Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1) and PRC2 are responsible for epigenetic gene regulation. PRC1 ubiquitinates histone H2A (H2Aub), which subsequently promotes to introduce the H3 lysine 27 tri-methyl (H3K27me3) chromatin mark. Although this mechanism provides a link between two key transcriptional repressors, PRC2, it is unknown how histone-tail dynamics contribute process. Here, we have examined effect of ubiquitination linker-DNA on H3-tail H3K27 methylation by PRC2. In naïve...

Abstract Lung squamous carcinoma (LUSC) is a highly metastatic disease with poor prognosis. Using an integrated screening approach, we found that miR-671-5p reduces LUSC metastasis by inhibiting circular RNA (circRNA), CDR1as. Although the putative function of circRNA through miRNA sponging, more potently silenced axis CDR1as and its antisense transcript, cerebellar degeneration related protein 1 (CDR1). Silencing or CDR1 significantly inhibited metastases was sufficient to promote migration...

Abstract This paper closely examines Thucydides’ presentation of three naval battles fought in the Corinthian Gulf and battle Sybota off north-west Greece, order to show how his version action does not just stress pervasive impression Athenian dominance downplay Peloponnesian performance, but extends characterising fleet a surprisingly negative way. In first he claims that they were ignorant local weather patterns, second underwater hazards, after third ‘The Corinthians believed victors if...
