The nuclear periphery confers repression on H3K9me2-marked genes and transposons to shape cell fate

Harold C. Marin, Charlie Allen, Eric Simental, Eric W. Martin, Barbara Panning, Bassem Al‐Sady, Abigail L. Buchwalter

The paper shows that the nuclear periphery represses H3K9me2-marked genes and transposons, and its loss disrupts cell fate transitions in mESCs.

Downstream branches of receptor tyrosine kinase signaling act interdependently to shape the face

Nicholas J. Hanne, Diane P. Hu, Marta Vidal‐García, Charlie Allen, M. Bilal Shakir, Wei Yong Liu, Benedikt Hallgrímsson, Ralph Marcucio

The paper inhibits three downstream RTK signaling pathways in chicken embryos and finds they cause similar truncation of the frontonasal process, suggesting interdependent roles in morphogenesis.
