Histones serve to both package and organize DNA within the nucleus. In addition to histone
post-translational modification and chromatin remodelling complexes, histone variants …

Eukaryotic nucleosomes organize chromatin by wrapping 147 bp of DNA around a histone
core particle comprising two molecules each of histone H2A, H2B, H3 and H4. The DNA …

INTRODUCTION The centromeres of eukaryotic chromosomes assemble the multiprotein
kinetochore complex and thereby position attachment to the spindle microtubules, allowing …

Most histones are assembled into nucleosomes behind the replication fork to package newly
synthesized DNA. By contrast, histone variants, which are encoded by separate genes, are …

Many environmental conditions fluctuate and organisms need to respond effectively. This is
especially true for temperature cues that can change in minutes to seasons and often follow …

Motivation: Genome browsers that support fast navigation through vast datasets and provide
interactive visual analytics functions can help scientists achieve deeper insight into …

Programmed constitutive heterochromatin silencing is essential for eukaryotic genome
regulation, yet the initial step of this process is ambiguous. A large proportion of R-loops …

Global warming poses a major threat to plant growth and crop production. In some plants,
including Arabidopsis thaliana, elevated temperatures induce a series of morphological and …

Chromatin consists of a complex of DNA and histone proteins as its core components and
plays an important role in both packaging DNA and regulating DNA metabolic pathways …

Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile parasitic sequences that have been repeatedly
coopted during evolution to generate new functions and rewire gene regulatory networks …
