A hexanucleotide repeat expansion in C9ORF72 is the cause of chromosome 9p21-linked ALS-FTD

Alan E. Renton, +85 more
- 20 Oct 2011 - 
TL;DR: The chromosome 9p21 amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-frontotemporal dementia (ALS-FTD) locus contains one of the last major unidentified autosomal-dominant genes underlying these common neurodegenerative diseases, and a large hexanucleotide repeat expansion in the first intron of C9ORF72 is shown.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of the Vertebrate Insulator Protein CTCF-Binding Sites in the Human Genome

TL;DR: 13,804 CTCF-binding sites in potential insulators of the human genome are described, discovered experimentally in primary human fibroblasts and fit to a consensus motif highly conserved and suitable for predicting possible insulators driven by CTCf in other vertebrate genomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reciprocal binding of CTCF and BORIS to the NY-ESO-1 promoter coincides with derepression of this cancer-testis gene in lung cancer cells.

TL;DR: Rec reciprocal binding of CTCF and BORIS to the NY-ESO-1 promoter mediates epigenetic regulation of this CT gene in lung cancer cells, and suggest that induction of BORis may be a novel strategy to augment immunogenicity of pulmonary carcinomas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dual role of DNA methylation inside and outside of CTCF-binding regions in the transcriptional regulation of the telomerase hTERT gene

TL;DR: HTERT methylation prevents binding of the CTCF repressor, but partial hypomethylation of the core promoter is necessary for hTERT expression.
