Elucidating the effects of DNA modification on transcription by Yavorska, O

“…</p> <br> <p>mC loss is more disruptive to actively transcribing RNA polymerase (RNAP) occupancy and gene expression compared to hmC gain. The effects of hmC gain are modest, but both mC loss and hmC gain result in upregulated initiation (both canonical and spurious), elongation, pause-release, and gene expression. …”

A Systems Thinking Approach to Hispanic Engineer’s Involvement in Corporate Diversity Networks by Chambe, Enoch

“…These groups provide a platform for employees from underrepresented or marginalized communities to connect, share experiences, and find support. ERGs geared towards Hispanic employees are often advertised as not only a means to connect with others and provide a sense of belonging but are also often promoted as avenues towards successful professional development and growth for underrepresented employees. …”
