[HTML][HTML] RYBP-PRC1 complexes mediate H2A ubiquitylation at polycomb target sites independently of PRC2 and H3K27me3

…, S Taylor, H Ura, H Koide, A Wutz, M Vidal, S Elderkin… - Cell, 2012 - cell.com
Polycomb-repressive complex 1 (PRC1) has a central role in the regulation of heritable gene
silencing during differentiation and development. PRC1 recruitment is generally attributed …

The pluripotent regulatory circuitry connecting promoters to their long-range interacting elements

…, S Elderkin, K Tabbada, E Darbo, S Andrews… - Genome …, 2015 - genome.cshlp.org

Polycomb repressive complex PRC1 spatially constrains the mouse embryonic stem cell genome

…, H Koseki, P Fraser, NM Luscombe, S Elderkin - Nature …, 2015 - nature.com
The Polycomb repressive complexes PRC1 and PRC2 maintain embryonic stem cell (ESC)
pluripotency by silencing lineage-specifying developmental regulator genes 1 . Emerging …

[HTML][HTML] Targeting polycomb to pericentric heterochromatin in embryonic stem cells reveals a role for H2AK119u1 in PRC2 recruitment

…, J Sharif, NP Blackledge, V De Marco, S Elderkin… - Cell reports, 2014 - cell.com
The mechanisms by which the major Polycomb group (PcG) complexes PRC1 and PRC2

Kinetochore localisation and phosphorylation of the mitotic checkpoint components Bub1 and BubR1 are differentially regulated by spindle events in human cells

…, D Hussein, Y Wang, S Elderkin… - Journal of cell …, 2001 - journals.biologists.com
BUB1 is a budding yeast gene required to ensure that progression through mitosis is coupled
to correct spindle assembly. Two related human protein kinases, Bub1 and BubR1, both …
