On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The ChAHP complex is an essential genome regulator that integrates a transcription factor, a chromatin remodeler and heterochromatin proteins into a single functional unit. I will present our recent discovery of its role in repressing transposons and the molecular mechanisms underpinning this function. Our identification of the paralogous ChAHP2 complex and its distinct properties establishes this protein family as a conserved, vertebrate-specific component of the retrotransposon control machinery.
