The Dream and MEC NuRD Complexes reinforce SPR-5/MET-2 maternal reprogramming to maintain the germline-soma distinction

Sindy R. Chavez, Jazmin Dozier, Saahj P. Gosrani…·Brandon S. Carpenter

The paper shows that DREAM and MEC NuRD complexes reinforce SPR-5/MET-2 maternal reprogramming to prevent germline gene expression in somatic tissues and developmental delay in C. elegans.

Ectopic transcription due to inappropriately inherited histone methylation may interfere with the ongoing function of terminally differentiated cells

Juan D. Rodriguez, Monica N. Reeves, Hsiao‐Lin V. Wang…·David J. Katz

The paper shows that mutations in histone modifying enzymes cause ectopic gene expression in adult worms, leading to behavioral defects that may be reversible.

CoREST has a conserved role in facilitating SPR-5/LSD1 maternal reprogramming of histone methylation

Brandon S. Carpenter, Alyssa Scott, Robert David Goldin…·David J. Katz

The paper shows that CoREST facilitates maternal reprogramming of histone methylation by SPR-5/LSD1 in C. elegans and mice.
