Epigenetic Alterations in Human Papillomavirus-Associated Cancers

open access: yesViruses, 2017
Approximately 15–20% of human cancers are caused by viruses, including human papillomaviruses (HPVs). Viruses are obligatory intracellular parasites and encode proteins that reprogram the regulatory networks governing host cellular signaling pathways ...

Dissecting the roles of histone deacetylase 1 and 2 in the hematopoietic system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Reversible histone acetylation on lysine residues has been intensively studied as an epigenetic mark for gene activation in a variety of eukaryotes. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) act to repress gene expression by removing acetyl groups from histones and ...

Helicobacter pylori-induced histone modification, associated gene expression in gastric epithelial cells, and its implication in pathogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Histone modifications are critical in regulating gene expression, cell cycle, cell proliferation, and development. Relatively few studies have investigated whether Helicobacter pylori, the major cause of human gastric diseases, affects histone ...

Similarities between the Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) Nuclear Protein EBNA1 and the Pioneer Transcription Factor FoxA: Is EBNA1 a “Bookmarking” Oncoprotein that Alters the Host Cell Epigenotype?

open access: yesPathogens, 2012
EBNA1, a nuclear protein expressed in all EBV-associated neoplasms is indispensable for the maintenance of the viral episomes in latently infected cells.

Impact of histone H4 lysine 20 methylation on 53BP1 responses to chromosomal double strand breaks. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Recruitment of 53BP1 to chromatin flanking double strand breaks (DSBs) requires γH2AX/MDC1/RNF8-dependent ubiquitination of chromatin and interaction of 53BP1 with histone H4 methylated on lysine 20 (H4K20me). Several histone methyltransferases have been

Histone acetyltransferase 1 is a succinyltransferase for histones and non-histones and promotes tumorigenesis

open access: yesThe EMBO Reports, 2020
Lysine succinylation (Ksucc) is an evolutionarily conserved and widespread post-translational modification. Histone acetyltransferase 1 (HAT1) is a type B histone acetyltransferase, regulating the acetylation of both histone and non-histone proteins. However, the role of HAT1 in succinylation modulation remains unclear.

Epigenetic Regulation of Autophagy: A Path to the Control of Autoimmunity

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Autoimmune diseases are a significant cause of debilitation and mortality globally and are in need of cost-effective therapeutics. Autophagy is a cellular pathway that facilitates immune modulation involved in both pathogen control and autoimmunity ...

The histone database: A comprehensive resource for histones and histone fold‐containing proteins [PDF]

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 2005
AbstractTheThe Histone Database is a curated and searchable collection of full‐length sequences and structures of histones and nonhistone proteins containing histone‐like folds, compiled from major public databases. Several new histone fold‐containing proteins have been identified, including the huntingtin‐interacting protein HYPM.

Epigenetic Modifications to H3K9 in Renal Tubulointerstitial Cells after Unilateral Ureteric Obstruction and TGF-β1 Stimulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2017
Introduction: Epigenetic regulation of fibrogenesis through post-translational histone modifications (marks) may be a key determinant of progression in renal disease. In this study, we examined the distribution and acquisition of histone 3 Lysine 9 (H3K9)

Association of Histones With Coagulofibrinolytic Responses and Organ Dysfunction in Adult Post-cardiac Arrest Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundPatients successfully resuscitated from cardiac arrest often develop organ dysfunction caused by systemic inflammation and increased coagulation, leading to disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC).
