphorylation regulates nervous system development and function

TL;DR: It is shown here that disruption of MeCP2 S421 phosphorylation in vivo results in defects in synapse development and behavior, implicating activity-dependent regulation of Me CP2 in brain development and RTT.
