Prof. Yoo Jueng-soo of the Department of Biochemistry of Konkuk University’s School of Medicine and Prof. Peter A. Jones at the University of Southern California identified how genes are regulated during stem cell differentiation, paving the way for understanding the differentiation process and further treating terminal diseases like cancer.
Their paper “SNF5 Is an Essential Executor of Epigenetic Regulation during Differentiation” was published in the April 25 online edition of PLoS Genetics.
