Kaiso belongs to the zinc finger and broad-complex, tramtrack and bric-a-brac/poxvirus and
zinc finger (BTB/POZ) protein family that has been implicated in tumorigenesis. Kaiso was …

CD28 costimulation controls multiple aspects of T cell function, including the expression of
proinflammatory cytokine genes. One of these genes encodes IL-2, a growth factor that …

Biological invasions exert multiple pervasive effects on ecosystems, potentially disrupting
species interactions and global ecological processes. Our ability to successfully predict and …

Cytosine methylation at CpG dinucleotides contributes to the epigenetic maintenance of
gene silencing. Dynamic reprogramming of DNA methylation patterns is believed to play a …

DNA methylation in animals is thought to repress transcription via methyl-CpG specific
binding proteins, which recruit enzymatic machinery promoting the formation of inactive …

Virtually all mammalian species including mouse, rat, pig, cow, and human, but not sheep
and rabbit, undergo genome‐wide epigenetic reprogramming by demethylation of the male …

Leptin is a fat hormone regulating energy homeostasis. Here, it is reported that the promoter
and CpG island of the autosomal gene Leptin (LEP) is a tissue-specific differentially …

Epigenetic perturbations are assumed to be responsible for abnormalities observed in
fetuses and offspring derived by in vitro techniques. We have designed an experiment with …

The functional characterization of mammalian proteins containing a methyl‐CpG‐binding
domain (MBD) has revealed that MBD proteins can decipher the epigenetic information …

We have examined the metaphase chromosomal localization of 15 proteins that have
previously been described as involved in mammalian chromatin modification and/or …
