Arabidopsis SWR1-associated protein methyl-CpG-binding domain 9 is required for histone H2A.Z deposition. [PDF]
, 2019 Deposition of the histone variant H2A.Z by the SWI2/SNF2-Related 1 chromatin remodeling complex (SWR1-C) is important for gene regulation in eukaryotes, but the composition of the Arabidopsis SWR1-C has not been thoroughly characterized.

Intrinsic specificity of a ‘core’ TIP60 acetyltransferase complex in Drosophila
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.The intrinsic substrate selectivity of the Drosophila TIP60‐core acetyltransferase was determined using synthetic nucleosome arrays. Targeted mass spectrometry revealed site‐specific acetylation of histones H2A, H2A.V, and H4, uncovering distinct acetylation rates and patterns across individual lysines.

The Role of the Histone Variant H2A.Z in Metazoan Development
Journal of Developmental Biology, 2022 During the emergence and radiation of complex multicellular eukaryotes from unicellular ancestors, transcriptional systems evolved by becoming more complex to provide the basis for this morphological diversity.

The true story of Yeti, the "abominable" heterochromatic gene of drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
, 2019 The Drosophila Yeti gene (CG40218) was originally identified by recessive lethal mutation and subsequently mapped to the deep pericentromeric heterochromatin of chromosome 2. Functional studies have shown that Yeti encodes a 241 amino acid protein called

The environmentally responsive plant epigenome: insights from jasmonate signaling
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary The environmental responsiveness of the plant epigenome is essential for spatiotemporally precise gene regulation, enabling plants to adapt to external cues. Elucidating the mechanisms underlying this responsiveness is therefore fundamental to deciphering the molecular logic of plant‐environment interactions.

H2A.Z overexpression promotes cellular proliferation of breast cancer cells [PDF]
Cell Cycle, 2010 We recently showed that histone H2A.Z, as well as members of the ATP-dependent p400 chromatin remodeling complex (p400.com), are essential components of estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) signaling. More specifically, we showed that H2A.Z and p400.com are incorporated into the promoter regions of ERalpha target genes only upon gene induction, and also ...

Epigenetic regulation of mycorrhizal symbioses: from plastic responses to transgenerational legacies
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Mycorrhizal symbioses represent one of the most widespread and ecologically significant plant–microbe interactions, shaping plant nutrition, stress resilience, and ecosystem functioning. Beyond their role in nutrient exchange and systemic defense, growing evidence suggests that these symbioses also influence plant plasticity within and across ...

The Swr1 chromatin-remodeling complex prevents genome instability induced by replication fork progression defects. [PDF]
, 2018 Genome instability is associated with tumorigenesis. Here, we identify a role for the histone Htz1, which is deposited by the Swr1 chromatin-remodeling complex (SWR-C), in preventing genome instability in the absence of the replication fork/replication ...

Integrated GWAS and Fst analysis identify flowering‐time regulatory genes in maize
The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.Abstract Flowering time in maize is a complex quantitative trait regulated by multiple genes, and its genetic variation mechanisms remain to be fully elucidated. In this study, we phenotypically evaluated flowering‐related traits (days to tasseling, days to pollen shedding, days to silking) across six different environments using an association ...

DNA Methylation, H2A.Z, and the Regulation of Constitutive Expression [PDF]
Cold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology, 2012 The most well-studied function of DNA methylation in eukaryotic cells is the transcriptional silencing of genes and transposons. More recent results showed that many eukaryotes methylate the bodies of genes as well and that this methylation correlates with transcriptional activity rather than repression.
