Sirtuins in Epigenetic Regulation [PDF]

open access: yesChemical Reviews, 2015
1.1. Discovery of Sirtuins The founding member of sirtuin is the yeast-silencing information regulator 2 (SIR2) protein, one of four proteins (SIR1–4) required for silencing the mating-type information loci in yeast.1 SIR2–4, but not SIR1, are also required for gene silencing at telomeres.2 SIR2 also mediates gene silencing at the rDNA (rDNA) loci ...

Epigenetic regulation of hematopoiesis [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hematology, 2012
Epigenetic regulation is required not only for development, but also for tissue homeostasis, which is maintained via the self-renewal and differentiation of somatic stem cells. Accumulating evidence suggests that epigenetic regulators play critical roles in the maintenance of both self-renewing hematopoietic stem cells and leukemic stem cells.

Epigenetic regulation of adaptive responses of forest tree species to the environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Epigenetic variation is likely to contribute to the phenotypic plasticity and adaptative capacity of plant species, and may be especially important for long-lived organisms with complex life cycles, including forest trees.

Epigenetic Mechanisms of Inflammasome Regulation [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
The innate immune system represents the host’s first-line defense against pathogens, dead cells or environmental factors. One of the most important inflammatory pathways is represented by the activation of the NOD-like receptor (NLR) protein family. Some NLRs induce the assembly of large caspase-1-activating complexes called inflammasomes.

Epigenetic regulation of myogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesEpigenetics, 2009
Adult skeletal muscle provides a unique paradigm for studying stem to differentiated cell transitions. In response to environmental stress, quiescent muscle stem cells (satellite cells) are activated and proliferative, at which stage they can either differentiate and fuse to form new muscle fibers or alternatively self-renew and maintain the muscle ...

The nuclear pore complex : its role in chromatin structure and RNA export [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Epigenetic regulation of gene expression is a relatively new and rapidly developing research field. It studies the mechanisms of regulation of gene expression, which although heritable, occur independently of changes in the DNA sequence and certainly aid

Role of histone methylation in paternal transmission of epigenetic information [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
During the development of multi-cellular organisms, one genome gives rise to multiple differentiated cell types. This is achieved by sequence specific transcription factors and different epigenetic mechanisms, which collaborate in reading the genetic ...

Novel insights into the epigenetic regulation of Plasmodium falciparum virulence genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Plasmodium falciparum malaria still places a major health burden upon the developing world. The high virulence of this parasite is linked to the variegated expression of single P.
