Kinetochore assembly and heterochromatin formation occur autonomously in Schizosaccharomyces pombe (2014)
Journal Article
Brown, W. R., Thomas, G., Lee, N. C., Blythe, M., Liti, G., Warringer, J., & Loose, M. W. (2014). Kinetochore assembly and heterochromatin formation occur autonomously in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 111(5), https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1216934111

Kinetochores in multicellular eukaryotes are usually associated with heterochromatin. Whether this heterochromatin simply promotes the cohesion necessary for accurate chromosome segregation at cell division or whether it also has a role in kinetochor...

5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine enrichment of non-committed cells is not a universal feature of vertebrate development (2012)
Journal Article
Almeida, R. D., Loose, M., Sottile, V., Matsa, E., Denning, C., Young, L., Johnson, A. D., Gering, M., & Ruzov, A. (2012). 5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine enrichment of non-committed cells is not a universal feature of vertebrate development. Epigenetics, 7(4), https://doi.org/10.4161/epi.19375

5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine (5-hmc) is a cytosine modification that is relatively abundant in mammalian pre-implantation
embryos and embryonic stem cells (Esc) derived from mammalian blastocysts. Recent observations imply that both
5-hmc and Tet1/2/... Read More about 5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine enrichment of non-committed cells is not a universal feature of vertebrate development.

Semi-quantitative immunohistochemical detection of 5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine reveals conservation of its tissue distribution between amphibians and mammals (2012)
Journal Article
Almeida, R. D., Sottile, V., Loose, M., De Sousa, P. A., Johnson, A. D., & Ruzov, A. (2012). Semi-quantitative immunohistochemical detection of 5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine reveals conservation of its tissue distribution between amphibians and mammals. Epigenetics, 7(2), https://doi.org/10.4161/epi.7.2.18949

5-Hydroxymethyl-cytosine (5-hmC) is a form of modified cytosine, which has recently attracted a considerable attention due to its potential role in transcriptional regulation. According to several reports 5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine distribution is tiss...
