Global Analysis of Dynamic Epigenetic Marking and Transcriptional Regulation Underlying T-Cell Lineage Commitment [PDF]
T-cell lineage specification and commitment success depends on precise temporal induction of T-lineage specific genes, as well as repression of lineage-inappropriate programs. After entry into the thymus, T-cell progenitors still retain inherited lineage

c-Jun as a one-way valve at the naive to primed interface
Background c-Jun is a proto-oncogene functioning as a transcription factor to activate gene expression under many physiological and pathological conditions, particularly in somatic cells.

Protocol for isolation and proteostatic analysis of sub-populations of spermatogenic cells in mouse
Summary: Spermatogenesis generates heterologous cell populations which, if not distinguished clearly, often hinder mechanistic and etiological studies.

The NuRD complex cooperates with SALL4 to orchestrate reprogramming
Cell fate decision involves rewiring of the genome, but remains poorly understood at the chromatin level. Here, we report that chromatin remodeling complex NuRD participates in closing open chromatin in the early phase of somatic reprogramming.

Notch promotes neural lineage entry by pluripotent embryonic stem cells [PDF]
A central challenge in embryonic stem (ES) cell biology is to understand how to impose direction on primary lineage commitment. In basal culture conditions, the majority of ES cells convert asynchronously into neural cells.

Cell lineage specific distribution of H3K27 trimethylation accumulation in an in vitro model for human implantation [PDF]
Female mammals inactivate one of their two X-chromosomes to compensate for the difference in gene-dosage with males that have just one X-chromosome. X-chromosome inactivation is initiated by the expression of the non-coding RNA Xist, which coats the X ...

Proteostasis regulated by testis-specific ribosomal protein RPL39L maintains mouse spermatogenesis
Summary: Maintaining proteostasis is important for animal development. How proteostasis influences spermatogenesis that generates male gametes, spermatozoa, is not clear.

Lineage tracing of Pf4-Cre marks hematopoietic stem cells and their progeny [PDF]
The development of a megakaryocyte lineage specific Cre deleter, using the Pf4 (CXCL4) promoter (Pf4-Cre), was a significant step forward in the specific analysis of platelet and megakaryocyte cell biology.

Diversity Among Cyanobacterial Photosystem I Oligomers
Unraveling the oligomeric states of the photosystem I complex is essential to understanding the evolution and native mechanisms of photosynthesis. The molecular composition and functions of this complex are highly conserved among cyanobacteria, algae ...
