CDX2 binds distinct targets in developing and adult intestinal epithelial cells based on the distribution of its motifs with and without CpG. Here, the authors show that loss of DNA methylation ...

This important study reveals a new mechanism for gene regulation in neurons by an RNA binding protein called RBM20 previously studied in the heart. The methods used are compelling, including the ...
