Biochemistry

Mechanisms of epigenetic memory by Polycomb proteins

Montreal Clinical Research Institute (IRCM)

About the Project A funded position is available for a PhD student with a strong interest in biochemistry and biophysics for a project in the area of epigenetic regulation and transcription memory by Polycomb proteins. Project Description: Epigenetic memory is central to development is also used to transmit information across generations. The Polycomb Group (PcG) proteins are key mediators of epigenetic memory.

Biochemistry

The role of DNA topology in epigenetic regulation by Polycomb proteins

Montreal Clinical Research Institute (IRCM)

About the Project Project Description: Correct use of the genome is at the heart of cell function and development. The primary sequence of DNA holds its essential information, yet the organization and structure of DNA also encode information. This includes the packaging of DNA into chromatin, and the vast array of chromatin regulatory mechanisms.
