Journal ArticleDOI

A comprehensive catalog of human KRAB-associated zinc finger genes: Insights into the evolutionary history of a large family of transcriptional repressors

TL;DR: Comparisons between the human genes and ZNF loci mined from the draft mouse, dog, and chimpanzee genomes identified 103 KRAB-ZNF genes that are conserved in mammals but also highlighted a substantial level of lineage-specific change.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methylation-sensitive binding of transcription factor YY1 to an insulator sequence within the paternally expressed imprinted gene, Peg3

TL;DR: This study is the first report demonstrating the involvement of YY1 in methylation-sensitive insulator activity and suggests a potential role of this highly conserved protein in mammalian genomic imprinting.
Journal ArticleDOI

AEBP2 as a potential targeting protein for Polycomb Repression Complex PRC2

TL;DR: This study characterized this unknown protein and tested its potential targeting roles for the mammalian Polycomb Repression Complex 2 (PRC2), suggesting that AEBP2 is most likely a targeting protein for the mammal PRC2 complex.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rodent BC1 RNA gene as a master gene for ID element amplification

TL;DR: Comparison of consensus sequences of each rodent ID with its corresponding BC1 RNA gene showed that the variations ofBC1 RNA within rodents corresponded to specific changes within the ID consensus sequence for each rodent species, supporting the hypothesis that the BC1 gene is a master gene responsible for the amplification and evolution of ID elements.
