The Role of Histone Acetyltransferases in Normal and Malignant Hematopoiesis [PDF]
Histone or non-histone protein acetylation plays important roles in all kinds of cellular events, including the normal and abnormal development of blood cells, through changing the epigenetic status of chromatin and regulating non-histone protein’s ...

Different adaptation strategies of two citrus scion/rootstock combinations in response to drought stress [PDF]
Scion/rootstock interaction is important for plant development and for breeding programs. In this context, polyploid rootstocks presented several advantages, mainly in relation to biotic and abiotic stresses.

Acetyltransferases and tumour suppression [PDF]
The acetyltransferase p300 was first identified associated with the adenoviral transforming protein E1A, suggesting a potential role for p300 in the regulation of cell proliferation. Direct evidence demonstrating a role for p300 in human tumours was lacking until the recently publication by Gayther et al, which strongly supports a role for p300 as a ...

The BRCA2 is a histone acetyltransferase [PDF]
Patients carrying mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2 tumor suppressor genes have shown to have high risk in developing breast and ovarian cancers. Two potential functions of BRCA2 were proposed which includes role in the regulation of transcription and also in DNA repair.

A role for human N-alpha acetyltransferase 30 (Naa30) in maintaining mitochondrial integrity [PDF]
N-terminal acetylation (Nt-acetylation) by N-terminal acetyltransferases (NATs) is one of the most common protein modifications in eukaryotes. The NatC complex represents one of three major NATs of which the substrate profile remains largely unexplored ...

TGFβ impairs HNF1α functional activity in Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition interfering with the recruitment of CBP/p300 acetyltransferases [PDF]
The cytokine transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) plays a crucial role in the induction of both epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) program and fibro-cirrhotic process in the liver, where it contributes also to organ inflammation following several ...

Dynamic chromatin: concerted nucleosome remodelling and acetylation [PDF]
The flexibility of chromatin that enables translation of environmental cues into changes in genome utilisation, relies on a battery of enzymes able to modulate chromatin structure in a highly targeted and regulated manner.

Epigenetics in ovarian cancer: premise, properties, and perspectives. [PDF]
Malignant ovarian tumors bear the highest mortality rate among all gynecological cancers. Both late tumor diagnosis and tolerance to available chemical therapy increase patient mortality.

A Yeast Polyamine Acetyltransferase [PDF]
An uncharacterized yeast gene has been shown to encode a polyamine acetyltransferase and named PAA1. The recombinant Paa1 protein readily acetylates various polyamines such as putrescine, spermidine, and spermine. paa1 mutants are viable and grow normally under standard conditions.

Epigenetic Profiling Reveals a Developmental Decrease in Promoter Accessibility During Cortical Maturation in vivo [PDF]
Axon regeneration in adult central nervous system (CNS) is limited in part by a developmental decline in the ability of injured neurons to re-express needed regeneration associated genes (RAGs).
