Chromatin information content landscapes inform transcription factor and DNA interactions

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Interaction between transcription factors and chromatin is fundamental for genome organization and regulation. Here, the authors use information theory to measure signatures of organized chromatin resulting from transcription factor-chromatin ...

Uncovering Combinatorial Interactions in Chromatin [PDF]

open access: yesEpigenomics, 2011
The DNA in our bodies is wrapped around octamers of histone proteins to form nucleosomes. This structural organization facilitates packaging of the entire genome into a single nucleus but is also a platform for post-translational modifications which have functional roles within the cell.

Tetranucleosome Interactions Drive Chromatin Folding [PDF]

open access: yesACS Central Science, 2021
The multiscale organizational structure of chromatin in eukaryotic cells is instrumental to DNA transcription, replication, and repair. At mesoscopic length scales, nucleosomes pack in a manner that serves to regulate gene expression through condensation and expansion of the genome.

Quantitative analysis of chromatin compaction in living cells using FLIM-FRET [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present a quantitative Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based assay using multiphoton fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) to measure chromatin compaction at the scale of nucleosomal arrays in live cells. The assay uses a human cell

lncRNA 5430416N02Rik Promotes the Proliferation of Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells by Activating Mid1 Expression through 3D Chromatin Architecture

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2020
Summary: Both 3D chromatin architecture and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play essential roles in pluripotency maintenance. However, whether lncRNAs are involved in organizing 3D chromatin structure remains largely unexplored.

The solid and liquid states of chromatin

open access: yesEpigenetics & Chromatin, 2021
The review begins with a concise description of the principles of phase separation. This is followed by a comprehensive section on phase separation of chromatin, in which we recount the 60 years history of chromatin aggregation studies, discuss the ...

The Adenomatous Polyposis Coli protein contributes to normal compaction of mitotic chromatin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The tumour suppressor <i>Adenomatous Polyposis Coli</i> (APC) is required for proper mitosis; however, the exact role of APC in mitosis is not understood.

Enrichment analysis of Alu elements with different spatial chromatin proximity in the human genome

open access: yesProtein & Cell, 2016
Transposable elements (TEs) have no longer been totally considered as “junk DNA” for quite a time since the continual discoveries of their multifunctional roles in eukaryote genomes.

Haplotype mapping of H3K27me3-associated chromatin interactions defines topological regulation of gene silencing in rice

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
Summary: Histone modification H3K27me3 is an important chromatin mark that plays vital roles in repressing expression of developmental genes. Here, we construct high-resolution 3D genome maps using long-read chromatin interaction analysis by paired-end ...

Nuclear factor I genomic binding associates with chromatin boundaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: The Nuclear Factor I (NFI) family of DNA binding proteins (also called CCAAT box transcription factors or CTF) is involved in both DNA replication and gene expression regulation.
