THEORETICAL ANALYSIS OF POLYCOMB-TRITHORAX SYSTEMS PREDICTS THAT POISED CHROMATIN IS BISTABLE AND NOT BIVALENT

Theoretical analysis of Polycomb-Trithorax systems predicts that poised chromatin is bistable and not bivalent

Polycomb and Trithorax group proteins regulate silent Home Accent and active gene expression states, but also allow poised states in pluripotent cells.Here the authors present a mathematical model that integrates data on Polycomb/ Trithorax biochemistry into a single coherent framework which predicts that poised chromatin is not bivalent as previou

KRAS-Mutant Lung Cancer: Targeting Molecular and Immunologic Pathways, Therapeutic Advantages and Restrictions

RAS mutations are among the most common oncogenic mutations in human cancers.Among RAS mutations, KRAS has the highest frequency and is present in almost 30% of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.Lung cancer is the number one cause of mortality among cancers as a consequence of outrageous aggressiveness and late diagnosis.High mortality ra
