A Chromodomain Mutation Identifies Separable Roles for <i>C. elegans</i> MRG-1 in Germline and Somatic Development

2022-02-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The packaging of DNA into chromatin strongly influences gene regulation. Post-translational modifications of histones, and the proteins that bind to them, alter the accessibility of chromatin and contribute to the activation and repression of genes. The human MRG15 ( MORF4- Related Gene on chromosome 15) protein is a conserved chromodomain-containing protein that binds to methylated lysine 36 o...
