An Essential Viral Transcription Activator Modulates Chromatin Dynamics. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2016
Although ICP4 is the only essential transcription activator of herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1), its mechanisms of action are still only partially understood.

Analysis of the Histone H3.1 Interactome: A Suitable Chaperone for the Right Event [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2015
Despite minimal disparity at the sequence level, mammalian H3 variants bind to distinct sets of polypeptides. Although histone H3.1 predominates in cycling cells, our knowledge of the soluble complexes that it forms en route to deposition or following eviction from chromatin remains limited. Here, we provide a comprehensive analysis of the H3.1-binding

DNA polymerase epsilon binds histone H3.1-H4 and recruits MORC1 to mediate meiotic heterochromatin condensation

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2022
Heterochromatin is essential for genomic integrity and stability in eukaryotes. The mechanisms that regulate meiotic heterochromatin formation remain largely undefined. Here, we show that the catalytic subunit (POL2A) ofArabidopsisDNA polymerase epsilon (POL ε) is required for proper formation of meiotic heterochromatin.

Evaluation of plasma nucleosome concentrations in dogs with a variety of common cancers and in healthy dogs

open access: yesBMC Veterinary Research, 2022
Background Cell free DNA, in the form of nucleosomes, is released into circulation during apoptosis and necrosis in a variety of diseases. They are small fragments of chromosomes that are composed of DNA wrapped around a histone core made of four ...

Emerging roles of telomeric chromatin alterations in cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Telomeres, the nucleoprotein structures that cap the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, play important and multiple roles in tumorigenesis. Functional telomeres need the establishment of a protective chromatin structure based on the interplay between the ...

Interactions With Histone H3 & Tools to Study Them

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Histones are an integral part of chromatin and thereby influence its structure, dynamics, and functions. The effects of histone variants, posttranslational modifications, and binding proteins is therefore of great interest.

A pediatric bithalamic high grade glioma with concomitant H3K27M and EGFR mutations

open access: yesThe Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2022
Background. Despite many treatment approaches, survival rates in high grade glial tumors are still not at the desired level. One of the cause of this failure might be that although having similar histologic features, they may display different ...

Replication-Uncoupled Histone Deposition during Adenovirus DNA Replication [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In infected cells, the chromatin structure of the adenovirus genome DNA plays critical roles in its genome functions. Previously, we reported that in early phases of infection, incoming viral DNA is associated with both viral core protein VII and ...

Dynamics of Asymmetric and Symmetric Divisions of Muscle Stem Cells In Vivo and on Artificial Niches

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: Stem cells can be maintained through symmetric cell divisions (SCDs) and asymmetric cell divisions (ACDs). How and when these divisions occur in vivo in vertebrates is poorly understood.

Epigenetic profiles of elevated cell free circulating H3.1 nucleosomes as potential biomarkers for non-Hodgkin lymphoma

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
During cell death, nucleosomes, the basic structural unit of chromatin, are released into the blood stream and elevated levels have been found in the plasma of patients with solid cancers.
