Histone H3.3 is a highly conserved histone H3 replacement variant in metazoans, and has been implicated in many important biological processes including cell differentiation and reprogramming. Germlin
Histone H3K9 methylation is a conserved modification that generally represses transcription. In C. elegans it is enriched on silent tissue-specific genes and repetitive elements. In met-2 set-25 doubl
Fidelity of DNA replication is crucial for the accurate transmission of genetic information across generations, yet errors still occur despite multiple control mechanisms. This study investigated the
Long interspersed elements-1 (LINE-1, L1) are retrotransposons that hold the capacity of selfpropagation in the genome with potential mutagenic outcomes. How somatic cells restrict L1 activity and how
Genome instability often arises at common fragile sites (CFSs) leading to cancer-associated chromosomal rearrangements. However, the underlying mechanisms of how CFS protection is achieved is not well
