Pharmacological Inhibition of LSD1 for Cancer Treatment
Molecules, 2018 Lysine-specific demethylase 1A (LSD1, also named KDM1A) is a demethylase that can remove methyl groups from histones H3K4me1/2 and H3K9me1/2. It is aberrantly expressed in many cancers, where it impedes differentiation and contributes to cancer cell ...

Nucleus, 2023 Histone locus bodies (HLBs) are biomolecular condensates that assemble at replication-dependent (RD) histone genes in animal cells. These genes produce unique mRNAs that are not polyadenylated and instead end in a conserved 3’ stem loop critical for ...

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

The Core Histone-binding Region of the Murine Cytomegalovirus 89K Immediate Early Protein [PDF]
, 1991 The gene regulatory immediate early protein, pp89, of murine cytomegalovirus interacts with both DNA-associated and isolated histones in vitro. We characterized the histone-binding region of pp89 and its cellular localization during cell division to ...

Histone demethylase KDM3B protects against ferroptosis by upregulating SLC7A11
FEBS Open Bio, 2020 Ferroptosis is a type of adaptive cell death driven by cellular metabolism and iron‐dependent lipid peroxidation. Though multiple genes (including SLC7A11 and GPX4) have been demonstrated to play key roles in ferroptosis, little is known about the ...

Crosstalk Between mRNA 3'-End Processing and Epigenetics
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 The majority of eukaryotic genes produce multiple mRNA isoforms by using alternative poly(A) sites in a process called alternative polyadenylation (APA).

Histone Deacetylases and Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors in Neuroblastoma [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that play a key role in regulating gene expression by remodeling chromatin structure. An imbalance of histone acetylation caused by deregulated HDAC expression and activity is known to promote tumor progression in a number of tumor types, including neuroblastoma, the most common solid tumor in children ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Histones are small polycationic proteins located in the cell nucleus. Together, DNA and histones are integral constituents of the nucleosomes. Upon apoptosis, necrosis and infection - induced cell death, histones are released from the cell.

Role of histone tyrosines in nucleosome formation and histone-histone interaction.
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1984 We have studied the functional properties of iodinated histones. Isolated, denatured histones were iodinated at trace levels and then renatured together with carrier histones and high molecular weight DNA to form nucleohistone. Nucleosomes were prepared from the reconstitute using micrococcal nuclease, and the relative representations of the individual

Nucleic Acids Research, 2002 Histone proteins are often noted for their high degree of sequence conservation. It is less often recognized that the histones are a heterogeneous protein family. Furthermore, several classes of non-histone proteins containing the histone fold motif exist.
