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

Polycomb complexes act redundantly to repress genomic repeats and genes

TL;DR: It is found that genomic repeats are Polycomb targets and show that, in the absence of Polycomb complexes, endogenous murine leukemia virus elements can mobilize, indicating a contribution of the Polycomb group system to the defense against parasitic DNA, and a potential role of genomic repeats in Polycomb-mediated gene regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Derivation of haploid embryonic stem cells from mouse embryos

TL;DR: Haploid mouse embryonic stem cells are described and their application in forward genetic screening is shown.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antibiotics: a shot in the arm.

- 20 Oct 2004 - 
TL;DR: The world's antibiotics are failing and drug companies have all but stopped developing new ones, so one plan to avert the crisis is examined.
