Recruitment of Oct4 protein to UV-damaged chromatin in embryonic stem cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND: Oct4 is a specific marker of embryonic stem cell (ESC) pluripotency. However, little is known regarding how Oct4 responds to DNA damage. Here, we investigated whether Oct4 recognizes damaged chromatin in mouse ESCs stably expressing GFP-Oct4.

Chromatin architecture underpinning transcription elongation [PDF]

open access: yesNucleus, 2016
RNA polymerase 2 (pol2) associates with enhancers and promoters, followed by transcription initiation and subsequent pausing. Upon release, pol2 proceeds into productive elongation. A wide spread view of transcription holds that during elongation, pol2 and associated factors clear the promoter proximal region to track along the chromatin fiber until a ...

Perturbation of chromatin structure globally affects localization and recruitment of splicing factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Chromatin structure is an important factor in the functional coupling between transcription and mRNA processing, not only by regulating alternative splicing events, but also by contributing to exon recognition during constitutive splicing.

DNA methylation in chromatin - complexes and mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The DNA in the eukaryotic genome is packaged into chromatin whose basic repeating unit is the nucleosome consisting of 147bp of DNA wrapped around an octameric histone core.

Hierarchical folding and reorganization of chromosomes are linked to transcriptional changes in cellular differentiation

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2015
Mammalian chromosomes fold into arrays of megabase‐sized topologically associating domains (TADs), which are arranged into compartments spanning multiple megabases of genomic DNA.

Non-specific interactions are sufficient to explain the position of heterochromatic chromocenters and nucleoli in interphase nuclei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The organization of the eukaryote nucleus into functional compartments arises by self-organization both through specific protein–protein and protein–DNA interactions and non-specific interactions that lead to entropic effects, such as e.g.

Single Cell Imaging of Nuclear Architecture Changes

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2019
The dynamic architecture of chromatin, the macromolecular complex comprised primarily of DNA and histones, is vital for eukaryotic cell growth. Chemical and conformational changes to chromatin are important markers of functional and developmental ...

H2A.Z facilitates access of active and repressive complexes to chromatin in embryonic stem cell self-renewal and differentiation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
SummaryChromatin modifications have been implicated in the self-renewal and differentiation of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). However, the function of histone variant H2A.Z in ESCs remains unclear.
