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 ...

Chromatin and Splicing

open access: yes, 2014
In the past several years, the relationship between chromatin structure and mRNA processing has been the source of significant investigation across diverse disciplines. Central to these efforts was an unanticipated nonrandom distribution of chromatin marks across transcribed regions of protein-coding genes.

Targeting EZH2 reverses thyroid cell dedifferentiation and enhances iodide uptake in anaplastic thyroid cancer

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) lacks iodide uptake ability due to MAPK activation increasing the expression of the histone methyltransferase EZH2, which represses thyroid differentiation genes (TDGs) such as the sodium iodide symporter (NIS). Dual inhibition of MAPK (U0126) and EZH2 (EPZ6438/Tazemetostat) reverses this mechanism, thus restoring TDG ...

Structural basis of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer recognition by UV-DDB in the nucleosome

open access: yesNature Communications
In mammalian global genomic nucleotide excision repair, UV-DDB plays a central role in recognizing DNA lesions, such as 6-4 photoproducts and cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers, within chromatin.

A role for chromatin remodellers in replication of damaged DNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In eukaryotic cells, replication past damaged sites in DNA is regulated by the ubiquitination of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). Little is known about how this process is affected by chromatin structure.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

Toward a molecular understanding of yeast silent chromatin : roles for H4K16 acetylation and the Sir3 C-terminus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Discrete regions of the eukaryotic genome assume a heritable chromatin structure that is refractory to gene expression. In budding yeast, silent chromatin is characterized by the loading of the Silent Information Regulatory (Sir) proteins (Sir2, Sir3 and

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

Changes in the nuclear distribution of DNA polymerase alpha and PCNA/cyclin during the progress of the cell cycle, in a cell-free extract of Xenopus eggs [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
The nuclear distribution of DNA polymerase alpha and PCNA/cyclin in embryonic nuclei has been investigated, in a cell-free extract of Xenopus eggs that recapitulates a basic cell-cycle in vitro, by indirect immunofluorescence microscopy.

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
