DNA Modifications: Function and Applications in Normal and Disease States

open access: yesBiology, 2014
Epigenetics refers to a variety of processes that have heritable effects on gene expression programs without changes in DNA sequence. Key players in epigenetic control are chemical modifications to DNA, histone, and non-histone chromosomal proteins ...

Global Analysis of the Relationship between JIL-1 Kinase and Transcription [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The ubiquitous tandem kinase JIL-1 is essential for Drosophila development. Its role in defining decondensed domains of larval polytene chromosomes is well established, but its involvement in transcription regulation has remained controversial.

The histone H3 lysine 36 methyltransferase HypB facilitates embryonic stem cell differentiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Histone H3 lysine 36 (H3K36) methylation was identified as a conserved modification from yeast to human. In yeast, biochemical characterization of the SET2 protein and genome wide mapping of H3K36me2 and K36me3 indicate that H3K36 methylation functions ...

Whole-genome analysis of histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation in Arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) plays critical roles in regulating animal development, and in several cases, H3K27me3 is also required for the proper expression of developmentally important genes in plants.

Epigenetics and airways disease

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2006
Epigenetics is the term used to describe heritable changes in gene expression that are not coded in the DNA sequence itself but by post-translational modifications in DNA and histone proteins. These modifications include histone acetylation, methylation,

The Methylation Status of DNA in Hepatocellular Carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesMinia Journal of Medical Research, 2019
The most common cause of cancer liver is hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and it is an important cause of cancer-related death all over the world (Crissien and Frenette, 2014).

Dissecting the roles of histone deacetylase 1 and 2 in the hematopoietic system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Reversible histone acetylation on lysine residues has been intensively studied as an epigenetic mark for gene activation in a variety of eukaryotes. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) act to repress gene expression by removing acetyl groups from histones and ...

Depletion of Uhrf1 inhibits chromosomal DNA replication in Xenopus egg extracts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
UHRF1 (ubiquitin-like, containing PHD and RING finger domains 1) has a well-established role in epigenetic regulation through the recognition of various histone marks and interaction with chromatin-modifying proteins.

Proteomic interrogation of human chromatin. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Chromatin proteins provide a scaffold for DNA packaging and a basis for epigenetic regulation and genomic maintenance. Despite understanding its functional roles, mapping the chromatin proteome (i.e. the "Chromatome") is still a continuing process. Here,
