EMBO Rep
. 2024 Apr;
25(5):2258-2277.
PMID: 38654121
X chromosome inactivation (XCI) in mammals is mediated by Xist RNA which functions in cis to silence genes on a single X chromosome in XX female cells, thereby equalising levels...

PMID: 36012483
Despite the importance of ancient DNA for understanding human prehistoric dispersals, poor survival means that data remain sparse for many areas in the tropics, including in Africa. In such instances,...

Cell Rep
. 2022 May;
39(7):110830.
PMID: 35584662
X chromosome inactivation (XCI) is mediated by the non-coding RNA Xist, which directs chromatin modification and gene silencing in cis. The RNA binding protein SPEN and associated corepressors have a...

Genome Res
. 2021 Jun;
31(8):1395-1408.
PMID: 34131006
RNA -methyladenosine (mA) modification plays important roles in multiple aspects of RNA regulation. mA is installed cotranscriptionally by the METTL3/14 complex, but its direct roles in RNA processing remain unclear....

Curr Opin Genet Dev
. 2020 May;
61:53-61.
PMID: 32403014
Many intricate pathways contribute to the timely control of gene expression during development. Polycomb repressive complexes (PRC1 and PRC2) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are players associated with gene repression...

J Vestib Res
. 2020 Apr;
30(2):109-120.
PMID: 32310201
Background: Although there are articles and studies that associate postural changes with changes in vocal quality, to the best of our knowledge, this was the first study investigating the association...

Nat Commun
. 2019 Jul;
10(1):3129.
PMID: 31311937
Xist RNA, the master regulator of X chromosome inactivation, acts in cis to induce chromosome-wide silencing. Whilst recent studies have defined candidate silencing factors, their relative contribution to repressing different...

Folia Phoniatr Logop
. 2019 Jul;
72(4):282-289.
PMID: 31266034
Background: The association between voice and body posture is consensual across the scientific literature and seems to be established both ways. Any changes in normal posture can influence the mechanisms...

PMID: 28596365
Recruitment of the Polycomb repressive complexes PRC1 and PRC2 by Xist RNA is an important paradigm for chromatin regulation by long noncoding RNAs. Here, we show that the noncanonical Polycomb...
