A CBX8-CONTAINING POLYCOMB COMPLEX FACILITATES THE TRANSITION TO GENE ACTIVATION DURING ES CELL DIFFERENTIATION.

A Cbx8-containing polycomb complex facilitates the transition to gene activation during ES cell differentiation.

Polycomb proteins play an essential role in maintaining the repression of developmental genes in self-renewing embryonic stem cells.The exact mechanism allowing the derepression of polycomb target genes during cell differentiation remains unclear.Our project aimed to identify Cbx8 binding sites in differentiating mouse embryonic stem cells.Therefor

Experimental and analytical study of bio-based epoxy composite materials for strengthening reinforced concrete structures

This paper presents a new approach to strengthen reinforced concrete structures using natural fiber composites.Natural fibers are often used in civil engineering for thermal or acoustic insulation, but rarely are they employed to strengthen structures.Natural fiber composites are constituted of a matrix based on epoxy adhesive Panel Puller Tool and
