Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic and Coordinated Epigenetic Regulation of Developmental Transitions in the Cardiac Lineage

TL;DR: A novel preactivation chromatin pattern at the promoters of genes associated with heart development and cardiac function is discovered and forms a basis for understanding developmentally regulated chromatin transitions during lineage commitment and the molecular etiology of congenital heart disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

The core of the polycomb repressive complex is compositionally and functionally conserved in flies and humans.

TL;DR: A human Polycomb repressive complex from HeLa cells (hPRC-H) is purified that contains homologues of PcG proteins found in drosophila embryonic PRC1 (dPRC1) and is able to efficiently block remodeling of nucleosomal arrays through a mechanism that does not block the ability of nucleases to access and cleave the arrays.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arsenic Exposure Perturbs the Gut Microbiome and Its Metabolic Profile in Mice: An Integrated Metagenomics and Metabolomics Analysis

TL;DR: These findings may provide novel insights regarding perturbations of the gut microbiome and its functions as a potential new mechanism by which arsenic exposure leads to or exacerbates human diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Single-cell transcriptomic profiling of the aging mouse brain.

TL;DR: A single-cell transcriptomic atlas of the aging mouse brain reveals coordinated and cell-type-specific aging signatures across multiple cell populations, and highlights key molecular processes, including ribosome biogenesis, underlying brain aging.
Journal ArticleDOI

H2AZ is enriched at polycomb complex target genes in ES cells and is necessary for lineage commitment.

TL;DR: Genome-wide analysis reveals that H2AZ occupies the promoters of developmentally important genes in a manner that is remarkably similar to that of the Polycomb group (PcG) protein Suz12, and finds that H 2AZ and PcG protein occupancy is interdependent at promoters, and shows that H1AZ is necessary for ES cell differentiation.
