This study identifies RNA interaction at the NID/RBD of MeCP2 and shows it inhibits MeCP2-NCoR binding, suggesting a role in Rett syndrome pathophysiology.

The paper investigates the role of intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) in nucleoplasmin-like histone chaperones, finding that some functions require IDRs while others do not.

The paper shows that alternative splicing of ARS2 generates cytoplasmic isoforms that switch ARS2's function from inhibiting to promoting nonsense-mediated mRNA decay and enhance arsenic stress response.

This study identifies H4G, a novel histone variant overexpressed in breast cancer tissues, which localizes to nucleoli and enhances rDNA transcription by destabilizing nucleosomes.

This study investigates the redundant and divergent functions of histone chaperone paralogs Fpr3 and Fpr4 in yeast using a refined synthetic genetic array approach.
