Inferring coarse-grain histone-DNA interaction potentials from high-resolution structures of the nucleosome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The histone-DNA interaction in the nucleosome is a fundamental mechanism of genomic compaction and regulation, which remains largely unkown despite a growing structural knowledge of the complex. Here, we propose a framework for the extraction of a nanoscale histone-DNA force-field from a collection of high-resolution structures, which may be adapted to

New Insights in Transcriptional Regulation of the Ethylene Response in Arabidopsis

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
As any living organisms, plants must respond to a wide variety of environmental stimuli. Plant hormones regulate almost all aspects of plant growth and development.

Crosstalks between NOD1 and Histone H2A Contribute to Host Defense against Streptococcus agalactiae Infection in Zebrafish

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2021
Correlation studies about NOD1 and histones have not been reported. In the present study, we report the functional correlation between NOD1 and the histone H2A variant in response to Streptococcus agalactiae infection.

Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors as Anticancer Drugs

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2017
Carcinogenesis cannot be explained only by genetic alterations, but also involves epigenetic processes. Modification of histones by acetylation plays a key role in epigenetic regulation of gene expression and is controlled by the balance between histone ...

MicroRNAs as new Characters in the Plot between Epigenetics and Prostate Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2011
Prostate cancer (PCA) still represents a leading cause of death. An increasing number of studies have documented that microRNAs (miRNAs), a subgroup of non-coding RNAs with gene regulatory functions, are differentially expressed in PCA respect to the ...

First report of root and crown rot caused by Dactylonectria novozelandica on strawberry in Uruguay

open access: yesAgrociencia Uruguay, 2022
Since 2015, a high mortality rate of strawberry plants has been observed in the north of Uruguay related to crown and root diseases caused by a pathogens complex. In 2016, associated with the death of plants, Cylindrocarpon spp.

The First Analysis of Synaptonemal Complexes in Jawless Vertebrates: Chromosome Synapsis and Transcription Reactivation at Meiotic Prophase I in the Lamprey Lampetra fluviatilis (Petromyzontiformes, Cyclostomata)

open access: yesLife, 2023
Transcription is known to be substage-specific in meiotic prophase I. If transcription is reactivated in the mid pachytene stage in mammals when synapsis is completed, then this process is observed in the zygotene stage in insects.

The Histone Database [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic 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.

DOT1L O-GlcNAcylation promotes its protein stability and MLL-fusion leukemia cell proliferation

open access: yesCell Reports, 2021
Summary: Histone lysine methylation functions at the interface of the extracellular environment and intracellular gene expression. DOT1L is a versatile histone H3K79 methyltransferase with a prominent role in MLL-fusion leukemia, yet little is known ...

Structural basis for the Rad6 activation by the Bre1 N-terminal domain

open access: yeseLife, 2023
The mono-ubiquitination of the histone protein H2B (H2Bub1) is a highly conserved histone post-translational modification that plays critical roles in many fundamental processes. In yeast, this modification is catalyzed by the conserved Bre1–Rad6 complex.
