TLDR
It is demonstrated in macrophages and B cells that collaborative interactions of the common factor PU.1 with small sets of macrophage- or B cell lineage-determining transcription factors establish cell-specific binding sites that are associated with the majority of promoter-distal H3K4me1-marked genomic regions.

Cooperativity and equilibrium with FOXA1 define the androgen receptor transcriptional program

TL;DR: It is shown that AR directly binds chromatin through the androgen-response elements (AREs), which is not required for AR-chromatin interaction, but instrumental in recruiting AR to low-affinity half-AREs by opening local chromatin around adjacent FKHD sites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mammalian ISWI and SWI/SNF selectively mediate binding of distinct transcription factors.

TL;DR: Genetic deletion of mammalian chromatin remodelling complexes reveals that mammalian ISWI is critical for nucleosomal periodicity and nuclear organization and that transcription factors rely on specific remodelling pathways for correct genomic binding.

Fragile X mental retardation protein modulates the stability of its m6A-marked messenger RNA targets.

TL;DR: Biochemical analyses indicate that FMRP regulates the stability of its m6A‐marked mRNA targets through YTHDF2, which could potentially contribute to the molecular pathogenesis of FXS, and transcriptome‐wide gene expression profiling suggests that M6A is a widespread epitranscriptomic modification in brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

An integrated multi-omics approach identifies epigenetic alterations associated with Alzheimer's disease.

TL;DR: It is suggested that Alzheimer’s disease involves a reconfiguration of the epigenome, where H3K27ac and H3k9ac impact disease pathways by dysregulating transcription- and chromatin-gene feedback loops and highlights potential epigenetic strategies for early-stage disease treatment.

High-resolution profiling of histone methylations in the human genome.

TL;DR: High-resolution maps for the genome-wide distribution of 20 histone lysine and arginine methylations as well as histone variant H2A.Z, RNA polymerase II, and the insulator binding protein CTCF across the human genome using the Solexa 1G sequencing technology are generated.
Journal ArticleDOI

RAG-1-deficient mice have no mature B and T lymphocytes

TL;DR: The introduction of a mutation in RAG-1 into the germline of mice via gene targeting in embryonic stem cells is described and it is shown that this mutation either activates or catalyzes the V(D)J recombination reaction of immunoglobulin and T cell receptor genes.

Genome-scale DNA methylation maps of pluripotent and differentiated cells

TL;DR: Low-throughput reduced representation bisulphite sequencing is established as a powerful technology for epigenetic profiling of cell populations relevant to developmental biology, cancer and regenerative medicine.
