The candidate Wilms' tumour gene is involved in genitourinary development

K Pritchard-Jones, S Fleming, D Davidson, W Bickmore… - Nature, 1990 - nature.com
WILMS' tumour is an embryonic kidney tumour thought to arise through aberrant mesenchymal

…, NL Mahy, JA Ellis, WA Bickmore - Human molecular …, 2001 - academic.oup.com
To fully understand genome function, the linear genome map must be integrated with a
spatial map of chromosomes in the nucleus. Distinct nuclear addresses for a few human …

Chromatin decondensation and nuclear reorganization of the HoxB locus upon induction of transcription

S Chambeyron, WA Bickmore - Genes & development, 2004 - genesdev.cshlp.org
The colinearity of genes in Hox clusters suggests a role for chromosome structure in gene
regulation. We reveal programmed changes in chromatin structure and nuclear organization …

[HTML][HTML] Single-cell dynamics of genome-nuclear lamina interactions

…, H Janssen, M Amendola, LD Nolen, WA Bickmore… - Cell, 2013 - cell.com
The nuclear lamina (NL) interacts with hundreds of large genomic regions termed lamina
associated domains (LADs). The dynamics of these interactions and the relation to epigenetic …

[PDF][PDF] Chromatin motion is constrained by association with nuclear compartments in human cells

JR Chubb, S Boyle, P Perry, WA Bickmore - Current Biology, 2002 - cell.com
Background: In comparison with many nuclear proteins, the movement of chromatin in nuclei
appears to be generally constrained. These restrictions on motion are proposed to reflect …
