Clinical Epigenomics in Rare Diseases: Interpreting DNA Methylation Episignatures
Clinical epigenomics extends rare‐disease diagnostics beyond DNA sequence by revealing the downstream regulatory consequences of genetic variation. DNA methylation episignatures provide functional evidence that can support diagnosis, refine variant interpretation, distinguish overlapping disorders, and complement genomic, and multi‐omic testing ...

RNA recognition and translational regulation by a homeodomain protein
In Drosophila, the primary determinant of anterior pattern is the gradient morphogen bicoid (bcd), a homeodomain protein that binds DNA and transcriptionally activates target genes at different threshold concentrations.

Chromodomain Helicase DNA–Binding Proteins and Spermatogenesis: Current Advances
ABSTRACT Background Male infertility is a prevalent clinical condition, with approximately one‐third of cases classified as idiopathic, frequently stemming from impaired spermatogenesis because of dysregulated gene expression. Chromodomain helicase DNA‐binding (CHD) proteins are central chromatin remodelers that orchestrate this epigenetic regulation ...

The tomato mars1/rough mutant displays enhanced root regeneration and rough fruits due to ectopic cell proliferation. The causal gene encodes a lysine‐specific histone demethylase that normally maintains gene silencing. Its loss alters histone methylation, upregulating several genes, including those B‐type cyclins involved in tissue‐specific cellular ...

Combinatorial cis‐regulatory elements shape temporal effector expression in Ustilago maydis
We identified promoter motifs associated with infection phases in Ustilago maydis and analysed their positional distribution relative to transcription start sites and generated a synthetic minimal promoter that drives in‐plant gene expression. ABSTRACT Plant‐pathogenic fungi secrete small proteins, termed effectors, to reprogramme host metabolism and ...

Differential control of transcription by homologous homeodomain coregulators
The human herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) transactivator VP16 and its homolog from bovine herpes-virus 1 (BHV-1) can each recruit the human homeodomain protein Oct-1 into a transcriptional regulatory complex.

SUMMARY Salt glands, developed in the epidermis of salt‐secreting mangrove plant Avicennia marina leaves and specialized in salt secretion, are critical for improving the survival under high saline habitats. However, the salt secretion mechanism in A. marina remains poorly understood. In this study, laser capture microdissection was employed to isolate

Defective Msx1 Nuclear Translocation Underlies Severe Oligodontia
Aim or purpose: This study aimed to elucidate the mechanism by which MSX1 variants contribute to nonsyndromic tooth agenesis (NSTA) and determine how variant domains correlate with tooth loss severity.

Functional specificity of the Antennapedia homeodomain
The segmental identity in animal development is determined by a set of homeotic selector genes clustered in the invertebrate HOM or vertebrate Hox homeo box complexes.
