Candida albicans repetitive elements display epigenetic diversity and plasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Transcriptionally silent heterochromatin is associated with repetitive DNA. It is poorly understood whether and how heterochromatin differs between different organisms and whether its structure can be remodelled in response to environmental signals. Here,

Nuclear CaMKII enhances histone H3 phosphorylation and remodels chromatin during cardiac hypertrophy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) plays a central role in pathological cardiac hypertrophy, but the mechanisms by which it modulates gene activity in the nucleus to mediate hypertrophic signaling remain unclear. Here, we report that

Lysosome-mediated processing of chromatin in senescence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cellular senescence is a stable proliferation arrest, a potent tumor suppressor mechanism, and a likely contributor to tissue aging. Cellular senescence involves extensive cellular remodeling, including of chromatin structure. Autophagy and lysosomes are

Histone modifications form a cell-type-specific chromosomal bar code that persists through the cell cycle

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Chromatin configuration influences gene expression in eukaryotes at multiple levels, from individual nucleosomes to chromatin domains several Mb long.

The Genome in a Three-Dimensional Context: Deciphering the Contribution of Noncoding Mutations at Enhancers to Blood Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Associations between blood cancer and genetic predisposition, including both inherited variants and acquired mutations and epimutations, have been well characterized.

Chromatin Alterations in Neurological Disorders and Strategies of (Epi)Genome Rescue

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2021
Neurological disorders (NDs) comprise a heterogeneous group of conditions that affect the function of the nervous system. Often incurable, NDs have profound and detrimental consequences on the affected individuals’ lives.

Germline chromatin [PDF]

open access: yesWormBook, 2006
The DNA in eukaryotes is wrapped around a histone octamer core, together comprising the main subunit of chromatin, the nucleosome. Modifications of the nucleosomal histones in the genome correlate with the ability or inability of chromatin to form higher order structures, that in turn influence gene activity.

The dynamics of replication licensing in live Caenorhabditis elegans embryos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Accurate DNA replication requires proper regulation of replication licensing, which entails loading MCM-2-7 onto replication origins. In this paper, we provide the first comprehensive view of replication licensing in vivo, using video microscopy of ...

ModHMM: A Modular Supra-Bayesian Genome Segmentation Method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Genome segmentation methods are powerful tools to obtain cell type or tissue-specific genome-wide annotations and are frequently used to discover regulatory elements.

Common CHD8 Genomic Targets Contrast With Model-Specific Transcriptional Impacts of CHD8 Haploinsufficiency. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The packaging of DNA into chromatin determines the transcriptional potential of cells and is central to eukaryotic gene regulation. Case sequencing studies have revealed mutations to proteins that regulate chromatin state, known as chromatin remodeling ...
