Plant homeodomain finger protein 2 (PHF2), which contains a plant homeodomain and a Jumonji-C domain, is an epigenetic regulator that demethylates lysine 9 in histone 3 (H3K9me2). On the other hand, runt-related t...
Embryonic signaling pathways often lead to a switch from default repression to transcriptional activation of target genes. A major consequence of Wnt signaling is stabilization of β-catenin, which associates with T-c...
