Sequential chromatin immunoprecipitation to detect SUMOylated MeCP2 in neurons
Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2016 The small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) is a short peptide that can be covalently linked to proteins altering their function. SUMOylation is an essential post-translational modification (PTM).

STAR Protocols, 2023 Summary: Pioneer transcription factors (TFs) can directly establish higher-order chromatin interactions to instruct gene transcription. Here, we present a protocol for capturing TF-mediated 3D chromatin interactions using affinity tag-based bridge linker

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

MeCP2 interacts with chromosomal microRNAs in brain
Epigenetics, 2017 Although methyl CpG binding domain protein-2 (MeCP2) is commonly understood to function as a silencing factor at methylated DNA sequences, recent studies also show that MeCP2 can bind unmethylated sequences and coordinate gene activation.

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.

RNA‐related functions of BRCA2 in transcription, replication, and genome stability
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Beyond its role in homologous recombination, BRCA2 regulates R‐loop homeostasis, DNA–RNA hybrid resolution, RNA polymerase II dynamics, and transcriptional activation. Disruption of any of these functions can contribute to genome instability, inflammatory signaling, and tumorigenesis. BRCA2 is a central tumor suppressor protein best known for its roles

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP), Streptavidin and ATP-agarose Mediated Pull-down Analyses
Bio-Protocol, 2013 Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) nuclear antigen 2 (EBNA2) induces expression of both viral and cellular genes in virus infected B cells by mimicking activated Notch receptors (Notch-IC) that mediate transcription activation through binding to the repressing ...

Loss of IGF‐1R impairs DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin leading to defective end‐joining
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.IGF‐1R promotes radioresistance by facilitating DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin, enabling non‐homologous end‐joining (NHEJ) repair of double‐strand breaks. Inhibition or loss of IGF‐1R disrupts this recruitment to damage sites, driving compensatory reliance on microhomology‐mediated end‐joining (MMEJ) repair.
