Structural basis of RNAPII transcription on the nucleosome containing histone variant H2A.B

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal
H2A.B is a distant histone H2A variant associated with actively transcribed regions of the genome, suggesting its positive role in promoting transcription.

Circular RNA expression landscapes in myelodysplastic neoplasms: Associations with mutational signatures and disease progression

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In this explorative study, the abundance of circular RNA molecules in bone marrow stem cells was found to be elevated in patients with high‐risk myelodysplastic neoplasms, and to be associated with an increased risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia.

Base-editing-mediated dissection of a γ-globin cis-regulatory element for the therapeutic reactivation of fetal hemoglobin expression

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Antoniou and colleagues used base editing to generate a variety of mutations inducing γ-globin and rescue the β-hemoglobinopathy phenotype. This strategy was safe and effective in long-term repopulating hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells.

Chromatin and Epigenetics [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2015
Wrapping DNA around protein beads, to form so-called nucleosomes, is an ingenious invention of nature allowing the condensation of an enormous amount of genomic information into a tiny package.

EDNRB‐dependent endothelin signaling reduces proliferation and promotes proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition in gliomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

Somatic mutational landscape in von Hippel–Lindau familial hemangioblastoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The causes of central nervous system (CNS) hemangioblastoma in Von Hippel–Lindau (vHL) disease are unclear. We used Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) on familial hemangioblastoma to investigate events that underlie tumor development. Our findings suggest that VHL loss creates a permissive environment for tumor formation, while additional alterations ...

In vitro Histone H3 Cleavage Assay for Yeast and Chicken Liver H3 Protease

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
Histone proteins are subjected to a wide array of reversible and irreversible post-translational modifications (PTMs) (Bannister and Kouzarides, 2011; Azad and Tomar, 2014).

CCDC80 suppresses high‐grade serous ovarian cancer migration via negative regulation of B7‐H3

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PAX8 is a lineage‐specific master regulator of transcription in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) progression. We show for the first time that PAX8 facilitates proliferation and metastasis by repressing the cell autonomous tumor suppressor CCDC80 and inducing B7‐H3 expression.

Incorporation of a tag helps to overcome expression variability in a recombinant host

open access: yesBiotechnology Reports, 2016
Epigenetics have witnessed a renewed interest over the past decade and assays with recombinant histones has become an important tool for uncovering various aspects of histone biology.
