The laminA/NF-Y protein complex reveals an unknown transcriptional mechanism on cell proliferation [PDF]
Lamin A is a component of the nuclear matrix that also controls proliferation by largely unknown mechanisms. NF-Y is a ubiquitous protein involved in cell proliferation composed of three subunits (-YA -YB -YC) all required for the DNA ...

An optimized protocol for chromatin immunoprecipitation from murine inguinal white adipose tissue
Summary: Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) protocols have been used to reveal protein-DNA interactions of various cell types and tissues; however, optimization is required for each specific type of sample.

The enzymes LSD1 and Set1A cooperate with the viral protein HBx to establish an active hepatitis B viral chromatin state [PDF]
Indexación: Web of ScienceWith about 350 million people chronically infected around the world hepatitis B is a major health problem. Template for progeny HBV synthesis is the viral genome, organized as a minichromosome (cccDNA) inside the hepatocyte ...

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP), Streptavidin and ATP-agarose Mediated Pull-down Analyses
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 ...

DNA-encoded nucleosome occupancy is associated with transcription levels in the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. [PDF]
BackgroundIn eukaryotic organisms, packaging of DNA into nucleosomes controls gene expression by regulating access of the promoter to transcription factors.

Impact of chromatin structures on DNA processing for genomic analyses. [PDF]
Chromatin has an impact on recombination, repair, replication, and evolution of DNA. Here we report that chromatin structure also affects laboratory DNA manipulation in ways that distort the results of chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) experiments. We

TBL1 is required for the mesenchymal phenotype of transformed breast cancer cells [PDF]
The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and its reversion (MET) are related to tumor cell dissemination and migration, tumor circulating cell generation, cancer stem cells, chemoresistance, and metastasis formation.

Development of an efficient chromatin immunoprecipitation method to investigate protein-DNA interaction in oleaginous castor bean seeds. [PDF]
Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) is usually a reliable technique to find the binding sites of a transcription factor. In the current study, we developed a suitable ChIP method using developing castor bean seeds.
