Prior memory responses modulate behavior and brain state engagement
Abstract Memory encoding and retrieval constitute neurally dissociable brain states and prior behavioral work suggests that these states may linger in time.Thus memory states may influence both the current experience and subsequent events; however, this account has not been directly tested.To test the hypothesis that memory judgments induce brain s

CTCF and CohesinSA-1 Mark Active Promoters and Boundaries of Repressive Chromatin Domains in Primary Human Erythroid Cells.
BackgroundCTCF and cohesinSA-1 are regulatory proteins involved in a number of critical cellular processes including transcription, maintenance of chromatin domain architecture, and insulator function.To assess changes in the CTCF and cohesinSA-1 interactomes during erythropoiesis, chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with high throughput sequenci
