TP53BP2 Promotes Placental Autophagy and Preeclampsia via G9a and DNMT1 Cooperatively Modulating E2F1. [PDF]
G9a, and DNA Methyltransferase1 (DNMT1) cooperatively modulates E2F1 on the promoter of tumor suppressor p53‐binding protein 2 (TP53BP2) increased autophagy in preeclampsia. TP53BP2 promotes autophagy in trophoblasts through DNA methylation and H3K9me2‐mediated transcriptional regulation.

Characterization of DNA binding activities of over-expressedKpnI restriction endonuclease and modification methylase [PDF]
The genes encoding theKpnI restriction endonuclease and methyltransferase fromKlebsiella pneumoniae have been cloned and expressed inEscherchia coli using a two plasmid strategy. The gene forKpnI methylase with its promoter was cloned and expressed in pACYC184. Even though the methylase clone is in a low copy number plasmid pACMK, high level expression

DNA methylase modifications and other linezolid resistance mutations in coagulase-negative staphylococci in Italy [PDF]
Despite 10 years of clinical use, linezolid resistance in Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) is still a rare phenomenon. This study reports the mechanisms of resistance and strain types seen in clusters of linezolid-resistant CoNS from two different hospitals in Italy during the period 2008-09.Genes associated with ...

The EcoRV Modification Methylase Causes Considerable Bending of DNA upon Binding to Its Recognition Sequence GATATC [PDF]
The EcoRV methyltransferase modifies DNA by the introduction of a methyl group at the 6-NH2 position of the first deoxyadenosine in GATATC sequences. The enzyme forms a stable and specific complex with GATATC sequences in the presence of a nonreactive analogue, such as sinefungin, of its natural cofactor S-adenosyl-L-methionine.

Cloning and characterization of the HpaII methylase gene [PDF]
The HpaII restriction-modification system from Haemophilus parainfluenzae recognizes the DNA sequence CCGG. The gene for the HpaII methylase has been cloned into E. coli and its nucleotide sequence has been determined.

Phylogeographic evidence of cognate recognition site patterns and transformation efficiency differences in H. pylori: theory of strain dominance [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori has diverged in parallel to its human host, leading to distinct phylogeographic populations. Recent evidence suggests that in the current human mixing in Latin America, European H.

The sequence specificity domain of cytosine-C5 methylases [PDF]
Prokaryotic DNA[cytosine-C5]methyltransferases (m5C-methylases) share a common architectural arrangement of ten conserved sequence motifs. A series of eleven hybrids have been constructed between the HpaII (recognition sequence: Cm5CGG) and HhaI ...

Cfp1 is required for gene expression dependent H3K4me3 and H3K9 acetylation in embryonic stem cells [PDF]
BackgroundTrimethylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3) accumulates at promoters in a gene activity dependent manner. The Set1 complex is responsible for most H3K4me3 in somatic cells and contains the conserved subunit Cfp1, which is implicated in ...
