CHD7 functions in the nucleolus as a positive regulator of ribosomal RNA biogenesis

Abstract excerpt

De novo mutation of the gene encoding chromodomain helicase DNA-binding protein 7 (CHD7) is the primary cause of CHARGE syndrome, a complex developmental disorder characterized by the co-occurrence of a specific set of birth defects. Recent studies indicate that CHD7 functions as a transcriptional regulator in the nucleoplasm. Here, we report based on immunofluorescence and western blotting of subcellular...
