Sequencing of the sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) genome provides insights into vertebrate evolution

J. Joshua Smith, +59 more
- 01 Apr 2013 - 
TL;DR: Analyses of the assembly indicate that two whole-genome duplications likely occurred before the divergence of ancestral lamprey and gnathostome lineages, and help define key evolutionary events within vertebrate lineages.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Mll2 branch of the COMPASS family regulates bivalent promoters in mouse embryonic stem cells.

TL;DR: The identification of the Mll2 complex as the COMPASS family member responsible for H3K4me3 marking bivalently marked promoters in embryonic stem cells provides an opportunity to reevaluate and experimentally test models for the function of bivalency in the embryonic stem cell state and in differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

SR proteins control a complex network of RNA-processing events

TL;DR: Regulation of AS by the SR proteins is the result of combinatorial regulation by multiple SR protein family members on most endogenous targets, and SR proteins have a broader role in integrating multiple layers of gene expression regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantifying Nucleation In Vivo Reveals the Physical Basis of Prion-like Phase Behavior

TL;DR: It is shown that kinetic barriers limit the nucleation of ordered self-assemblies and that the persistence of the barriers with respect to concentration relates to structure, suggesting that nucleation barriers govern cytoplasmic inheritance, subcellular organization, and proteotoxicity.
