Summary from the GEO:"Epigenetic regulation of chromatin states is thought to control the self-renewal and differentiation of embryonic stem (ES) cells. However, the roles of repressive histone modifications such as trimethylated histone lysine 20 (H4K20me3) in pluripotency and development are largely unknown. Here, we show that the histone lysine methyltransferase SMYD5 mediates H4K20me3 at heterochromatin...

Genome binding/occupancy profiling by high throughput sequencing Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing Summary: This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries GSE94033 and GSE94085. Article summary that correlates to the GEO: "Epigenetic regulation of chromatin states is thought to control the self-renewal and differentiation of embryonic stem (ES) cells. However, the roles of repressive...

Summary from GEO: "The eIF4E translation initiation factor has oncogenic properties and concordantly, the inhibitory eIF4E-binding protein (4EBP1) is considered a tumor suppressor. The exact molecular effects of 4EBP1 activation in cancer are still unknown. Surprisingly, 4EBP1 is a target of genomic copy number gains (Chr. 8p11) in breast and lung cancer. We notice that 4EBP1 gains are genetically...

Summary from GEO: "DNA polymerase epsilon (Pol epsilon) plays multiple roles in genome duplication and its catalytic subunit POLE suppresses tumorigenesis in humans. Despite its importance, we have limited understanding of Pol epsilon functional mechanisms and how its loss-of-function affects the evolution of cancer genomes. To address this issue, we used the budding yeast ortholog Pol2 to model...
