The non-specific lethal (NSL) complex is a chromatin-associated factor that has been shown to regulate the expression of thousands of genes in both fruit flies and mammals. Abrogation of the NSL genes ...

The NSL (non-specific lethal) complex regulates thousands of genes in fruit flies and mammals. Silencing the NSL genes leads to the death of the organism, which gave the complex its curious name.

Researchers have identified a novel regulatory protein complex in Drosophila that explains another protein's double life, and which likely plays an important role in mammals, too. Researchers from the ...

Chromatin modifiers are responsible for the establishment of ‘chromatin states’ that determine the accessibility and activity of nuclear DNA. Different chromatin states are associated with altered ...

Cilia are thin, eyelash-like extensions on the surface of cells. They perform a wide variety of functions, acting as mechanosensors or chemosensors, and play a crucial role in many signaling pathways.
