Journal ArticleDOI
Drought Tolerance Strategies and Autophagy in Resilient Wheat Genotypes
Kahleen Hickey,Magnus Wood,Tom Sexton,Yunus Sahin,Taras Nazarov,Jessica Fisher,Karen A. Sanguinet,Asaph B. Cousins,Helmut Kirchhoff,Andrei Smertenko +9 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors compare drought responses in two resilient spring wheat (Triticum aestivum) genotypes: a well-studied drought-resilient Drysdale and a resilient genotype from the US Pacific North-West Hollis.
Book ChapterDOI
Assessment of 3D Interactions Between Promoters and Distal Regulatory Elements with Promoter Capture Hi-C (PCHi-C).
Nezih Karasu,Tom Sexton +1 more
TL;DR: Promoter Capture Hi-C (PCHi-C) as discussed by the authors is a variant tailored for the simultaneous assessment of all interactions with thousands of specific bait sequences, so is particularly suited to genome-wide studies of promoter interactions with distal regulatory elements, such as enhancers.
Posted ContentDOI
The Drosophila Dosage Compensation Complex activates target genes by chromosome looping within the active compartment
Tamas Schauer,Yad Ghavi-Helm,Tom Sexton,Christian Albig,Catherine Regnard,Giacomo Cavalli,Eileen E. M. Furlong,Peter B. Becker +7 more
TL;DR: A remarkable range of DCC action not only in linear proximity, but also at megabase distance if close in space is revealed, suggesting that DCC profits from pre-existing chromosome folding to activate genes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dissecting Gene Repression: Not Just Location, Location, Location
TL;DR: Large heterochromatic domains are found tethered to the lamina, but is this nuclear environment repressive per se, or just the 'ground state' of inactive chromatin?
Journal ArticleDOI
Short tandem repeats are important contributors to silencer elements in T cells
Saadat Hussain,Nori Sadouni,Dominic van Essen,Lan T.M. Dao,Quentin Ferré,Guillaume Charbonnier,Magali Torres,Frederic Gallardo,Charles-Henri Lecellier,Tom Sexton,Simona Saccani,Salvatore Spicuglia +11 more
TL;DR: In this article , the STARR-seq approach was used as a high-throughput reporter strategy to quantitatively assess silencer activity in mammals, and identified silencers were associated with either repressive or active chromatin marks and enriched for known transcriptional repressors.
