Journal ArticleDOI

Initial sequencing and analysis of the human genome.

Eric S. Lander, +248 more
- 15 Feb 2001 - 
TL;DR: The results of an international collaboration to produce and make freely available a draft sequence of the human genome are reported and an initial analysis is presented, describing some of the insights that can be gleaned from the sequence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conversion of 5-Methylcytosine to 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine in Mammalian DNA by MLL Partner TET1

TL;DR: It is shown here that TET1, a fusion partner of the MLL gene in acute myeloid leukemia, is a 2-oxoglutarate (2OG)- and Fe(II)-dependent enzyme that catalyzes conversion of 5mC to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (hmC) in cultured cells and in vitro.
Journal ArticleDOI

AAA+: A Class of Chaperone-Like ATPases Associated with the Assembly, Operation, and Disassembly of Protein Complexes

TL;DR: Whole-genome analysis indicates that this class of proteins is ancient and has undergone considerable functional divergence prior to the emergence of the major divisions of life.
Journal ArticleDOI

De-ubiquitination and ubiquitin ligase domains of A20 downregulate NF-κB signalling

TL;DR: A novel ubiquitin ligase domain is defined and two sequential mechanisms by which A20 downregulates NF-κB signalling are identified, both of which participate in mediating a distinct regulatory effect.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome Sequence of an Obligate Intracellular Pathogen of Humans: Chlamydia trachomatis

TL;DR: The phylogenetic mosaic of chlamydial genes, including a large number of genes with phylogenetic origins from eukaryotes, implies a complex evolution for adaptation to obligate intracellular parasitism.
