Researchers identify a novel centromere-specific histone H3 variant called the “CENP-A”, which reconstituted with H4 forms “CENP-A–H4” octasome and explore its role in mitosis. Centromeres, ...
Schematic diagram illustrating the novel epigenetic pathway. The dual modification on histone variant H3.3 recruits CBX7, which brings the scaffold protein KAP1 to chromatin. KAP1 facilitates H3K9me3 ...
Human disease including cancer arises from disfunction of essential processes within a cell. One essential cellular process is the copying of the genomic DNA—the road map of cells—followed by ...
