High impact information on Cbx3

  • Furthermore, in the combination chemotherapy model, the interaction between doxorubicin and the resistance modifier 2 was studied in vitro [1].
  • Mice possess two structural homologues of Drosophila HP1, termed M31 and M32 (Singh et al., 1991) [2].
  • Here we report that a MoAb raised against the M32 protein (MAC 385) recognises a 22-kDa protein in murine nuclear extracts and that M32 is distributed in a fine-grain "speckled" pattern within interphase nuclei [2].
  • Of particular interest, mouse blood and MPRO undifferentiated cells and granulocytes revealed clear co-localization of trimethylated H3K9, trimethylated H4K20 and HP1 gamma with pericentric heterochromatin [3].
  • The Cbx3 structural gene is located on mouse Chromosome 6, close to the Hoxa cluster [4].
 

Biological context of Cbx3

  • The gene and pseudogenes of Cbx3/mHP1 gamma [4].
  • This report presents the isolation and characterization of the 5'-upstream region of the mouse M32 gene containing a promoter region and 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR) exon [5].
