H2A.Z demarcates intergenic regions of the plasmodium falciparum epigenome that are dynamically marked by H3K9ac and H3K4me3.

Epigenetic regulatory mechanisms and their enzymes are promising targets for malaria therapeutic intervention; however, the epigenetic component of gene expression in P.falciparum is poorly understood.Dynamic or stable association of epigenetic marks with genomic features provides important clues about their function and helps to understand how his

Silicone elastomers filled with rare earth oxides

Silicones which possess, amongst others, remarkable mechanical properties, thermal stability over a wide range of temperatures and processability, and rare earth oxides (REO), known for their unique optic, magnetic and catalytic properties can be coupled into multifunctional composite materials (S-REOs).In addition, the intrinsic hydrophobicity of
