Heterochromatic domains containing histone H3 lysine 9 methylation (H3K9me) can be epigenetically inherited independently of underlying DNA sequence. To gain insight into the mechanisms that mediate epigenetic inheritance, we used a Schizosaccharomyces pombe inducible heterochromatin formation system to perform a
Autophagosomes form de novo in a manner that is incompletely understood. Particularly enigmatic are autophagy-related protein 9 (Atg9)-containing vesicles that are required for autophagy machinery assembly but do not supply the bulk of the autophagosomal membrane. In this study, we

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is the rate-controlling enzyme for the accumulation of triacylglycerol into adipocytes, which acts by digesting it into glycerol and fatty acids. In this study, we found that treatment with (+)-JQ1, an inhibitor of the bromodomain and extra-terminal

Monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B), a flavoenzyme located in the outer mitochondrial membrane, is involved in the catabolism of monoamines. Altered levels of MAO-B are associated with cardiovascular/neuronal diseases. However, molecular mechanisms of MAO-B gene regulation are partially understood. We undertook
CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) is a conserved zinc finger transcription factor implicated in a wide range of functions, including genome organization, transcription activation, and elongation. To explore the basis for CTCF functional diversity, we coupled an auxin-induced degron system with precision
