MAP2K6 remodels chromatin and facilitates reprogramming by activating Gatad2b-phosphorylation dependent heterochromatin loosening
Somatic cell reprogramming is an ideal model for studying epigenetic regulation as it undergoes dramatic chromatin remodeling. However, a role for phosphorylation signaling in chromatin protein modifications f...

Open AccessSRSF1 promotes the inclusion of exon 3 of SRA1 and the invasion of hepatocellular carcinoma cells by interacting with exon 3 of SRA1pre-mRNA
Steroid receptor RNA activator 1 (SRA1) has been described as a novel transcriptional co-activator that affects the migration of cancer cells. Through RT-PCR, we identified that skip** exon 3 of SRA1 produces t...

Open AccessCircular RNA hsa_circ_001783 regulates breast cancer progression via sponging miR-200c-3p
Increasing evidence suggests circular RNAs (circRNAs) exert critical functions in tumor progression via sponging miRNAs (microRNAs). However, the role of circRNAs in breast cancer remains unclear. Here we syst...

Cloning and expression of a luxRhomologue from Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae
LuxR homologues are the main components of LuxR/LuxI circuit in Quorum Sensing (QS) of Gram-negative bacteria. A luxR homologue, designated as xooR, was cloned from X. oryzae pv. oryzae. The xooR gene is a trans...
