Coordinating genome expression with cell size

S Marguerat, J Bähler - Trends in Genetics, 2012 - cell.com
Cell size is highly variable; cells from various tissues differ in volume over orders of
magnitudes, from tiny lymphocytes to giant neurons, and cells of a given type change size …

Transcription and remodeling produce asymmetrically unwrapped nucleosomal intermediates

S Ramachandran, K Ahmad, S Henikoff - Molecular cell, 2017 - cell.com

Genetic interactions involving five or more genes contribute to a complex trait in yeast

MB Taylor, IM Ehrenreich - PLoS genetics, 2014 - journals.plos.org
Recent research suggests that genetic interactions involving more than two loci may
influence a number of complex traits. How these 'higher-order'interactions arise at the …

MicroRNAs play regulatory roles in genomic balance

X Shi, H Yang, JA Birchler - BioEssays, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Classic genetics studies found that genomic imbalance caused by changing the dosage of
part of the genome (aneuploidy) has more detrimental effects than altering the dosage of the …
