11. The ABC of KRAB zinc finger proteins
Abstract : All living organisms consist of cells and the identity of a cell is defined by the genes it expresses. To assure proper function, a cell receives continuous information on which genes to turn on and off. This information is, to a large extent, provided by transcription factors. READ MORE

15. Molecular mechanisms of transcriptional repression by the orphan receptor SHP
Abstract : SHP (Small Heterodimer Partner) is an atypical orphan member of the mammalian nuclear receptor family that consists of only a putative ligand-binding domain and thus cannot bind DNA. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the molecular mechanisms of the transcriptionally inhibitory effect of SHP. READ MORE
