The distribution pattern of 5-methylcytosine in rye (Secale L.) chromosomes.
The rye (Secale L.) genome is large, and it contains many classes of repetitive sequences. Secale species differ in terms of genome size, heterochromatin content, and global methylation level; however, the organization of individual types of sequences in

Identification of methotrexate as a heterochromatin-promoting drug. [PDF]
Heterochromatin is a tightly packed form of DNA involved in gene silencing, chromosome segregation, and protection of genome stability. Heterochromatin is becoming more recognized in tumor suppression and may thus serve as a potential target for cancer ...

DNA methylation dynamics in aging: How far are we from understanding the mechanisms? [PDF]
DNA methylation is currently the most promising molecular marker for monitoring aging and predicting life expectancy. However, the mechanisms underlying age-related DNA methylation changes remain mostly undiscovered.Here we discuss the current knowledge ...

Distribution of constitutive heterochromatin in Triatoma melanocephala (Hemiptera, Triatominae)
In principle, Triatoma melanocephala was included in the Brasiliensis subcomplex on the basis of morphological parameters and geographical layout, since there were no other relevant data available in the literature. On the basis of karyotype, it has been proposed to exclude T. melanocephala, as well as of T. vitticeps and T.

Neurogenesis and the Epigenetic Landscape: Role of Histone Modifications and Chromatin Remodeling
Histone methylation and acetylation modulate gene expression by inducing chromatin condensation or relaxation, which in turn regulates transcriptional activity and impacts neurogenesis. ABSTRACT Aims The purpose of this review is to examine how epigenetic regulation particularly chromatin modification and histone methylation controls gene expression ...

A CRY-BIC negative-feedback circuitry regulating blue light sensitivity of Arabidopsis. [PDF]
Cryptochromes are blue light receptors that regulate various light responses in plants. Arabidopsis cryptochrome 1 (CRY1) and cryptochrome 2 (CRY2) mediate blue light inhibition of hypocotyl elongation and long-day (LD) promotion of floral initiation. It
