Prenatal dexamethasone exposure (PDE) programs persistent podocyte developmental injury and adult glomerulosclerosis. Mechanistically, glucocorticoid receptor (GR) binds the miR‐135a‐5p promoter and recruits the histone acetyltransferase p300, increasing promoter histone acetylation and sustaining miR‐135a‐5p expression. Elevated miR‐135a‐5p suppresses

Architectural Organization of Dinoflagellate Liquid Crystalline Chromosomes
Dinoflagellates have some of the largest genome sizes, but lack architectural nucleosomes. Their liquid crystalline chromosomes (LCCs) are the only non-architectural protein-mediated chromosome packaging systems, having high degrees of DNA superhelicity,

A new family of intrinsically disordered proteins: structural characterization of the major phasin PhaF from Pseudomonas putida KT2440. [PDF]
Phasins are intracellular polyhydroxyalkanoat4e (PHA)-associated proteins involved in the stabilization of these bacterial carbon storage granules. Despite its importance in PHA metabolism and regulation, only few reports have focused so far on the ...

Accessing New Phenanthroline–Oxazine Scaffolds as Copper‐Dependent DNA Damaging Probes
New phenanthroline–oxazine ligands derived from natural amino acids are synthesized through an optimized, predictive strategy. When coordinated to copper, these scaffolds display tunable DNA binding, groove selectivity, and oxidative cleavage activity, revealing clear structure activity relationships and expanding the toolbox of copper‐dependent ...

Evidence for a Solenoid Phase of Supercoiled DNA
In mechanical manipulation experiments, a single DNA molecule overwound at constant force undergoes a discontinuous drop in extension as it buckles and forms a superhelical loop (a plectoneme).

Competition between B-Z and B-L transitions in a single DNA molecule: Computational studies [PDF]
Under negative torsion, DNA adopts left-handed helical forms, such as Z-DNA and L-DNA. Using the random copolymer model developed for a wormlike chain, we represent a single DNA molecule with structural heterogeneity as a helical chain consisting of ...

Electroacupuncture (EA) reduces H3K18ac enrichment at the Ubp1 promoter in the hippocampus in chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH) rats by upregulating SIRT7‐mediated deacetylation, thereby suppressing the expression of UBP1. This EA‐dependent epigenetic regulation increases dendritic spine density and enhances long‐term potentiation, leading to ...

The restricted access of regulatory factors to their binding sites on DNA wrapped around the nucleosomes is generally interpreted in terms of molecular shielding exerted by nucleosomal structure and internucleosomal interactions.

Superhelical destabilization in regulatory regions of stress response genes. [PDF]
Stress-induced DNA duplex destabilization (SIDD) analysis exploits the known structural and energetic properties of DNA to predict sites that are susceptible to strand separation under negative superhelical stress.
