A cytoskeletal function for PBRM1 reading methylated microtubules (open access)

A cytoskeletal function for PBRM1 reading methylated microtubules

This article shows that that the coordinated read-write activity of the epigenetic machinery extends to the cytoskeleton, with PBRM1 in the PBAF chromatin remodeling complex reading microtubule methyl marks written by the SETD2 histone methyltransferase. This article opens a previously unknown window into how chromatin remodeler defects can drive disease via both epigenetic and cytoskeletal dysfunction.

Does the left aorta provide proton-rich blood to the gut when crocodilians digest a meal? (open access)

Does the left aorta provide proton-rich blood to the gut when crocodilians digest a meal?

Article measuring blood parameters in the left aortae and atria of crocodilians. The findings do not support the hypothesis that a R–L shunt serves to deliver CO2 for the gastrointestinal system after feeding in crocodilians.
