1. Jack of all trades, master of none : the multifaceted nature of H3K36 methylation
Abstract : Post-translational modifications of histones enable differential transcriptional control of the genome between cell types and developmental stages, and in response to environmental factors. The methylation of Histone 3 Lysine 36 (H3K36) is one the most complex and well-studied histone modifications and is known to be involved in a wide range of molecular processes. READ MORE

2. Methyltransferase Ash1, histone methylation and their impact on Polycomb repression
Abstract : Antagonistic interactions between Polycomb Group (PcG) and Trithorax Group (TrxG) proteins orchestrate the expression of key developmental genes. Distinct maternally loaded repressors establish the silenced state of these genes in cells where they should not be expressed and later PcG proteins sense whether a target gene is inactive and maintain the repression throughout multiple cell divisions.

3. Functional studies of nuclear envelope-associated proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Abstract : Proteins of the nuclear envelope play important roles in a variety of cellular processes e.g. transport of proteins between the nucleus and cytoplasm, co-ordination of nuclear and cytoplasmic events, anchoring of chromatin to the nuclear periphery and regulation of transcription.

4. Effects of excess glucocorticoids on neural cell fate : long lasting consequences of adverse prenatal factors
Abstract : The developing nervous system is particularly vulnerable to high level of glucocorticoids (GCs). Excess GCs is often associated with decreased birth weight in relation to gestational age, and to increased risk of psychiatric disorders, like depression, later in life. READ MORE
