Cell minireview: Long Noncoding RNAs Usher In a New Era in the Biology of Enhancers summary: Enhancer-associated long noncoding RNAs act over long distances and across chromosomes to activate transcription at distal promoters. Here, we address the latest advances made toward understand ...
Epigenetic phenomenon of dosage compensation in Drosophila is mediated by the male-specific lethal (MSL) complex, which contains two large noncoding roX RNAs in Drosophila . How these RNAs interact with the MSL proteins remains poorly understood. In this study, Ilik et al. (156–173) ...
最新Nat Rev Genet: the epigenetic states imposed by PIWI on targets may actually drive piRNA production itself. These findings start to couple small RNA biogenesis with small - RNA -mediated epigenetics. C.elegans-Effects of PIWI pathways on chromatin. ...
