Epigenetics: Regulation Through Repression
Epigenetics is the study of heritable changes in gene expression that occur without a change in DNA sequence. Epigenetic phenomena have major economic and medical relevance, and...
Translational control of IS10 transposition
We present genetic evidence that insertion sequence IS10, the active element in transposon Tn10, can negatively control expression of its own transposase protein at the translat...
Tn5 in Vitro Transposition
This communication reports the development of an efficient in vitro transposition system for Tn5. A key component of this system was the use of hyperactive mutant transposase. T...
DNA transposon <i>Hermes</i> inserts into DNA in nucleosome-free regions in vivo
Transposons are mobile genetic elements that are an important source of genetic variation and are useful tools for genome engineering, mutagenesis screens, and vectors for trans...
Transcriptional Maps of 10 Human Chromosomes at 5-Nucleotide Resolution
Sites of transcription of polyadenylated and nonpolyadenylated RNAs for 10 human chromosomes were mapped at 5–base pair resolution in eight cell lines. Unannotated, nonpolyadeny...
