The characteristics of embryonic stem cells (ES cells) make them one of the best models to study the epigenetic regulation exerted by different actors in order

Mammalian SWI/SNF (also called BAF) ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complexes are essential for formation of the pluripotent cells of the early embryo, and a

"A central question in the study of vertebrate development is how to account for the exquisite interplay of genes within cells as they create the organs of the

The mammalian SWI/SNF, or BAF, complex is a polymorphic ATP-dependent chromatin remodeler that is mutated in approximately 20% of human cancers and is necessary

This indispensable volume highlights recent studies identifying epigenetic mechanisms as essential regulators of skin development, stem cell activity and regene
