Lid2 Is Required for Coordinating H3K4 and H3K9 Methylation of Heterochromatin and Euchromatin [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2008
In most eukaryotes, histone methylation patterns regulate chromatin architecture and function: methylation of histone H3 lysine-9 (H3K9) demarcates heterochromatin, whereas H3K4 methylation demarcates euchromatin. We show here that the S. pombe JmjC-domain protein Lid2 is a trimethyl H3K4 demethylase responsible for H3K4 hypomethylation in ...

Compensatory motor neuron response to chromatolysis in the murine hSOD1G93A model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014
We investigated neuronal self-defense mechanisms in a murine model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), the transgenic hSOD1G93A, during both the asymptomatic and symptomatic stages.

Epigenetic Histone Deacetylases Activity Assay in the Brain and Peripheral Organ Tissues

open access: yesCurrent Protocols, Volume 5, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are crucial epigenetic regulators involved in the modulation of gene expression and are promising therapeutic targets for treating various diseases, including central nervous system disorders and cancer. HDAC inhibitors exhibit neuroprotective, antiepileptogenic, and antidepressant properties in animal models ...

Phase Separation: A New Dimension to Understanding Tumor Biology and Therapy

open access: yesMedComm – Oncology, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2025.
Liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS) facilitates the assembly of biomolecular condensates by leveraging weak multivalent interactions. The low‐complexity domains, foldable domains of proteins, and nucleic acids provide multivalent interaction sites among different molecules and contribute to the formation of condensates.

Mg 2+ -dependent ATPase activity in triatomine salivary glands (Heteroptera, Triatominae)

open access: yesIheringia: Série Zoologia, 2017
Mg2+-ATPase activity was detected in the three salivary glands of adult triatomines, males and females, of Triatoma infestans (Klug, 1834) and Panstrongylus megistus (Burmeister, 1835) (Heteroptera, Triatominae). A predominance of binucleated cells in D1

Landscape of rare‐allele variants in cultivated and wild soybean genomes

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 2, June 2025.
Abstract Rare‐allele variants are important for crop improvement because they can be linked to important traits. However, genome‐wide distribution and annotation of rare‐allele variants have not been reported. We analyzed sequencing data from 1556 soybean accessions and found 6,533,419 rare‐allele variants in Glycine max and 941,274 in Glycine soja ...

In Vivo Localization of Fas-Associated Death Domain Protein in the Nucleus and Cytoplasm of Normal Thyroid and Liver Cells [PDF]

open access: yesopen autoimmunty journal 1 (2009) 27-32, 2009
FADD (Fas-associated death domain) is the main death receptor adaptor molecule that transmits apoptotic signal. Recently, FADD protein was shown to be expressed both in the cytoplasm and nucleus of in vitro cell lines. In contrast to the cytoplasmic FADD, the nuclear FADD was shown to protect cells from apoptosis.

Compressive Forces Induce Epigenetic Activation of Aged Human Dermal Fibroblasts Through ERK Signaling Pathway

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 24, Issue 6, June 2025.
Direct activation and rejuvenation of aged fibroblasts through the application of mechanical forces in a 3D spheroid culture model. The ERK signaling pathway was revealed as a key underlying mechanism. ABSTRACT Age‐related changes in human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) contribute to impaired wound healing and skin aging.

Cytology and Microscopy: Immunolocalization of Covalently Modified Histone Marks on Barley Mitotic Chromosomes

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2016
Barley is a diploid inbreeding crop with a genome of 5 GB organized into seven chromosomes. The relatively low chromosome number and their large size make barley an excellent model for chromosome cytogenetic studies of large genome cereal crops ...

Molecular Targets of Chromatin Repressive Mark H3K9me3 in Primate Progenitor Cells within Adult Neurogenic Niches

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2014
Histone 3 Lysine 9 (H3K9) methylation is known to be associated with pericentric heterochromatin and important in genomic stability. In this study, we show that trimethylation at H3K9 (H3K9me3) is enriched in an adult neural stem cell niche- the ...
