Eukaryotic chromatin is organized into functional domains, that are characterized by distinct proteomic compositions and specific nuclear positions. In contrast to cellular organelles surrounded by lipid membranes, the composition of distinct chromatin ...

Targeting and regulatory mechanisms in chromosome-wide gene regulation using Drosophila melanogaster as a model organism [PDF]
Tese de mestrado. Biologia (Biologia Molecular e Genética). Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de Ciências, 2010O cromossoma 4 de Drosophila melanogaster é muito heterocromático, sendo rico em DNA satélite e DNA de elementos transposáveis. Apesar das suas

Conserved domains control heterochromatin localization and silencing properties of SU(VAR)3-7 [PDF]
The Drosophila protein SU(VAR)3-7 is essential for fly viability, chromosome structure, and heterochromatin formation. We report that searches in silico and in vitro for homologues of SU(VAR)3-7 were successful within, but not outside, the Drosophila ...

Heterochromatin and the molecular mechanisms of 'parent-of-origin' effects in animals. [PDF]
Twenty five years ago it was proposed that conserved components of constitutive heterochromatin assemble heterochromatinlike complexes in euchromatin and this could provide a general mechanism for regulating heritable (cell-to-cell) changes in gene ...

The onset of homologous chromosome pairing during Drosophila melanogaster embryogenesis. [PDF]
We have determined the position within the nucleus of homologous sites of the histone gene cluster in Drosophila melanogaster using in situ hybridization and high-resolution, three-dimensional wide field fluorescence microscopy.

Long-range silencing and position effects at telomeres and centromeres: parallels and differences [PDF]
Most of the human genome is compacted into heterochromatin, a form that encompasses multiple forms of inactive chromatin structure. Transcriptional silencing mechanisms in budding and fission yeasts have provided genetically tractable models for ...
