A Panel of Histone H3 Mutations to Investigate Centromere Maintenance and Gene Silencing

Creator:

Esposito, Madison L.

Abstract:

Modifications of histone tail amino acid residues are necessary for many reactions involving chromatin. These processes can produce transcriptionally active, euchromatic, or inactive, heterochromatic, segments of DNA. The formation and maintenance of facultative heterochromatin is critical for the proper growth and development of many eukaryotes. Euchromatin can be changed into...
