Acetylation of internal lysine residues of core histone N-terminal domains has been found correlatively associated with transcriptional activation in eukaryotes for more than three decades. Recent discoveries showing that several transcriptional regulators possess intrinsic histone acetyltransferase

## Abstract In an effort to understand the epigenetic regulation of ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) expression we have previously demonstrated the role of DNA methyltransferases and methyl CpG binding proteins in rRNA synthesis. Here, we studied the role of protein arginine methyltransferase PRMT5 and th
The testis-specific histone H1t is synthesized during spermatogenesis exclusively in late pachytene primary spermatocytes. Transcription of the H1t gene is repressed in every tissue except testis. Within the testis, transcription is repressed during development before the spermatocyte stage and in l
## Abstract Neurogenin1 is an important bHLH protein that plays crucial role in neurogenesis. We first show that the expression of __ngn1__ increases drastically in RA induced neuronal differentiation. During which, a three successive stages of the epigenetic changes surrounding the __ngn1__ gene a
