Margulies develops bioinformatical approaches to identifying and characterizing regions of the human genome that are evolutionarily conserved across multiple species.
In general, genes that are active have less bound histone, while inactive genes are highly associated with histones during interphase. It also appears that the structure of histones have been evolutionarily conserved, ...
The most common microfilament protein is actin. Actin has been found in every organism studied. It is a very, very old and evolutionarily conserved molecule. The two microfilaments, actin and myosin, are the major proteins in our muscles.
