Abstract: Paternal contributions to epigenetic inheritance are not well understood. Paternal contributions via marked nucleosomes are particularly understudied, in part because sperm in some organisms replace the majority of nucleosome packaging with protamine packaging. Here we… read more here.

Abstract: Histone proteins compact and organize DNA resulting in a dynamic chromatin architecture impacting DNA accessibility and ultimately gene expression. Eukaryotic chromatin landscapes are structured through histone protein variants, epigenetic marks, the activities of chromatin-remodeling complexes,… read more here.
