Cloning and expression of HEAT repeat containing subunits of condensin complexes in C. elegans

Research output: Contribution to conferencePoster

Abstract

The study is directed to pursue the hypothesis that the differential recruitment of the condensins to chromosomes is achieved because of the role of the histone modifications in the interaction. These histone modifications act to mediate the affinity of the condensins to the chromosomes. Because there are many different types of these condensins that bind to various regions on the chromosomes, they embody different functions in chromosome structure and transcription.
